Product Description
Product Description
This edition of its popular predecessor has been significantly revised to increase flexibility in the presentation and maintain greater continuity of the material. Combining both theory and practical applications of empirical equations the text contains expanded treatment of water quantity and quality control, a detailed presentation of basic principles and use in analysis and design, hydrograph topics including synthetic and convolution techniques, practical and realistic case studies relating to design problems, and additional end–of–chapter problems. It provides new computer programs to explain complex concepts and solve large data–based problems. An additional appendix offers suggestions for classroom or lab problems.

Hydrology book, 22 Jun 2011
By Leonardo Latorre - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hydrology and Water Quality Control (Paperback)
I think the book is organized well and it is very thorough. I am taking a Hydrology class and we are using this as our textbook. The professor says he has used this book as long as he remembers and he has been teaching the class for over 8 years. He thinks the text is good, but he does not think there are good example or homework problems.

Great book for introductory hydrology, 22 Oct 2010
By flambrec - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hydrology and Water Quality Control (Paperback)
I purchased this book for a class I am taking, and the detail the book provides about hydrology is excellent. It covers all of the major principles for hydrology from precipitation and runoff calculations, going into further depth with CN values for overland runoff and much more. Another big topic this book covers well is Evapotranspiration. If you're studying hydrology for the upcoming semester, or you want to learn how to manage water, this book will be great for that.

This review is from: Hydrology and Water Quality Control (Paperback)
THis book was used for a hydrology and it was so so. There weren't a lot of useful examples in it but the explanations were well written.
