Anderson, M G; Burt, T P

The authors present a report on the technologies now available in the rapidly growing field of hydrological forecasting. The volume covers the major hydrological areas relevant to the watershed, as opposed to the hillslope, scale, and discusses the latest simulation models in use. Included is material on modeling strategies, soil water modeling, the use of radar for precipitation measurements, remote sensing of soil moisture, modeling changes in forest evapotranspiration, and snow and ice. Also presented is information on groundwater forecasting, water quality, lumped catchment models, variable source area models, and distributed models.
