Coevolution and Prediction of Coupled Human-Water Systems offers an insightful exploration into the complex relationships between hydrology and society, drawing inspiration from the "Panta Rhei" scientific decade (2013-2022) organized by the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS). Written by more than 170 experts spanning six continents, the book emphasizes the interconnectedness of water and human activities. It is organized into five key sections, beginning with an overview of human-water systems and strategies for managing global water challenges. The text then builds a bridge between hydrology and both environmental and social sciences, introducing foundational concepts and methodologies to understand these dynamic systems.
The book advances the field by detailing significant insights on issues such as floods, droughts, agriculture, and global or transboundary water systems. It features a wide array of international case studies, illustrating practical examples and innovative solutions for achieving water security. In its concluding section, the book synthesizes major findings, making it an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and practitioners working toward sustainable water management.
