Geospatial Information Handbook for Water Resources and Watershed Management, Volume II Methods and Modelling

Volume II of Geospatial Information Handbook for Water Resources and Watershed Management discusses Geospatial Technology (GT) approaches using integrated modeling as applied to advanced water resource assessments. Features include multiple date land cover analyses as change in land cover influences water quality, model sensitivity analyses of DEM resolution and influences on modeling water characteristics like Manning's n, development of seabed cover classification and sensitivity, and forecasting urban growth over time with climate vulnerability impacts on water. A detailed Case Study presents a range of water quality issues, all effectively demonstrating GT inputs to water quality studies from headwater to receiving estuarine waters. Also analyzed are the comparison of evapotranspiration simulation performance by APEX Model in dryland and irrigated cropping systems, and the perspectives on the future of transient storage modeling. Captures advanced technologies and applications for implementation with models to addresses a broad spectrum of water issues. Provides real-world applications and Case Studies using advanced spectral and spatial sensors combined with geospatially facilitated water process models. Features Neuse River Basin Case Study integrating hydrologic methods and modeling along with remote sensing and GIS technologies for nonpoint source water quality evaluations. Global coverage with applications demonstrated by more than 170 experts from around the world. This handbook is a wide-ranging and contemporary reference of advanced geospatial techniques used in numerous practical applications at local and regional scale, and an in-depth resource for professionals and the water research community worldwide.
