Features: This book discusses the rational development and utilization of water resources from the aspects of increasing supply, exploring new water sources, and reducing water demand in arid regions. It is divided into three parts: supply and water source technology, water collection and water source utilization technology, and water conservation and water saving technology. It describes technologies suitable for arid lands and with development potential. The book consists of 23 chapters, with each chapter focusing on one type of technology, explaining the principles, methods, existing problems, and further development directions of providing more water for arid lands through both supply expansion and conservation. This book provides valuable reference material for resource water management and drought prevention and mitigation efforts in arid regions. It is suitable for technical personnel and researchers working in water resources, agriculture, forestry, environmental protection, chemical engineering, geology, and biology. It is also suitable for researchers engaged in agricultural scientific experiments in rural areas and students majoring in related fields at colleges and universities. The book consists of 23 chapters, with each chapter focusing on one type of technology, explaining the principles, methods, existing problems, and further development directions of providing more water for arid lands through both supply expansion and conservation.
