A study in the development of flow adaptive numerical schemes in computational hydraulics directed to enhancing modelling capabilities. Examples covered include additional flow resistance due to flexible vegetation; one-dimensional supercritical f...
Echinoderm Studies is a biennial series in which comprehensive surveys of selected topics are presented. A guiding principle of the series is to cover all aspects of echinoderm biology so as to promote a better comprehension of this group of animals.
A comprehensive study of pond fisheries. Topics include the organisation and construction of fish ponds, production processes in fish farms for warmwater carp and cold-water trout, and irrigation networks and reservoirs constructed for multipurpose exploitation.
This volume is an outcome of the annual meeting of the crustacean society symposia on Crustacean Issues 2. It examines issues in contemporary carcinology. The volume emphasises on larval and postlarval growth in decapods.

This work describes the key results of the European research project called PROVERBS to develop and implement probability-based methods for the design of monolithic coastal structures and breakwaters subject to sea wave attacks.
This work contains the guidlines for the assessment of institutional frameworks, including the analytical framework; integrated water resources management; IWRM requirements for the functional levels; and IWRM capacity building.
Considers the effect of human activity on karst waters, highlighting the complex relationships between human water use and the consequences for the environment, and suggesting important changes to be made.
This work reviews soil mechanics in the light of critical state soil mechanics. A number of exercises are provided, and a microcomputer program, "Cris", used for simulation of the behaviour of soil samples.
Providing an all-encompassing study into the field of design methodology in rock engineering, this book appraises current trends, explores engineering design in depth, presents a design methodology and demonstrates its practical use.
A study on rock mechanics in salt mining, this work includes coverage of the exploration and opening of salt mining, deformation and failure of the salt, strata mechanics and control for different mining systems, and stability analyses of the mine...
This study investigates the use of constructed wetlands as a cheaper and more effective alternative method of treating domestic wastewater in tropical environments. This book determines the technical viability of the model, with respect to treatme...
