In recent years, the town has experienced high rates of urbanisation on the one hand, and tourist numbers have increased exponentially on the other, which has implications for the water supply of the people living there. Through several years of on-site research, challenges on various levels were documented and current governance approaches were analysed. This research forms the basis for future approaches to sustainable development. 001451349 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 29, 2022). 001451349 650_0 $$aHydrology$$zIndia$$zLeh. 001451349 650_0 $$aMunicipal water supply$$zIndia$$zLeh. 001451349 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001451349 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMüller, Judith$$tUrban Mountain Waterscapes in Leh, Indian Trans-Himalaya$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022$$z9783031182488 001451349 830_0 $$aAdvances in Asian human-environmental research. 001451349 852__ $$bebk 001451349 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-18249-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001451349 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1451349$$pGLOBAL_SET 001451349 980__ $$aBIB 001451349 980__ $$aEBOOK 001451349 982__ $$aEbook 001451349 983__ $$aOnline 001451349 994__ $$a92$$bISE
