Abstract

New editions of Wasser Kalender 1979 [1) and the Manual on Water [2) have been published. A bibliography on water resources in arid and semiarid regions contains 140 abstracts, 31 of which are new entries. The bibliography covers reports on water quality, resource management, potable water, consumption and irrigation, particularly those in the western regions of the U.S. [3). Causes of the shortage of clean water were examined with heavy emphasis placed on the problems of the U.S. Among the solutions that the aurhor suggests are desalination and weather modification [4). The trend of the future and solution to the water crisis will come primarily from increasing emphasis placed on tapping underground reservoirs and desalination of seawater. The solution will also involve judicions water management [5).
