This paper applies the principles of water-use accounts, developed in the first of the
series, to the Yellow River basin in China. The Yellow River rises in the Bayan Har
Mountains in Qinghai Province in western China, and empties into the Bohai Sea. A
unique feature of the river is the large amo...

This paper applies the principles of water-use accounts, to the Karkheh River basin in Iran.
The northern part of the Basin where the Karkheh and its tributaries rise is mountainous, cooler, and wetter. The River spills out on to the hotter, lower semi-arid plains at its southern end. Precipitat...

This paper apples the principle of west –use accounts, developed in the first of the series, to the Volta River in West Africa. The Volta Basin covers six countries, with 85% of its area in Ghana and Burkina Faso.
Runoff in all three tributaries increases from 2-7% in the drier north to 12-26 %...

This paper applies the principles of water-use accounts, developed in the first of the
series, to the Indus River basin in South Asia. The Indus Basin covers 3 countries, rises
in the Tibetan plateau in the vicinity of Lake Mansarovar in China. Irrigated agriculture
in the Basin is extensive with...

In this chapter, we develop new indicators and statistical tests to characterize patterns of crop diversity at local scales to better understand interactions between ecological and socio-cultural functions of agroecosystems. Farms, where a large number of crops (species or landraces) is grown, ar...

Control of grasshoppers and locusts has traditionally relied on synthetic insecticides, and for emergency situations this is unlikely to change. However, a growing awareness of the environmental issues associated with acridid control as well as the high costs of emergency control are expanding th...
