Hydrology and water resources analysis can be looked at together,
but this is the only book which presents the relevant material and
which bridges the gap between scientific processes and applications
in one text. New methods and programs for solving hydrological
problems are outlined in a concise and readily accessible form.
Hydrology and Water Resource Systems Analysis includes a number of
illustrations and tables, with fully solved example problems
integrated within the text. It describes a systematic treatment of
various surface water estimation techniques; and provides detailed
treatment of theory and applications of groundwater flow for both
steady-state and unsteady-state conditions; time series analysis
and hydrological simulation; floodplain management; reservoir and
stream flow routing; sedimentation and erosion hydraulics; urban
hydrology; the hydrological design of basic hydraulic structures;
storage spillways and energy dissipation for flood control,
optimization techniques for water management projects; and methods
for uncertainty analysis.It is written for advanced undergraduate
and graduate students and for practitioners. Hydrologists and
water-related professionals will be helped with an unfamiliar term
or a new subject area, or be given a formula, the procedure for
solving a problem, or guidance on the computer packages which are
available, or shown how to obtain values from a table of data. For
them it is a compendium of hydrological practice rather than
science, but sufficient scientific background is provided to enable
them to understand the hydrological processes in a given problem,
and to appreciate the limitations of the methods presented for
solving it.
