| Tóm tắt: | Ecohydrology, as used in this book, is a new term (used since the late 1990s) to
describe a new scientific way of managing the water cycle in order to achieve the
sustainable use of water by societies. It is an understanding of how hydrological
processes integrate with ecological ones (e.g. the discharge regimes of rivers,
lakes, wetlands and reservoirs infl uence the populations and interactions between
them, superimposed on dynamics of their physical performance in ecosystems)
and conversely, how ecological ones may subsequently regulate hydrological
ones (e.g. how distribution of vegetation in a catchment affects the hydrological
cycle by modification of evapotranspiration and runoff at basin scale, riparian
vegetation and debris dams in headwaters and floodplain wetlands in lower
reaches of rivers regulate discharge timing). It then integrates the knowledge of
those two processes and uses it to find innovative solutions to the problems of
river basin degradation caused by our society. |
