Overview
Kinematic wave (KW) modeling methods are gaining wide acceptance as fast and accurate methods for handling a wide range of water modeling problems. This book provides a through reference to the application of KW methods to such problems as the spatial representation of watersheds, overland flow routing, and channel flow routing.

Booknews
A textbook for a one-semester graduate or senior undergraduate course on physical hydrology for civil engineering students. Explores the application of the kinematic wave theory to environmental problems not covered in the usual hydrology text. Emphasizes how the continuum nature of environmental problems requires an interdisciplinary approach to solve them, and clarifies the role hydrology plays in addressing such problems and developing such approaches.
