About this book

<div><!--block-->Any pathway for economic progress has to be both knowledge-driven, and job-led. Waters, soils and minerals constitute the most significant natural resources. Their use did provide immense benefits to the community, but there is a flip side to the picture in the form of severe environmental degradation, with adverse consequences on health and quality of life. The book draws attention to ways and means of using science and technology innovatively to optimize the benefits of resource use, while avoiding or at least minimizing, the adverse impact through practices such as the beneficial use of wastes. Also, the volume could serve as instructional material to give end-use orientation. The book not only gives an account of the problems in the management of natural resources, but also draws attention to the new technologies that are available to remedy the situation. It will be useful to university students and professionals in the area of natural resources management, earth and environmental sciences and technologies, agriculture, ecology, civil engineering, geography, sociology, etc.<br><strong>ContentsUnit – I Sustainability in Resource Management1.</strong> Sustainability in Resource Industries : Implications for Management, Technology and Education<strong>Unit – II Water Resources2.</strong> Management of Groundwater Resources<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <strong>3.</strong> Geomorphology of River Basins and Freshwater Aquifers.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><strong>4. </strong>Geophysics in the Study of Coastal Salinization<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <strong>5.</strong> Multi-thematic Remote Sensing in Water Resources Management<strong>6.</strong> GIS and Remote Sensing in Watershed Management<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <strong>7.</strong> Water Resources Systems Engineering<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <strong>8.</strong> Watershed Management for Drought Mitigation<strong>9.</strong> Socio-Economic Impact of Drought<br /> <br /> <br /><strong>10.</strong> Aberrated Climate Systems and their Impact on Water Resources <strong>11.</strong> Impact of Land-use and Land-cover on Water Quality<strong>12.</strong> Geomatics for Watershed Management<strong>13.</strong> Paradigms of Water Resources Development<strong>Unit – III </strong><br /> <br /><strong>Soil Resources14.</strong> In situ Conservation of Rainwater on Alfisols in a Semiarid Region<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><strong>Unit – IV Mineral Resources15. </strong>Mineral Resources Management Methodologies<br><strong>About the Author<br></strong>U.
