Sobre IBD

The pollution of aquatic environment reduces possible uses of water, especially those that require high quality standards i.e. for drinking purposes. This book discusses different problems regarding the quality of water and also focuses on the current techniques of water treatment. The primary emphasis is on sustainable choices of water usage that prevent water quality difficulties and aim at the protection of available water resources, and the development of the aquatic ecosystems. The book contains different procedures employed for water treatment technologies.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

  • Physiological Ecology
    Carlos Martínez del Rio / William H. Karasov
    Unlocking the puzzle of how animals behave and how they interact with their environments is impossible without understanding the physiological processes that determine their use of food resources. But long overdue is a user-friendly introduction to the subject that systematically bridges the gap between physiology and ecology. Ecologists--for whom such knowledge can help clarif...
  • Critical Transitions in Nature and Society
    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...

  • Drinking Water
    Herbert Lotus
    Water that is safe to drink or to use in the preparation of food is known as drinking water. It is essential for the existence of life. Polluted water can result in infections such as cholera and typhoid. The common types of water treatment methods are filtration systems, water softeners, distillation systems and disinfection. This book is appropriate for students seeking detai...
  • Water Quality
    Herbert Lotus
    Water quality is increasingly becoming a concern for environmentalists. It is measured to assess if the water is safe for human consumption or for industrial use. The various parameters considered for water quality are temperature, conductivity, pH, turbidity, etc. It studies the characteristics of water, such as its chemical, physical and radiological properties. This book on ...
  • Sustainable Water Resources

Therefore, the need for sustainable water resources is an essential one. This book will give insights into the practice of managing, planning and distribution techniques required for the optimum ut...
  • Natural Water Resources
    Herbert Lotus
    Natural water resources are the main source of the water on our planet. As we are facing a water crisis, it is important to utilize the current water resources judiciously and planning for the future as well. Natural water is rapidly depleting, and thus, new concepts and methods are required to compensate for the loss and to conserve the resources like rivers, lakes and swamps....
  • Water Resources
    Herbert Lotus
    This book provides comprehensive insights into the types of water resources and their uses. Water resources include all the sources of water present on earth. If we compare the proportion of fresh water with salty water, it appears to be negligible. Although freshwater is a renewable resource, the concentration of groundwater is depleting at much faster rate. Water pollution re...
  • Integrated Urban Water Management
    Herbert Lotus
    Water is essential for all life forms. Although it is available in abundance, portable water forms a small percentage of all the water resources available. Water management refers to the practice of managing, developing, distributing and planning optimum use of water resources. As population and pollution are increasing rapidly, judicial management of water is the need of the h...
