Description
This book introduces the systems approach to water resources management and its application to contemporary water resources management. The book covers the use of simulation, optimization, and multi-objective analysis to integrate environmental and socioeconomic factors into water resources management. The book is aimed at students and professionals in water resources management and is published jointly with UNESCO Publishing.

Water resources management is increasingly interdisciplinary and must take into account complex socioeconomic factors and environmental variables. This book describes the systems approach" and its application to contemporary water resources management, focusing on three main sets of tools: simulation, optimization and multi-objective analysis. This approach is presented within the context of sustainable planning and development under conditions of uncertainty.

This book introduces system dynamic simulation as a tool for integrated modelling and contains coverage of the use of fuzzy sets for incorporating objective and subjective uncertainties. The book combines theory with many practical examples, as well as including programs and exercises on an accompanying CD-ROM. It composes both an advanced text for students of water resources and civil or environmental engineering and a practical guide for professionals.

Published jointly with UNESCO Publishing
