It examines water from the perspectives of science, naturalism, and ancient wisdom. The contention that water serves as a mediator for planetary and universal phenomena is examined in light of philosophies, theories, and insights (often unfamiliar and sometimes controversial) that have been shared throughout history. It is available through Amazon and the author.<br \/>\nAltered Perceptions: Addressing the Real Water Crises (Unlimited Publishing 2006) focuses on prevalent views of water in the industrialized world and their influence on the crises facing freshwater resources and the oceans. Rather than suggesting solutions to such crises, the book explores perceptions through which we might attain a more balanced relationship with water. Altered Perceptions was written specifically for a non-technical audience and requires no background in water science or history. It is available through Amazon and the publisher.<\/p>\n<p>Altered Perceptions<br \/>\nIn keeping with the forum&#8217;s theme of providing people with opportunities to reassess their perceptions of water, West has authored three books and a wide range of articles and papers. Descriptions of the books and their ordering information, as well as a sampling of articles published in journals or books, are provided on this web page.<\/p>\n<p>Hydromimicry<br \/>\nHydromimicry: Strategies for a Water Planet (Water Sciences &amp; Insights 2009, 2010) explores the micro- and macro-scale roles of water with a focus on supporting or emulating them in our approach to natural resource and energy challenges. Water can serve as a model for the decisions and strategies we employ to address today&#8217;s environmental and technological issues, including those that are rarely associated with water.\u00a0The second edition of Hydromimicry presents thirty examples of mimicking water&#8217;s unusual attributes and\u00a0is available through the author.<\/p>\n<p>Recent Articles<\/p>\n<p>The articles may be\u00a0viewed by clicking on their respective titles.\u00a0Additional articles are available here.<br \/>\nNature, Geometry &amp; Imagery<br \/>\n&#8220;Functional Art and Water Science&#8221;\u00a0 SciArt in America (June 2014).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Enhancing Interactions between Artists and Scientists via a Common Language&#8221;\u00a0International Journal of Arts &amp; Sciences 2 (2013).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Nature\u00a0of Water&#8217;s Geometry&#8221;\u00a0Science to Sage\u00a0(July 2013).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Water, Fractals, and Watershed Processes&#8221; In: Issues Relating to Environmental Landscape Sustainability, Sousse University (2012).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hydromimicry: Water as a Model for Technology and Management&#8221; Energy Bulletin (August 2011).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Water Footprints Identify Alternatives for Conserving Local Water Resources in California&#8221;\u00a0Water vol 8\u00a0(2016).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Reducing Water and Energy Footprints via Dietary Changes among Consumers&#8221; International Journal of Nutrition and Food Sciences 3 (2014).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Potential Water Quality Challenges Posed by Human Responses to Climate Change&#8221; In: Environmental Geotechnology, Energy and Global Sustainable Development, ISEG\u00a0(2012).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Perspectives on the Relation between Water and Carbon&#8221; In: Aqua Science, Water Resources and Low Carbon Energy, AIP vol 1251 (2010).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Water Requirements and Impacts Associated with Alternative Energy Sources&#8221; In: Water Scarcity, Global Changes, and Groundwater Management Responses, University of California-Irvine\u00a0(2008).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>West Marrin, Ph.D.\u00a0 is a scientist, educator, and founder of corporations and foundations focused on diverse water quality projects.
