Author Description

A unique overview, in English, of current hydrological science in China. The ~100 contributions, primarily from China, were selected from a major conference held in Nanjing, and are grouped as: Hydrological modelling and flood forecasting; Stochastic hydrology; Water quality modelling and analysis; Water resources management and water economy; Interdisciplinary hydrology; Details of the hydrology of the Yangtze and Yellow rivers and other drainage basins in China, and about engineering projects, including the South-to-North Water Transfer, are included. The International Association of Hydrological Sciences is the world's premier member-based organization promoting the study and practice of Hydrology. Our books are authored, edited and produced at the highest level of quality, with the most current and thorough research. Our publications and our work advance the science and the professional practice of Hydrology in a variety of Science and Engineering fields around the world. The areas that we publish in include: -Ground water -Surface water -Snow and ice hydrology -Drought and desertification -Runoff modelling -Watershed -Remote sensing -Water quality -Water resources and management -Ecohydrology/hydro-ecology -Erosion and sediment -Tracer hydrology
