DESCRIPTION:
. Here is the first comprehensive guide to the management of sediment in reservoirs. Whether you're an engineer, environmental scientist, conservationist, or water resource manager, this vital reference will enable you to understand and improve your management of all types of sedimentation problems upstream, within, and downstream of reservoirs. This landmark work brings together the conceptual framework and analytical tools you need to improve the planning, design, and management of existing and propo
"HOttest cake for professional water Resource engineers" according to a k m nazrul Kabir. In fact I had been looking for such a book in order to continue my studies in the field of reservoir sedimentation and to teach my students also. The book is providing guide line to the students of water resource engineering and also to the professional. The subject maters are presented in a simple way and The illustrations used in this book are really prctical oriented. In fact it can be a book which the professinal engineers had been looking for.
You'll learn to manage sediment for sustainable development alyze suspended and deposited sediment d estimate and measure erosion rates. Packed with clear illustrations and how-to examples, the book give you the know-how to: master sediment transport processes in reservoirs apply mathematical and physical models to analyze sediment processes route inflowing sediment through or around reservoir storage pools use turbid density currents to control sedimentation empty and scour sediments from a reservoir by means of hydraulic flushing and much more. It helps you plan, design and manage both existing and proposed reservoirs and their associates watersheds. Pro
