Sustainable Water Resources Management in Intricate Urban Environments—Frameworks and Discussions
Publication: World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2018: International Perspectives, History and Heritage, Emerging Technologies, and Student Papers
ABSTRACT
Well managed water resources for urban environments are essential, but difficult to achieve, to ease the conflicts among environmental health, social equity, and economic viability for present and future generations. The systematic investigation of interactions among land use, adaption policy, and end water users is essential to advance the understanding of complexed urban hydrologic systems and optimize the water resources planning strategies. With majority of population resided in urban environments, the stability and full functionality of water and waste water system are integral in people’s day-to-day life and prosperity of human society. Designed framework for sustainable water resources management and discussions based on literatures were introduced in this paper, which established for further research activities and management strategies design.
