This book offers a clear and up-to-date presentation of fundamental
concepts and design methods required to understand hydrology and
floodplain analysis. It addresses the computational emphasis of modern
hydrology and provides a balanced approach to important applications in
watershed analysis, floodplain computation, flood control, urban
hydrology, stormwater design, and computer modeling.
Chapter topics cover rainfall-runoff analysis, frequency analysis,
flood routing, hydrologic simulation models and watershed analysis,
urban hydrology, floodplain hydraulics, ground water hydrology, design
issues and geographical information systems in hydrology, NEXRAD radar
rainfall for hydrologic prediction, and floodplain management issues.
For engineers and hydrologists. |
