DETERMINATION OF AQUIFER PARAMETERS USING REGRESSION ANALYSIS
- 2nd Edition
by Michael Kasenow, Ph.D.
US $48, SPB, 174 pp, plus Computer Program, Cat. No. DAP2
Pump test evaluation is tedious and subjective when completed by hand. This
computer program provides theory and application for the solution of pump test
data using the Cooper-Jacob method along with array and regression analysis.
Linear regression analysis offers the advantage of removing subjective interpretation.
Array analysis offers the convenience of regression analysis, but with a visual
inspection of the solution process. Array analysis has been coupled with regression
analysis in the computer program included with this monograph, to offer fast
and easy solutions for the analysis of pump test data. ISBN 1-887201-16-5. Publ.

hydrology), the following terms of scientific fields related to hydrology are
also included in the Glossary. namely: Meteorology, Hydrometeorology, Hydro-geology,
Limnology, Glaciology, Geography, Geomorphology, Oceanography, Hydraulics, Fluid

US $65, SPB, 148 pp, plus Computer Program, Cat. No. HAC
This book describes some of the techniques that the author has found useful
in many different parts of the world. The techniques are practical and have
been found to work.
Chapter 2 describes two hydrometric measurement techniques: the salt-dilution
method; and an extension of the technique to enable it to be used on larger
rivers. The second part of this chapter briefly describes the slope-area method
of indirectly estimating a flood peak from the evidence left behind. -- Chapter
3 covers a simple procedure to handle the hydrometric data processing requirements
of a regional office or other small data network. -- Chapter 4 discusses some
of the techniques of using measured data to estimate events at lower or higher
return periods. -- Chapter 5 introduces hydrologic watershed models together
with a simple classification scheme. The SLURP (Simple LUmped Reservoir Parametric)
model designed for use on a personal computer is described in detail. -- Chapter
6 describes the time series analysis.
Each technique described is accompanied by a computer program on diskette. Programs
are provided on one 3.5" diskette. They are written in Basic or Fortran
for use under MSDOS or PC-DOS on IBM-compatible microcomputers. ISBN 0-918334-69-1.

On behalf of the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry, South Africa
This is a first comprehensive publication to cover the application of
stochastic hydrology together with sophisticated systems analysis techniques
in water resources engineering.
The methodology that was developed has been extensively applied in practice
for more than five years for the real-time operating and development planning
of large water resource systems with great success. The stochastic models and
probabilistic techniques have been tested and proven under varied hydrological
conditions from semi-desert to humid sub-tropical and mountain highland conditions.
Although primarily aimed at complex multi-reservoir systems, serving multiple
users with varying reliability of supply requirements, as well as hydropower
generation, the methodology described applies equally well to simple single
reservoir developments.
Acceptance today is not only due to the sound theory underlinning the technique
but also because of the methods deployed to communicate findings to decision
makers and interested and affected parties, aided by a number of cases where
decisions had led to substantial cost savings. ISBN 0-918334-89-6. Publ. 1994
