A THOROUGH INTRODUCTION TO ENTROPY THEORY AND ITS APPLICATIONS IN HYDROLOGIC SCIENCE AND ENGINEERINGThis comprehensive volume addresses basic concepts of entropy theory from a hydrologic engineering perspective. The application of these concepts to a wide range of hydrologic engineering problems is discussed in detail. The book is divided into sections--preliminaries, rainfall and evapotranspiration, subsurface flow, surface flow, and environmental considerations. Helpful equations, solutions, tables, and diagrams are included throughout this practical resource.Entropy Theory in Hydrologic Science and Engineering covers:Introduction to entropy theoryMaximum entropy production principlePerformance measuresMorphological analysisEvaluation and design of sampling and measurement networksPrecipitation variabilityRainfall frequency distributionsEvaluation of precipitation forecasting schemesAssessment of potential water resources availabilityEvaporationInfiltrationSoil moistureGroundwater flowRainfall-runoff modelingStreamflow simulationHydrologic frequency analysisStreamflow forecastingRiver flow regime classificationSediment yieldEco-index
