Urban environmental sustainability is critical because urbanization and its impacts on the environment and water resources, whether groundwater, rivers, lakes or reservoirs, are occurring at an unprecedented rate. The complex water management problems of large cities are addressed with an interdisciplinary outlook. Alternative styles of water management are also considered. The 39 papers are organized in four topics:

– Integrated water resource management

– Sustainability and socio-economic and
eco-environmental issues

– Urban drainage/flooding and wastewater management

– Water quality monitoring and management

An excellent information resource for current water management and planning in, around, and for large cities in the developing world, including Ibadan and Lagos (Nigeria), Delhi and Chennai (India), Shijiazhuang, Tienjing and Luoyang (China), Mexico City, Sao Paulo and Curitiba (Brazil), as well as Zagreb and Dresden in eastern Europe.

A collection of reviewed papers selected for presentation at a symposium (organized by the International Commission on Water Resources Systems, ICWRS) at the VIIth IAHS Scientific Assembly, held in Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil), April 2005.
