“…This book takes a more radical perspective than previous books by establishing a top-bottom approach where elements of the higher layer are exploited for directly modifying the lowest physical topology, thus closing the design loop in an evolutionary fashion, similar to the one observed in natural processes. -- Preface In this book, we start the exploration of evolutionary dynamics for complex networks with a working example that might look familiar to many people, at least partially. …”

“…., irrigated agriculture, domestic and industrial water supply, hydropower generation, and environmental flow (of streams and rivers) and water level (of lakes). - Bottom-up approaches, i.e., the forcing of hydrologic simulation models with climate change models’ outputs, are the most common engineering practices and considered as climate-resilient water management approaches. - Hydrologic simulations forced by climate change scenarios derived from regional climate models (RCMs) can provide accurate assessments of the future water regime at basin scales. - Irrigated agriculture requires special attention as it is the principal water consumer and alterations of both precipitation and temperature patterns will directly affect agriculture yields and incomes. - Integrated water resources management (IWRM) requires multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches, with climate change to be an emerging cornerstone in the IWRM concept…”
