Global Climate Change, Dams, Reservoirs and Related Water Resources / Changements climatiques, Barrages, R矇servoirs et Ressources en eau associ矇es
The purpose of ICOLD Bulletin 169 is to assess the role of dams and reservoirs in adapting to the effects of global climate change, determine the threats, and potential opportunities, posed by global climate change to existing dams and reservoirs, and then recommend measures to mitigate against or adapt to the effects of global climate change. This bulletin is organized in chapters that include the following: - a description of what is at risk when considering dams, reservoirs and related water resources. - facts and uncertainties with climate evolution, mainly based on past observations analysis. - framework and method for assessing climate induced impacts and risk at watershed scale. - other drivers besides climate change that can affect the balance between resources and needs: demography, technology, sedimentation. - climate-driven opportunities for new storage. - emissions of greenhouse gases associated to reservoirs and water resources. - adaptation strategies and case studies from different regions of the world and illustrating different water resources systems situations. - recommendations. ICOLD recommendations (chapter 10) address three broad themes: Recommendation 1: Adopt a whole-of-system approach. Recommendation 2: Apply an adaptive management process. Recommendation 3: Collaborate with a wide range of disciplines, interest and stakeholders (including engineers alongside decision makers, politicians, natural resource scientists, social scientists, economists and the greater community) in the assessment of enduring and effective adaptation options. L'objectif de ce ICOLD Bulletin 169 est d'矇valuer le r繫le des barrages et r矇servoirs dans l'adaptation face aux effets du r矇chauffement climatique, de d矇terminer les risques de m礙me que les opportunit矇s potentielles, impos矇es par le r矇chauffement climatique aux r矇servoirs et barrages, puis recommander des mesures d'att矇nuation ou d'adaptation aux effets du changement climatique mondial. Le pr矇sent bulletin est structur矇 en plusieurs chapitres comprenant les 矇l矇ments suivants: - la caract矇risation des risques pour les barrages et r矇servoirs, et pour la gestion des ressources en eau associ矇es. - les constats et incertitudes li矇s ? l'矇volution du climat, principalement fond矇s sur l'analyse des observations ant矇rieures. - les principes m矇thodologiques des 矇tudes d'矇valuation des impacts et des risques induits par l'矇volution du climat ? l'矇chelle du bassin versant. - d'autres facteurs que le changement climatique qui peuvent affecter l'矇quilibre entre les ressources et les besoins: d矇mographie, 矇volution technologique, s矇dimentation, ... - l'opportunit矇 de cr矇er de nouvelles r矇serves de stockage pour augmenter la r矇silience des syst癡mes aux effets climatiques. - un point sur les 矇missions de gaz ? effet de serre imputables aux r矇servoirs et aux ressources en eau. - des principes de strat矇gie d'adaptation et des 矇tudes de cas provenant de diff矇rentes r矇gions du monde, illustrant diff矇rentes situations des syst癡mes de gestion des ressources en eau. - des recommandations. Les recommandations g矇n矇rales portent sur trois grands th癡mes: Recommandation 1: adopter une approche syst矇mique d'ensemble Recommandation 2: Appliquer un processus adaptatif de gestion Recommandation 3: Collaborer avec un large 矇ventail de disciplines, et de parties prenantes (ing矇nieurs, d矇cideurs, 矇lus, sp矇cialistes des ressources naturelles, sp矇cialistes des sciences sociales, 矇conomistes et la collectivit矇 dans son ensemble) dans l'矇valuation des options d'adaptation durables et efficaces.

Achieving Sustainable Highway Infrastructure in Developing Countries
This book investigates the challenges being experienced in the traditional procurement methods for road infrastructure in developing countries and explores the features of Public Private Partnerships (PPP) as an alternative procurement method with the potential of achieving a more sustainable highway network in Nigeria and other developing countries of Africa.The book starts with an investigation into the challenges of traditional Design Bid Build (DBB) procurement methods before examining the features of PPP and its potentials as an alternative procurement method for highway development, operation and maintenance, including developing and validating a PPP framework and model for application in the sustainable development and construction of highways. The PPP model developed from the study is expected to enhance decision making in the choice between the DBB and PPP methods during project planning and procurement stages. The author has developed a simple framework, illustrated in a single pictorial display the interconnected relationships, the performances of both the procurement methods, and the possible enhancement of the DBB method and the implementation procedure of the PPP method for sustainable highway infrastructure in developing countries.The framework developed and explained in this book will be of benefit to infrastructure leaders and policy makers, regulators, operators, maintenance agencies and contractors in developing countries and researchers and academics studying infrastructure procurement and delivery methods.
