Hydrology and Floodplain Analysis"Hydrology and Floodplain Analysis offers the clearest and most up-to-date presentation of the fundamental concepts and design methods required to understand hydrology and floodplain analysis. This book is ideal for students taking a course on hydrology, while the practicing engineer should value the book as a modern reference for hydrologic principles, flood frequency analysis, floodplain analysis, computer simulation, and hydrologic storm water design."--BOOK JACKET. |
