Water under pressure
2001
Rodda, J. C.
The world's water resources are currently under more stresses and strains than ever before. These forces on water will mount as the century unfolds, causing the water scarcity affecting the Middle East, parts of Africa and southern Asia at present, to develop into a world water crisis. This paper examines the capability of society to deal with this crisis and some of the measures that might be undertaken to alleviate it. In particular, it advocates the adoption of the ecosystem approach to river basin management and it discusses the response of the hydrological community to these problems.
