Implications for Integrated Watershed Management --; Index; restricted access; Issued also in print N2 - Today, a systemwide approach to watershed resource management is essential. As recent history has shown, the usual mixture of biophysical management measures are often constrained by institutional factors, frequently producing limited results. This book offers important management alternatives, examining this resource problem within an economic framework, using an interdisciplinary approach. Part I introduces the basic economic, biophysical, social, institutional, and policy aspects of watershed management. Part II illustrates specific watershed approaches through selected case studies from Asia and the Pacific UR - https://doi.org/10.1355/9789814345880 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789814345880 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/cover/covers/9789814345880.jpg ER -
