This book contains a selection of papers from a NATO Advanced
Research Workshop entitled "Stochastic models of hydrological
processes and their applications to problems of environmental
preservation" convened in Moscow over the period 23-27 November
1998. The Workshop was unique in providing the first opportunity
for over a decade for countries of the Russian Federation to
interact with other countries across the world to discuss
hydrological science issues relevant to environmental management.
The contrasting schools of thought within the Russian Federation
and with other countries proved a fascinating and valuable
experience for those fortunate enough to attend. The scientific
content of the Workshop was motivated by a number of concerns.
Water is a key natural resource whose modelling and management is
made complex by its inherent spatial unevenness and time
variability. Traditional methods for investigating hydrological
processes in nature employ stochastic modelling and forecasting.
However these are not well developed with regard to (i)
representing the characteristics of hydrological regimes, and (ii)
investigating the influence of water factors on processes which
arise in biological systems and those involving hydrochemical,
geophysical and other processes.
