Transdisciplinary Ecohydrology

Transdisciplinary Ecohydrology: Advanced Nature Based Solutions for the Enhancement of Catchment Sustainability Potential, a volume in the reputable book series, Transdisciplinary Ecohydrology: Advanced Nature Based Solutions for the Enhancement of Catchment Sustainability Potential, delves into the intricate and dynamic interplay between hydrological and ecological processes. By introducing fundamental water/biota interactions, this book provides a comprehensive framework for developing innovative Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) aimed at mitigating human impact and enhancing catchment resilience. Sections cover both terrestrial and aquatic phases of the hydrological cycle, offering insights into water-plants-soil interactions, ecotone processes, floodplain dynamics, river continuum processes, and coastal zone interactions. 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.
