The book emphasizes the connection between  theory, calculation, modeling, and engineering judgment . It recognizes that a reliable stormwater solution depends on the quality of rainfall data, catchment delineation, soil characterization, runoff assumptions, model structure, calibration, validation, and interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eParticularly valuable for civil, environmental, water-resources, drainage, transportation, municipal, and consulting engineers, the book also provides a useful reference for planners, researchers, academics, students, and infrastructure professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eModern stormwater engineering is no longer limited to rapidly moving water away from cities. It increasingly seeks to  avoid, reduce, infiltrate, store, treat, reuse, convey, and safely discharge stormwater  while improving flood resilience, water security, environmental performance, and long-term infrastructure reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume establishes the hydrologic foundation for that integrated approach and prepares the reader for the drainage planning, hydraulic design, storage, flood management, green infrastructure, water-quality, modeling, climate-resilience, and smart-stormwater topics developed throughout the broader handbook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA practical foundation for understanding rainfall, runoff, catchments and the future of stormwater engineering.\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom rainfall analysis to runoff hydrographs.\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom infiltration to urban hydrologic models.\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom fundamental principles to engineering practice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":52855454269656,"sku":"YSL84335","price":7.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/3356\/2072\/files\/71eS_r657zL._SY1500.jpg?v=1793419792","url":"https:\/\/www.bookmebay.com\/products\/b0hjpwpnws","provider":"BookMebay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
