Contributions of Computational Hydraulics to the Foundation of a Computational Hydrology

  • Chapter
Recent Advances in the Modeling of Hydrologic Systems

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 345))

Abstract

Experience acquired in the development of computational hydraulics is applied to computational hydrology. Both the deductional and computational aspects are considered. The special features of hydrology, as a “scientific conglomerate,” are described.
