42. Methods in Karst Hydrogeology

    IAH: International Contributions to Hydrogeology, 26

    Edited by Nico Goldscheider, David Drew

    The importance of investigating karstified aquifers lies in their significance as a major source of drinking water. This book describes methods that are basic to all hydrogeological studies, such as hydraulic investigations, hydrochemistry, geophysics, isotope chemistry and modelling, but with the...

43. Assessment of the Effects of Climate Variability and Land-Use Changes on the Hydrology of the Meuse River Basin

    PhD: UNESCO-IHE Institute, Delft

    By Tu Min

    Anthropogenic climate change may lead to intensification of the global hydrological cysle and to increased flooding risk of rivers across Europe. A series of extreme floods in European rivers in the last decades have stimulated discussions about the possible effects of climate variability/change...

46. On the Application of Data Assimilation in Regional Coastal Models

    By Rafael Cañizares

    This work deals with the integration of sequential data assimilation techniques in regional coastal numerical models. Two suboptimal schemes of the Kalman filter are described in detail, both of which can approximate the results of the Kalman filter but at a much lower cost. This book compares...
