About this book
Reprinted from Advances in Water Resources, Volume 25/8-12, this volume assembles a broad range of comprehensive, academic works that aim: to provide a critical review of the state of knowledge; to provide introductions to, or comparisons among, classes of methods; to unify knowledge in related areas; to point the way to future advances in the field.
