Water Matters: Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals presents a compilation of water scenarios and their relationship to multiple facets of life, as water forms a nexus with food security and energy resources, thereby forming one of the fundamental pillars of sustainable development. The thematic topics focus on studies of achieving individual sustainable development goals, primarily on safe and sustainable drinking water availability, the role of water in sanitation, transboundary water, and water in the ecosystem. Each chapter presents a case study to enable a holistic review of the topic and provide insight for further research. Water Matters: Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals integrates the knowledge on global-scale water reviews to local-scale case-studies, ideal for hydrologists, hydrogeologists and water managers in environmental and Earth sciences. - Provides interdisciplinary content that bridges the knowledge from water availability to sustainability through reviews of current technologies for clean water and water security - Includes global and regional reviews and case studies, building a bridge between broad reviews of water related issues by domain experts as well as detailed case studies - Identifies pathways for transforming water knowledge to achieve sustainable development goals to policy and governance of water, food, and energy security and sustainability
