About the Book

Water is becoming an increasingly precious resource on which the well-being of future generations depends. The control and enhancement of water quality, quantity, management and planning, as well as other related topics, are essential to the future of the world's population. In this volume, which contains papers presented at the First International Conference on Water Resources Management, engineers, scientists and other professionals from many countries present the latest developments in this critical area.

Table of Contents:
Section 1: Decision support systems Flood risk management in valleys with dams; Development of a decision support system for estuarine modelling using the case based reasoning technology; Optimal pumping scheduling model for energy cost minimization: two different resolution methods. Section 2: Irrigation water management and planning Optimal irrigated cropping pattern of a multicrop system under water scarcity constraints; Economic evaluation of alternative irrigation systems for sugarcane in the Burdekin delta in north Queensland, Australia; Irrigation water consumption through remote sensing. Comparison at different scales in Zhanghe irrigation system, China; From rain to grain: A model integrated water management system. Section 3: River basin management River basin management and the national water resources policy in Brazil; Simulation models for water resources management in Chikugo River basin; Sustainable water resources management in the wider hydrological basin of Volos; Establishment and management of riparian buffer zones in Han River basin, Korea. Section 4: Residential water management Performance Indicators for water supply networks: a real case study; Instantaneous residential water demand as stochastic point process. Section 5: Wastewater treatment and management A wastewater treatment plant with the reed-bed technology; Waste water treatment with high solid anaerobic digestion (HSAD); process; Study on the factors affecting coagulation and flocculation in treatment of industrial effluents; Decentralized water disposal systems to optimize the water resources management of the Lausitzer-Neisse river catchment area. Section 6: Quality and pollution control Uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of river water quality model parameters; Water quality modelling as an environmental issue; Impact of point sources and diffuse sources on stormwater quality in Orange, NSW, Australia. Section 7: Flow in pipes and open channels Calibration of the water distribution network model; Advection-dispersion transport in water distribution networks with intermittent flow; Secondary flow in a sine-generated open channel. Section 8: Hydrological modelling Assessing hydrological impacts facing lack of data - hydrological minimalism; Modeling the water consumption of the sparse canopy: Operational approach; Lumping process of distributed parameter runoff models based on equivalent frequency response method. Section 9: Groundwater flow Modelling two groundwater scenarios in an aquifer near Florence; Hydrodynamic parameter estimation in a horizontal unsaturated soil column; ANN and GA methods to identify the non-point contamination flux to groundwater; Solving a double porosity soil characteristic curve with the quasi-Newton method (BFGS); Modelling uncertainties in the stationary seepage problem; The Ogallala Aquifer. Section 10: Coastal and estuarine flow A mathematical model for estimating the pollution exchange coefficient of small tidal embayments; Study on environmental change and peculiarity of the Ariake Sea, Japan. Section 11: Reservoirs and lakes Deriving efficient reservoir operating rules using flexible stochastic dynamic programming; Experimental -numerical model interaction: example of a large dam project in Laos; Mathematical model aided investigation of hydrodynamic properties of Ulubat lake; Sediment control in the basin of Kastoria lake.
