The Congo Basin, the world's second-largest river basin, is home to a staggering 120 million people, making it a vital region to understand in the face of climate and anthropogenic change. The Congo Basin Hydrology, Climate, and Biogeochemistry: A Foundation for the Future delves into the intricate cycles of water, sediment, and nutrients within this vast ecosystem. This comprehensive book, featuring contributions from regional experts and their international collaborators, explores various aspects of rainfall, hydrology, hydraulics, sediment, and carbon dynamics.
Volume highlights include:
• In-situ and remotely sensed measurements and model results, providing valuable insights into the region's hydrological conditions.
• Utilization of historic data to assess precipitation and hydrologic changes, shedding light on historical patterns and their implications.
• Examination of water exchange between wetlands and rivers, a crucial aspect of the Congo Basin's hydrology.
• Exploration of biogeochemical processes in the Congo's forests and wetlands, contributing to our understanding of carbon sequestration and ecosystem health.
• A scientific foundation for hydrologic resource management in the region, with practical applications for water allocation, conservation, and sustainable development.
• Studies from different parts of the Congo river and its adjoining basins, providing a comprehensive understanding of the basin's diverse ecosystems.
Published by the American Geophysical Union, this book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals in Earth and space science. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide valuable resources for those seeking to advance their understanding of the Congo Basin and its importance in shaping our world.
