Simulation Modeling for Watershed Management (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book discusses the role of modeling in the management process and gives an overview of state-of-the-art landscape modeling applications. It describes the latest models in a wide selection of environmental disciplines. Since management frequently requires the integration of knowledge from many different areas, both single discipline and multidiscipline models are discussed in detail. Land and watershed managers as well as students of forestry, park management, regional planing and agriculture will find this book a thorough and practical introduction to all aspects of modeling.
