This book combines science, society, and policy to provide a comprehensive understanding of groundwater under changing climatic conditions. It highlights the relationships that influence sustainable management by bridging the gap between physical processes, socioeconomic vulnerabilities, and governance frameworks. Its three-tiered structure makes the book unique: first, it looks at the foundations of groundwater systems and new climate-driven issues; second, it looks at the societal effects, vulnerabilities, and injustices related to groundwater dependence; and third, it offers practical adaptation plans, governance models, and resilience planning for the long term. It is extremely pertinent to researchers, practitioners, and policymakers because it also includes policy assessments, forward-looking adaptation approaches, and regional case studies. The book offers a blueprint for sustainable groundwater management that is both globally relevant and locally practicable by fusing rigorous science with real-world solutions and policy insights. Given the growing water stress and climate uncertainties, its emphasis on sustainability, fairness, and resilience makes it relevant and crucial.
