Description:This book is the first of its kind on the emerging topic of source-to-sea management. It showcases different applications of the concept to improve environmental health of freshwater, land, and coastal and marine systems, drawing upon research performed across Europe, Africa and Asia.Improved management of land, freshwater, coasts and oceans is a key environmental challenge of our time. It is needed to prevent the millions of tons of plastic that enter the ocean from land-based sources each year. It is essential to slow the spread of dead zones in our coastal and marine waters and prevent the flows of rivers from being so highly diverted that little or no water reaches the sea. Source-to-sea (S2S) is an emerging concept to improve understanding of how to effectively manage freshwater, land, coastal and marine systems. The collected works in this book explore experiences with S2S management in diverse regions across Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, addressing different S2S challenges ranging from sedimentation, nutrient and pharmaceutical pollution in rivers and lakes to marine debris on the coasts and seas. It provides some key insights into a few areas that should be of interest to those curious about the lessons from case studies of applied S2S interventions.This book will be of great value to scholars, students, and researchers interested in global water governance, water bodies management, sustainable development and environmental management.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Water International.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
