{"product_id":"9783030668129","title":"Climate Change and Groundwater: Planning and Adaptations for a Changing and Uncertain Future","description":"This book attempts to bridge the gap between the climate change research and decision-making communities by exploring the impacts of climate change on groundwater from a more applied perspective. Global climate change will impact groundwater demands, quality, and available supplies, and rising sea level may cause water tables to rise, inundating low-lying coastal areas. Groundwater will increasingly be needed to perform a stabilization role in mitigating fluctuations in the supply of surface waters, serving as a buffer against droughts. Climate change has become a frequent subject in the mass media, and the academic literature on the subject is now enormous. An impediment to climate change adaptation with respect to water is a poor link between the climate change research community and the actual decision-makers responsible for water supply planning. Key issues explored are methods for evaluating potential impacts on climate change on local groundwater systems, the adaptation of decision-making process, and how climate change adaptation can be mainstreamed into the water supply planning.","brand":"Robert Maliva","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47598758691134,"sku":"9783030668129","price":4097.29,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9783030668129.jpg?v=1707700191","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9783030668129","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
