hydro-political literature has both embodied and benefited from the tools, lessons and underpinnings provided by different academic disciplines like: economics, international law, international relations and negotiation as well as geography and hydrology. (Biswas 2011, Wilner 2005,). Economics has brought to bear such concepts as regional cooperation, game theory and institutional economics. International water law rich in its history but relatively juvenile in its codification status; as of 1997

Trees and any plantation for that matter are often taken for granted as they provide many of the essentials such as photosynthesis regulation, habitat, food, and even save ground to build construction. However, as more people demand more, more space will be needed and cutting away the trees for humans to use. Deforestation is the act of cutting and clearing a large area of trees. It is the cause of extreme damage to the ecosystem and sustainability of life. Deforestation is negatively affecting the

Sharon Fighter Final Paper Watershed Issues and Policies in the Himalayan Region The Himalayan region provides water to more than 150 million people in the uplands and lowlands, and the water basins support 1.5 billion people who inhabit the area, and up to 3 billion people rely on the food and energy produced using the Himalayan watershed (1). The glaciers in the Himalayas deliver large quantities of runoff to the major tributaries of the Ganges and the rivers in the adjacent basins (2). These glacial

Before I attended the first day of this class, I thought that most of classmates would be environment, geography, and urban studies major students because I thought that Portland’s water was related to environment, hydrology, and urban studies. However, when I attended the first day of class, several classmates are geology major students. Because I’m an Earth Science major student, and it is related to geology in most part of may major. Also, I saw classmates whose major is education, geography,

maintenance of the two flow gages on Four Mile Run and the development of Long Branch HEC-RAS model. Four Mile Run Computer Model The Watershed Management Program relies upon the Four Mile Run Computer Model to simulate the watershed 's complex hydrology and the impacts of stormwater runoff from local land use changes and drainage modifications. The impacts of a proposed project are reviewed and corrective measures are recommended if the model predicts flooding problems in the lower Four Mile Run

Case Study Description: Wynyard Quarter The following case study of Wynyard Quarter located New Zealand, within the western portion of Auckland City’s waterfront aims to look at the effectiveness of stormwater management within the area. Wynyard Quarter houses a mix of residential, retail and commercial establishments. Further development plans show that a variety of construction work will be undertaken to show-off a world class destination that celebrates pacific and maritime culture as well as

We all have heard that 70 percent of the Earth’s surface is water-covered – most of it in the form of oceans. Though it may sound like a lot, the fact that most of them are not fresh water. According to Jay Kimball 's calculation, it shows that freshwater in the world is only 10.7 billion cubic kilometers. It means clean water represents 0.77 percent of total volume of water in the Earth. In addition, we also have 1.74 percent of clean water which can be seen in different places such as the ice

• A floodplain or flood plain is an area of land adjacent to a stream or river that stretches from the banks of its channel to the base of the enclosing valley walls and experiences flooding during periods of high discharge. Or in simple words we can say - an area of low-lying ground adjacent to a river, formed mainly of river sediments and subject to flooding. • Flood plains are made by a meander eroding sideways as they travel downstream. When a river breaks its banks and floods, it leaves behind

China’s ability to deal with its limited water resources may perhaps be the greatest determining factor in the future prosperity of the nation as well as wellbeing of the Chinese people. Though not entirely without freshwater reserves, the sheer size of the nation’s population dictates that China has always failed to be a water abundant country. Recent decades’ rapid development, inefficient water usage, and pollution have birthed a severe and growing water crisis. As a key component of the government’s
