The research in this book presents recent advances in the overall management of riverine systems, including advances in hydraulic and hydrological modelling, ecology, environmental management and flood forecasting. The research was presented at the Fifth International Conference on River Basin Managemetn Including all aspects of Hydrology, Ecology, Environmental Managemetn, Flood Plains and Wetlands.
In recent years significant advances have been made in the development and application software tools for predicting flow, water quality, sediment transport and ecological processes in riverine systems. The conference is thus the ideal forum for practitioners and academia to highlight the latest developments in this field and to discuss the experience of applying such tools to practical riverine problems.
The papers presented includes all aspects of Hydrology, Ecology, Environmental Management, Flood Plains and Wetlands topics are as follows: Integrated Watershed Planning; River and Watershed Management; Water Resources Management; Water Quality Issues; Flood Studies; Ecological and Environmental Impact; Erosion and Sediment Transport; Hydrological Modelling; Case Studies; Eco-Hydraulics; River Restoration and Rehabilitation; Policy and Governance; Hydropower Production.
