Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Climate change does not feature prominently in the mainstream development and water management literature, so much so that robust strategies have not been developed to adapt to the projected impacts nor have the consequences of future adaptation costs on water affordability and access been investigated.This book examines the impact of climate change on water resource management in small towns.
