Satellite monitoring of water resources in the Middle East

Satellite monitoring of water resources in the Middle East / Amin Shaban, editor.

This book presents both updated and new measurements on water resources from selective pilot areas form the Middle East. Demand for water has become very crucial notably in arid and semiarid regions like in the Middle East. The changing climate and the increased population are the most striking chal...
