Comprehensive and up-to-date, this newly revised Third Edition extends the tradition of excellence established in earlier volumes. With its broad selection of subject material, abundant illustrations, and ample example problems, <i>Hydrology and Hydraulic Systems</i> offers students an outstanding, authoritative treatment of the quantitative elements involved in the development of water resources. The Third Edition features a major revision of all hydraulic-related material. The principles of hydraulics and the basic concepts underlying the application of those principles have been included in a new chapter, while hydraulic devices for measuring flows are now consolidated into a single chapter on hydraulic structures. Computer software applications have been updated throughout, end-of-chapter problems have been expanded, and more examples are presented in SI units. Outstanding features of the Third Edition include: 1) more than 300 illustrations and 175 tables; 2) more than 225 fully solved example problems in both FPS and SI units; 3) 520 end-of-chapter problems for student assignment; 4) detailed treatment of hydrologic field investigation and analytical procedures for data assessment; 5) application of EPA recommended statistical procedures for groundwater monitoring; 6) systematic presentation of various surface water flow assessment techniques; 7) thorough coverage of the principles of hydraulics and the analysis and design of hydraulic systems; and 8) complete treatment of storm, sanitary, agriculture, and urban drainage systems.<p> Not-for-sale instructor resource material available to college and university faculty only; contact publisher directly.<p> Titles of related interest also available from Waveland Press: Benjamin, <i>Water Chemistry,</i> Second Edition (ISBN 9781478623083); Bishop, <i>Pollution Prevention: Fundamentals and Practice</i> (ISBN 9781577663485); Chapra, <i>Surface Water-Quality Modeling</i> (ISBN 9781577666059); Charbeneau, <i>Groundwater Hydraulics and Pollutant Transport</i> (ISBN 9781577664796); Dingman, <i>Physical Hydrology,</i> Third Edition (ISBN 9781478611189); and Fetter, <i>Contaminant Hydrogeology,</i> Second Edition (ISBN 9781577665830).
