Abstract
In many considerations of sustainable development, hydrological phenomena have often been treated as peripheral, seen only as indirectly involved in ecosystem functioning. However, the global ubiquity and circulatory nature of water present strong arguments for not only the inclusion of it and related phenomena in such studies but even investigation with a hydrological focus.
