Kinematic Wave Modeling in Water Resources, Surface-Water Hydrology
- Book Review,
by Vijay P. Singh
From Book News, Inc.
A textbook suited for a one-semester advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate course on modeling in physical hydrology. It provides a unified treatment of kinematic wave theory--a well- accepted tool for modeling a variety of hydrologic resources<-;- >and contrasts it with diffusion wave theory and dynamic wave theory, describing its application to a range of hydrologic and water resources problems. The volume is divided into five parts: introduction; hydraulic preliminaries; water waves; overland flow; and channel flow routing. Includes some 50 pages of references.

Book Description
Kinematic wave modeling methods are gaining wide acceptance as a fast and accurate way of handling a wide range of water modeling problems. This is the first book to provide a thorough reference to the application of KW methods to such problems as the spatial representation of watersheds, overland flow routing, and channel flow routing.
