Description
"Australia is the driest inhabited continent. It also has the most variable rainfall and runoff. This poses unique problems for the management of the nation's water resources. Water in Australia outlines the nature of the resource, past management practices, policy, and the outlook for the future. The opening chapter addresses the issue of how much water there is and where it is located. Subsequent chapters answer the following questions: Where is it? How usable is it? Does our pattern of floods and droughts mean we have too much, or too little? How did we get where we are now? How are we doing? Where are we going?"--Jacket.
