This volume discusses climate change impacts on groundwater quality in arid and semi-arid regions, and provides human health risk assessments due to pollution of surface and groundwater. The book presents recent trends in monitoring groundwater management and implementing pollution mitigation strategies, including practices involving remote sensing and GIS techniques, entropy water quality index, weighted arithmetic water quality index, fuzzy logic applications, and improved irrigation methods. The book also outlines hydrological processes in arid and semi-arid regions and hydrochemical properties of surface and groundwater as a necessary background for understanding how pollution impacts groundwater quality and resources, and how geographical modeling of hydrological processes can aid in human health risk assessments. The book is intended for academics, administrators, policymakers, social scientists, and professionals involved in the various aspectsof climate change impact on groundwater quality, hydrological process, pollution mitigation strategies, sustainable development, and environmental planning and management.

lt;b>Dr. Balamurugan Panneerselvam is a Postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering, University of Naples Federico II, via Claudio 21, 80125, Naples, Italy. His current research interests include groundwater quality assessment for drinking, irrigation and human health risk associate with major contaminants such as nitrate and fluoride in arid and semi-arid region and also related to groundwater related issues. He extended his research interest in the flied of wastewater treatment using moving bed bioreactors, performance evaluation of bioreactor in biogas unit. He received his Doctoral degree from the Anna University Chennai in 2019. His thesis was based on the groundwater quality assessment using GIS techniques in Salem district, India. He has published more than 50 papers in international and national journals. He is privileged to act as Technical Reviewer in journals in the platform of Springer, Elsevier and MDPI. With his immense interest in multidisciplinary research, his recent investigations are focused on parameter estimation using machine learning algorithms, innovative floating structures, and GIS-based potential assessment of photovoltaic systems in India.
