Water harvesting is increasingly gaining recognition as a sustainable and resilient water supply option. It offers economic viability, social compatibility, and environmental friendliness, making it a robust solution to overcome or reduce water shortages worldwide. The Handbook of Water Harvesting and Conservation: Basic Concepts and Fundamentals, published by Springer, is the most comprehensive and applied handbook on water harvesting and conservation to date. Comprising 30 chapters authored by 84 outstanding international experts from approximately 20 selected countries facing drought, the book explores, critiques, and develops concepts and systems for water harvesting. The editors have successfully brought together diverse perspectives to create a synthesis that is both academically grounded and practical in its potential applications.

This handbook is an invaluable resource for education, research, and technical works in the fields of soil, water, and watershed management. It is particularly useful for drought strategy planning, flood management, and developing techniques to adapt to climate change in urban, agricultural, forest, and rangeland areas.

The importance of water harvesting cannot be overstated, as it plays a crucial role in addressing water scarcity and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. By understanding and applying this practice in a sustainable and effective manner, we can make full use of its potential and contribute to the global effort to combat water scarcity.
