This comprehensive book delves into the multifaceted environmental implications of the heightened utilization of land and water resources, as well as the integration of land for food production to cater to a growing population. It explores the intricate relationships between water, vegetation, and soil from an environmental management standpoint, with a particular emphasis on the interplay between natural elements and human activities.
In regions with shallow water tables, where agricultural activities, land management, flooding, droughts, waterlogging, salt-affected soils, and variations in water quality in wells are significantly influenced, this book takes on paramount importance. It examines the hydrological processes that shape soil and water utilization, highlighting the environmental consequences of their management. Additionally, the book presents comprehensive water study procedures and their interconnectedness with other landscape elements, such as soils, vegetation, surface water, geomorphology, geological framework, and groundwater physical-chemical composition.
Recognized methodologies like the Tóthian flow system concept are employed by various authors to offer readers robust interdisciplinary analyses of these interconnected environmental components. By examining the environmental consequences of intensified land and water use, this book provides valuable insights into sustainable resource management and promotes a harmonious relationship between humans and the natural world.
