One of 4 volumes from the Proceedings of the International Conference on Water, Environment, Ecology, Socio-economics and Health Engineering WEESHE

DESCRIPTION

The papers contained in this book represent one part of the conference contributions. The other parts are embodied in three separate companion books entitled, Hydrologic Modeling, Hydraulic Modeling, and Environmental Modeling, which are being published simultaneously. Arrangement of the contributions in these books under four different titles was a natural consequence of the diversity of topics presented in the papers. These books can be treated almost independently, although considerable interconnectedness exists amongst them.

This book contains five sections encompassing major aspects of water resources planning and management. Beginning with a discussion of water resources planning in the first section, the papers go on to discuss water pricing in Section 2, water resources management in Section 3, operation of water resources systems in Section 4, and impact of climate change in Section 5.

The book will be of interest to researchers as well as to those engaged in practice of agricultural engineering, civil engineering, environmental engineering, ecological engineering, earth sciences, forest resources, hydrology, and water resources. Graduate students as well as those wishing to conduct research in water resources planning and management will find this book to be of value. ISBN 1-887201-24-6. Publ. 1999 WRP.
