Climate Risks for Irrigation, Water Supply and Sanitation in India: Overview and Synthesis
This chapter will provide the overall context and setting for the volume. Based on available empirical data, it will discuss the issue of variability in rainfall and other climatic parameters in India. It will illustrate the need for assessing the impact of climate variability on water resources, by discussing its implications for the design of water management systems vis-à-vis the stress they induce on water flows and alterations they affect in the demand for water in various sectors, including domestic sector. It will also discuss the need for assessing the climate-induced risk in WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene systems), particularly due to extreme climatic conditions and events, for designing water supply and sanitation systems that are climate-resilient, risk informed and sustainable. The chapter will also present the objectives and scope of the book, and the outline of individual chapters.
