Urban Water Cycle Processes and Interactions

"The volume begins by introducing the urban water cycle concept and the need for integrated or total management. It then explores the manifold hydrological components of the cycle, the diverse elements of urban infrastructure and water services, and the various effects of urbanization on the environment from the atmosphere and surface waters to wetlands, soils and groundwater, as well as biodiversity. A concluding series of recommendations for effective urban water management summarize the important findings set forth here."--BOOK JACKET.Marsalek, Jiri is the author of 'Urban Water Cycle Processes and Interactions', published 2007 under ISBN 9780415453462 and ISBN 0415453461.
