Advances In Hydraulics And Water Engineering: Volumes I & Ii - Proceedings Of The 13th Iahr-apd Congress
This book presents a wide range of recent advances in hydraulics and water engineering. It contains four sections: hydraulics and open channel flow; hydrology, water resources management and hydroinformatics; maritime hydraulics; ecohydraulics and water quality management. World authorities such as Mike Abbot, I Nezu, A J Metha, M Garcia and P Y Julien have contributed to the book.
Neural Networks for Hydrological Modeling
A new approach to the fast-developing world of neural hydrological modelling, this book is essential reading for academics and researchers in the fields of water sciences, civil engineering, hydrology and physical geography. Each chapter has been written by one or more eminent experts working in various fields of hydrological modelling. The b
Sustainable Communities: A Framework for Planning
This book is in part a response to the attempts of governments to address increasing concerns over such environmental issues as the impact of climate change; carbon emissions; pressures from overpopulation of cities; coal seam gas extraction and depleting natural resources. The authors have developed a Sustainable Communities Framework (SCF) which incorporates social-cultural, environmental and economic sustainability principles in the process of urban planning. The authors propose a five-step SCF built on an application of sustainability tables. The book examines a wide range of urban planning practices utilizing sustainability criteria, outlining both qualitative and quantitative tools. Se...
Water and Society
This book contains the papers presented at a conference co-organized by the University of Nevada-Las Vegas and the Wessex Institute of Technology to facilitate trans-disciplinary communication on issues related to the nature of water, and its use and exploitation by society. With adequate water supply becoming a critical issue in more and more area, \there is a great and urgent need to bridge the gap between the broad spectrum of social sciences and humanistic disciplines and the specialists in physical and natural sciences, biology, environmental sciences, and health. Many issues are also trans-national in nature and relate to rights of states and hence it is essential to discuss these at i...
Frontiers in Ecology
The field of ecology is replete with intellectual and political challenges, many of pressing concern to the future of our planet. Solutions to these issues require more than the traditional ecological sciences have offered. Effective linkages must be forged between all spheres of scientific inquiry and must include social, political and economic dimensions. Frontiers in Ecology: Building the Links addresses the future of the ecological and environmental sciences. It takes stock of what we have learnt and where we are heading. Inter-disciplinary linkages have been avoided by many ecologists, but increasingly they cannot be ignored as we focus on the role of ecology in the new millennium.
Urban Water Engineering and Management
Based on the latest developments research, this book delineates a systems approach urban water hydrology, engineering, planning, and management. It covers a range of classic urban water management issues such as the modeling of urban water cycles, urban water supply and distribution systems, demand forecasting, wastewater and storm water collection and treatment.
