You are invited to submit a paper for possible inclusion in the forthcoming monograph entitled:
Vulnerability Analysis of Water Resources of Peri-urban Watersheds in face of Climatic Abnormalities
Abstract:
The uncontrolled utilization of water resources and burgeoning population and their demand for luxury has induced abnormal warming of the global climate. As a result, the regular pattern of climate has been compromised which has multifaceted direct and passive impacts on the water resources of the river basins. Although there is a noticeable number of studies which has tried to highlight the vulnerabilities of the watersheds towards this abnormal climatic pattern but impact analysis of climatic ambiguities on the water resources of peri-urban watersheds has been rarely attempted. The peri-urban watersheds can be segregated as unique watersheds that flow through a peri-urban landscape. Such basins do not face the urbanization impacts which are encountered by the urban watersheds, but these watersheds also do not have the healthiness of rural watersheds either. That is why policymakers and planners of the peri-urban watersheds are often confused with the optimal utilization of the water resources of the basins. In this monograph, we want to highlight and showcase those studies which had depicted the solution to this problem more efficiently than the existing approaches....
