Water Stress: Some Symptoms and Causes: A Case Study of Ta'iz, Yemen

By Chris D. Handley and Chris D Handley

Book Overview

Using a study of the water shortage crisis in Ta'iz, Yemen by way of an illustration, this book assesses water stress in an integrated, interdisciplinary and holistic way, from modelling the environmental cost of the depletion to an examination of the political and legal factors involved. In doing so, it provides a complete understanding of the various factors leading to water shortage, which it argues is required in order to develop sustainable water resources in areas of water stress.
