Abstract

Clean, safe and adequate freshwater is vital to the survival of all living organisms and the smooth functioning of ecosystems, communities and economies. Declining water quality has become a global issue of concern as human populations grow, insustrial and agricultural activities expand, and climate change threatens to cause major alterations to the hydrological cycle.
