This book provides a comprehensive overview of surface water and groundwater quality, including its analytical methods, and remote sensing and soft computing techniques. Furthermore, the book addresses the pressing challenges surrounding sustainable use of surface water and groundwater around the globe. The importance of their quality management cannot be overstated in the face of ecological balance and climate change issues. The water quality of surface water and groundwater is affected by numerous factors, and their significance to every sector of society cannot be overlooked. This is particularly true in emerging countries such as India where population growth has led to an unparalleled demand for water and millions of people rely on contaminated water for drinking and irrigation purposes.

The book chapters cover a broad range of topics such as importance of water quality assessment for drinking and irrigation, methods and techniques, contamination sources and remedial techniques, impacts of water quality on crop, soil and productivity, climate change impacts on water quality, sustainable development policy and soft computing techniques for water quality assessment. The multidisciplinary approach and cutting-edge techniques make the book an essential resource for anyone involved in sustainable development, planning and management.
