Conversion factors. Solutions. Glossary. Index. "The utilization of water resources to sustain the human civilization is commonly known as "Water Engineering". In that, spirit, this book presents the overarching concepts on water for the student engineer to utilize it as a resource within the context of Bangladesh. Recent advances on understanding the environment have taught us that every single natural system has complex interactions with other natural system across various scales within the biosphere. This book therefore stresses the very important aspect of 'Interactions' among various systems of water resources that is usually absent in most water engineering textbooks. It first begins with a broad introduction of the composition of water, emphasizing particularly the phsycio-chemical properties that make it unique as an engineering resource. Subsequent chapters introduce the reader to the fundamental physical principles behind Water Movement which is then used as a background to introduce the dynamics of specific water systems (e.g. surface water, ground water and atmospheric water. The principles of remote sensing for water measurement are also introduced for those unfamiliar with modern electromagnetic technologies. The book has been written primarily for university freshman or junior level students in engineering, particularly those majoring in Civil or Environmental Engineering. With more than 60 solved examples, the book can be used as a textbook for a semester long course. Biographies of important engineering personalities who shaped water engineering as we know today, including various mind-boggling phenomena, punctuate the book at regular intervals. The ultimate aim of the book is to sustain the reader's imagination and curiosity and to attract more engineering students to study water as a precious resource utilizing modern concepts for the sustainable development of Bangladesh."

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This textbook reflects the changing landscape of water management by combining the fields of satellite remote sensing and water management. Divided into three major sections, it begins by discussing the information that satellite remote sensing can provide about water, and then moves on to examine how it can address real-world management challenges, focusing on precipitation, surface water, irrigation management, reservoir monitoring, and water temperature tracking. The final part analyses governance and social issues that have recently been given more attention as the world reckons with social justice and equity aspects of engineering solutions. This book uses case studies from around the globe to demonstrate how satellite remote sensing can improve traditional water practices and includes end-of-chapter exercises to facilitate student learning. It is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in water resource management, and as reference textbook for researchers and professionals.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Infrastructure that manages our water resources (such as, dams and reservoirs, irrigation systems, channels, navigation waterways, water and wastewater treatment facilities, storm drainage systems, urban water distribution and sanitation systems), are critical to all sectors of an economy. Realizing the importance of water infrastructures, efforts have already begun on understanding the sustainability and resilience of such systems under changing conditions expected in the future.The goal of this collected work is to raise awareness among civil engineers of the various implications of landscape change and non-climate drivers on the resilience of water management infrastructure. It identifies the knowledge gaps and then provides effective and complementary approaches to assimilate knowledge discovery on local (mesoscale)-to-regional landscape drivers to improve practices on design, operations and preservation of large water infrastructure systems.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The combined observational power of the multiple earth observing satellites is currently not being harnessed holistically to produce more durable societal benefits. We are not able to take complete advantage of the prolific amount of scientific output and remote sensing data that are emerging rapidly from satellite missions and convert them quickly into decision-making products for users. The current application framework we have appears to be an analog one lacking the absorption bandwidth required to handle scientific research and the voluminous (petabyte-scale) satellite data. This book will tackle this question: 'How do we change this course and take full advantage of satellite observational capability for a more sustainable, happier and safer future in the coming decades '.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - While there are a growing number of high-resolution space-based systems for measuring precipitation, instances of the use of these products for surface hydrology are rare. This book, which covers both scientific and practical matters, aims to change that. With contributions from a panel of researchers from a wide range of fields, the chapters focus on evaluating the potential, utility and application of high resolution satellite precipitation products in relation to surface hydrology.Focusing on the way the algorithms for the precipitation products evolved, the accuracy assessment of those products in different regions of the world, and the application of the precipitation products to various decision support systems, the book is at the interface between satellite rainfall and surface hydrologic applications. It dwells on issues that are of concern at hydrologic scales of application. In doing so, it provides very useful information to practitioners, researchers and graduate students who need to explore the latest on satellite precipitation products for various hydrological purposes.Crucially, the book provides examples of real-world applications of satellite rainfall products in operational hydrology and real-time decision-making. This enables readers to understand the potential of satellite rainfall products for practical applications ranging from agricultural/crop monitoring to flood and landslide detection in developing countries.Dr. Mekonnen Gebremichael is Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Connecticut. He has extensively published in the field of satellite remote sensing of hydrology. His research projects are funded by NASA, NSF and USAID, among others. Dr. Gebremichael is the recipient of awards including NASA's New Investigator Program and IBM Faculty Award.Dr. Faisal Hossain is Associate Professor of Water Resources in the Civil Engineering departmentof Tennessee Technological University. He has over 50 peer-reviewed publications in the fields of groundwater contamination mapping, flood prediction, satellite precipitation, transboundary water resources issues and engineering education. He is the recipient of numerous awards and recognitions such as NASA New Investigator Program, American Society of Engineering Education Outstanding New Faculty Research Award and Top Performer Rating by NSF Alan T Waterman Award Committee.…
