内容説明

The proceedings, "Managing Water: Coping with Scarcity and Abundance", consists of papers presented at the 27th Congress of the International Association of Hydraulic Research (IAHR) entitled "Water for a Changing Global Community." The topics covered include flood and drought estimation and control; regional and multinational river basin management; improved management of water distribution systems; analysis and management of excess water; and water scarcity and the future of irrigated agriculture.
