The Nile River System, Africa: Ecohydrology and Management from Catchment to Coast, Volume Two provides a critical synthesis of knowledge for an important global region. It covers water availability and needs in the Nile basin, focusing on socioeconomic, hydrological and ecological aspects and the catchment-coast continuum, also providing the information needed to develop a policy for the river that is less skewed toward immediate human needs and more focused on environmental impacts. Readers will find ecological perspectives, recent stresses, the current status of the basin, and more.

The greater integration of ecological and river management themes is the main strength of this book, making it a strong reference for academics and water resources managers, as well as fishery experts, aquatic scientists and social scientists.

Provides a basis for improved environmental management of the Nile River basin from its headwaters to the Mediterranean Sea
Presents a multidisciplinary approach, covering both environmental and societal needs
Includes case studies from this diverse river that can be applied globally
