Effects of Global Warming on Coastal Groundwater Resources: Simplified Approach for Global Scale Evaluations

Product Description
This book shows a simplified approach to evaluate the integrated effects of global warming (climate change and sea level rise) and anthropogenic stress such as land use change on coastal groundwater resources, concerning the salinity intrusion in coastal aquifers. It helps to understand the behaviour of the coastal aquifer systems regionally as well as globally. As the proposed approach assists to overcome the problems due to lack of data and the available laborious… More >>
