Short description: |
Today's climate variability already has a large impact on water supply and
protection. Millions of people are affected every year by droughts and
floods. Future climate change is likely to make things worse. Many people
within the water sector are aware that climate change is expected to have
serious consequences for water resource management, but they are
unsure how to incorporate climate information into their management
structures. The main purpose of the book is to offer a compendium of
specific adaptation strategies
