Book description
This new edition is a major revision of the popular introductory
reference on hydrology and watershed management principles, methods, and
applications. The book's content and scope have been improved and
condensed, with updated chapters on the management of forest, woodland,
rangeland, agricultural urban, and mixed land use watersheds. Case
studies and examples throughout the book show practical ways to use web
sites and the Internet to acquire data, update methods and models, and
apply the latest technologies to issues of land and water use and
climate variability and change.
