The book further explores the development of Advanced Nature-Based Solutions (ANBS) enhanced by molecular biology and biotechnology that are tailored to various catchments with different climates, geologies, and urbanization levels. It also discusses the harmonization of NBS with hydrotechnical infrastructure to create efficient and cost-effective hybrid systems. This necessary guide integrates hydroengineering, ANBS, and hybrid systems and presents a thorough approach for sustainable water management, making it an essential resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers committed to achieving a greener future.
- Provides theoretical and empirical background based on principles of ecohydrology
- Discusses how to use ecosystem processes as management tools for upgrading Nature-Based Solutions (NBS)
- Offers methods for the development of innovative, Advanced Nature Based Solutions (ANBS) – NBS enhanced by molecular biology and biotechnology
- Covers tools for the enhancement of catchment sustainability and presents step-by-step case studies
