Water resources systems management tools

In-depth coverage of the powerful tools available to predict and manage water resource systems. Management tools include decision support systems, optimisation methods, optimal control method, and risk methods. Water resource management application of the management tolls include irrigation systems, regional water supply systems, river-reservoir systems, groundwater systems, water supply systems.
