The primary reference for the modeling of hydrodynamics and water
quality in rivers, lake, estuaries, coastal waters, and wetlands
This comprehensive text perfectly illustrates the principles, basic
processes, mathematical descriptions, case studies, and practical
applications associated with surface waters. It focuses on solving
practical problems in rivers, lakes, estuaries, coastal waters, and
wetlands. Most of the theories and technical approaches presented
within have been implemented in mathematical models and applied to
solve practical problems. Throughout the book, case studies are
presented to demonstrate how the basic theories and technical
approaches are implemented into models, and how these models are
applied to solve practical environmental/water resources problems.
This new edition of Hydrodynamics and Water Quality: Modeling
Rivers, Lakes, and Estuaries has been updated with more than 40%
new information. It features several new chapters, including one
devoted to shallow water processes in wetlands as well as another
focused on extreme value theory and environmental risk analysis. It
is also supplemented with a new website that provides files needed
for sample applications, such as source codes, executable codes,
input files, output files, model manuals, reports, technical notes,
and utility programs. This new edition of the book: * Includes more
than 120 new/updated figures and 450 references * Covers
state-of-the-art hydrodynamics, sediment transport, toxics fate and
transport, and water quality in surface waters * Provides essential
and updated information on mathematical models * Focuses on how to
solve practical problems in surface waters presenting basic
theories and technical approaches so that mathematical models can
be understood and applied to simulate processes in surface waters
Hailed as a great addition to any university library by the Journal
of the American Water Resources Association (July 2009),
Hydrodynamics and Water Quality, Second Edition is an essential
reference for practicing engineers, scientists, and water resource
managers worldwide.
