Compared with inland water storages and desalination technology coastal reservoirs are a nature - based water solution without disturbing the environment. This book mainly answers the questions of what the coastal reservoir technology is where we should construct coastal reservoirs and how to supply sufficient high - quality and affordable water to the world with minimum environmental\/social impacts. Chapter 1 reviews modes of water resources development in the history along with current problems and reasons. Chapter 2 discusses the definition of coastal reservoirs its classifications and applications and the SPP\/downstream water management strategy. Other chapters analyse water crisis in every continent as well as their water solutions. The possible coastal reservoir for each major river is suggested as well. Without freshwater no one can survive. Likewise without sufficient high - quality and affordable freshwater no community can achieve sustainable development. However water is also a killer when it is too much (floods) too dirty (pollution) and too turbid. Different from other books this resource shows how to solve these water problems. Coastal reservoirs and SPP strategy are suggested to develop floodwater in a safe way in coastal and inland regions respectively. Solution of water - food - energy - ecosystem nexus needs a paradigm shift from upstream to downstream water management i. e. from mountainous dams to coastal reservoirs which conserves the precious clean freshwater in seawater environment.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Coastal Reservoir Technology And Applications\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Yang Shu - Qing (Associate Professor School Of Civil Mining And Environmental Engineering University Of Wollongong Nsw Australia)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Elsevier - Health Sciences Division\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780323907903\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 652 Pages, 90 Illustrations (20 In Full Color); Illustrations, Unspecified\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 2\/17\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Water Supply \u0026amp; Treatment","brand":"Yang Shu - Qing (Associate Professor School Of Civil Mining And Environmental Engineering University Of Wollongong Nsw Australia)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51333080580401,"sku":"IN-G-9780323907903","price":203.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780323907903.jpg?v=1746879363","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780323907903-coastal-reservoir-technology-and-applications","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
