Watershed Models

WATER SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY AND ENGINEERING</br></br> Even though watershed modeling is at the heart of modern hydrology many books relegate the subject to a single chapter while books devoted to modeling focus only on e specific area of application. Recognizing the need for a brood comprehensive overview of the various types of watershed models renowned experts Singh and Frevert carefully selected several highly popular and used models to produce this groundbreaking reference.</br></br> Watershed Models comprises seven sections that encompass 24 models chosen for a variety of characteristics such as physical basis mathematical sophistication comprehensiveness broodbosed applicability and their use of modern tools. After a concise introduction the book examines the history and evolution of watershed modeling derived from the Stanford Watershed Model along with regional calibration el models. The following six sections explore large watershed streamflow water quality urban watershed agricultural watershed and planning and management models. Each chapter contains information on model parameters and the strengths of each model for particular purposes as well as examples of applications.</br></br> With expert contributions from International leaders this critical book:</br> •Surveys a broad range of watershed models in a single source for the first time •Discusses models chosen for their comprehensiveness brood applicability and use of modern tools </br> • Covers large agricultural and urban watershed models as well as streamflow water quality and planning and management models</br> • Emphasizes proper choice of models based on type and amount of data available user needs and intended use</br></br> Offering on up-to-date review of models used worldwide Watershed Models supplies the broad integrated knowledge necessary for solving complex and ongoing problems Involved in resource and environmental water management.
