WATER RESOURCES AND WATER MANAGEMENT
AUTHOR : MILAN K JERMAR
PUBLISHERS : ELSEVIER
Water is a substance which plays a crucial part i n the existence of l i f e on
Earth. It forms the living mass and, together with the s o i l and the air , represents the living environment. The energy which is accepted by this system from
the universe helps to sustain essential life processes. The hydrological cycle,
or the process of permanent movement and transformation of water, connects the
human being with all the elements of this environment in such a manner that any
change results in a chain of consequences which spread throughout the ecological
system.
For billions of years the development of the ecosystem was determined by the
interplay of uncertain causes. A fundamental change occurred with the emergence
of civilization . Man started to influence this system intentionally and systematically:
gradually mankind's everyday existence came to have a more serious
and detrimental effect on the environment. Up until now the energy which mankind
used during his development has been negligible i n comparison with the
amount of energy used through natural processes. Nevertheless, even the water
management and agricultural activities of ancient civilizations already had a
drastic and irreparable impact on waste areas as a result of systematic efforts
over long periods of time. - Preface by Author
