This important new book synthesises decades of international research, forming a holistic approach to catchment hydrology and providing a one-stop resource for hydrologists in both developed and developing countries. Topics include data for runoff regionalisation, the prediction of runoff hydrographs, flow duration curves, flow paths and residence times, annual and seasonal runoff, and floods. Illustrated with many case studies and including a final chapter on recommendations for researchers and practitioners, this book is written by expert authors involved in the prestigious IAHS PUB initiative. It is a key resource for academic researchers and professionals in the fields of hydrology, hydrogeology, ecology, geography, soil science, and environmental and civil engineering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Günter Blöschl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 490\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.90h x 8.70w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107028180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSivapalan, Murugesu:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Murugesu Sivapalan is Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Geography at the University of Illinois.

During 2004 to 2007 he conducted doctoral research on 'non-supervised statistical methods for the prediction of hydrological variables in ungauged sites' at the Hydraulic Department of the Politecnico of Turin. He has authored or co-authored numerous papers in hydrology, particularly on floods, both from statistical and process-based perspectives, and on hydrological characterisation of river basins. Dr Viglione has developed software for regional frequency analysis and rainfall-runoff modelling under the R environment, which is available online. He also acts as a reviewer for several prestigious journals and has been involved in a number of research projects related to hydrology and flood frequency analysis, in Italy, Austria and for European governments.\u003cbr\u003eEt al...\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40641092943987,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":243.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_fdb7aaf5-9926-4d1c-ad70-40779548ff77.jpg?v=1672327151","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/runoff-prediction-in-ungauged-basins-synthesis-across-processes-places-and-scales-9781107028180","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
