Description - Global Hydrology by J.A.A. Jones
Illustrating the importance of understanding hydrological processes and pathways as a means of effective and safe management, this work describes current management practices, past environmental impact, options for improving water supply and protecting the environment.

Key topics discussed include: the interrelationship between water supply and hydrological processes at local, regional and global levels; the value of monitoring and modelling methods for protecting water supplies and the environment; floods and droughts, in the context of risk assessment and management of strategies; and the potential impacts of "hydropolitics" and global warming.
