Water quality and management are of great significance globally, as the demand for fresh water far exceeds the availability. Water science research brings together the natural and applied sciences, engineering, chemistry, law and policy, and economics. The Treatise on Water Science seeks to unite these areas through contributions from a global team of author-experts. The work examines topics in depth, with an emphasis on innovative research and technologies for those working in applied areas. Developmental/promotional partnership with the International Water Association (IWA) serves as a boon for both the authority of the content and the sales potential of the Treatise. Editor-in-Chief Peter Wilderer, a Stockholm Water Prize recipient, has assembled a world-class team of contributors, ensuring market reach across all related sciences and a global approach to the subject. Topics related to resource management, water quality and supply, and handling of wastewater are treated in depth-with up to 30 pages of coverage per topic, relative to a handful of pages per topic in related reference works sonal care products, etc) Erosion and Sedimentation Evaporation Field-based observation of hydrological processes Fouling and Fouling Control in MF/UF Membranes used for Water and Wastewater Treatment Global hydrology Governance of water (Legal, Legislation and Institutions) Groundwater management Hydrogeophysics Hydrological Modelling Identi cation of bacteria ( sh, PCR, DGGE) In ltration and unsaturated zone Integrate Water Resources Management (IWRM) Interception Lakes and reservoirs Linkage hydrology and aquatic ecology (focus on rivers) Linkage hydrology and biogeochemistry Managing agricultural water Managing aquatic ecosystems Managing water policy implementation Measurement Quality in Water Analysis Mechanics of Groundwater Flow Membrane biological reactors Membrane technology for Water: Micro ltration, Ultra ltration, Nano ltration and Reverse Osmosis Microbial fuel cells Modelling of biological systems Natural Organic Matter (NON) Observation of hydrological processes using remote sensing Online monitoring sensors Precipitation Predicting future demands for water Pricing of water Providing Safe Water: Evidence from Randomized Evaluations Radioactivity Risk assessment, Risk Management and Communication Rivers, incl. open channel hydraulics, a uvial erosion and sedimentation Safe sanitation in low economic development area Sampling and conservation Scaling and regionalisation of hydrological processes/variables Seawater use and desalination technology Source Separation and Decentralization Standardized methods Statistical hydrology Stream-groundwater interactions Sum parameters and surrogate parameters (DOC, AOX, COD, BOD, permanganate index) Trace Metal(loid)s (As, Cd, Cu, Hg, Pb, PGE, Sb, Zn) and their Species Tracer hydrology Uncertainty of hydrological predictions Urban Non-Point Source Pollution Focusing on Micropollutants and Pathogens Wastewater as a source of energy, nutrients and service water Wastewater reclamation and reuse system Water and economic development Water and Wastewater Management Technologies in the Ancient Greek and Romans Civilizations Water in Agriculture Water in the pulp and paper industry Water in the textile industry Water-borne parasitic diseases: hydrology, regional development and control Wetland and stabilization pond
