SA Waterbulletin January 1997

Abstract

November 1997 V Conference Centre V University of Pretoria. Theme Integrated hydrological sciences for sustainable water resources management in Africa. Objectives The need to recognize the holism of the hydrological cycle and to achieve sustainable development of water resources through integrated management (quantity and quality, all water, the water environment, catchments etc.) have become key principles in the South African water law review. This poses major challenges to hydrologists in terms of a more integrated approach towards their science in research and application. The Conference will focus on improved understanding of the hydrological cycle and the application of this understanding towards sustainable development of our limited water resources.
