Objectives of the book are meant to fulfill the main learning outcomes for students registered in named courses, which covered the following: - Solving problems in hydrology and making decisions about hydrologic issues that involve uncertainty in data, scant/incomplete data, and the variability of natural materials. - Designing a field experiment to address a hydrologic question. - Evaluating data collection practices in terms of ethics. - Interpret basic hydrological processes such as groundwater flow, water quality issues, water balance and budget at a specific site at local and regional scales based on available geological maps and data sets. - Conceptualizing hydrogeology of a particular area in three dimensions and be able to predict the effects on a system when changes are imposed on it. Learning outcomes are expected to include the following: - Overview of essential concepts encountered in hydrological systems. - Developing a sound understanding of concepts as well as a strong foundation for their application to real-world, in-the-field problem solving. - Acquisition of knowledge by learning new concepts, and properties and characteristics of water. - Cognitive skills through thinking, problem solving and use of experimental work and inferences - Numerical skills through application of knowledge in basic mathematics and supply issues. - Student becomes responsible for their own learning through solution of assignments, laboratory exercises and report writing. "Problem solving in engineering hydrology" is primarily proposed as an addition and a supplementary guide to fundamentals of engineering hydrology. Nevertheless, it can be sourced as a standalone problem solving text in engineering hydrology. The book targets university students and candidates taking first degree courses in any relevant engineering field or related area. The document is valued to have esteemed benefits to postgraduate students and professional engineers and hydrologists. Likewise, it is expected that the book will stimulate problem solving learning and quicken self-teaching. By writing such a script it is hoped that the included worked examples and problems will guarantee that the booklet is a precious asset to student-centered learning. To achieve such objectives immense care was paid to offer solutions to selected problems in a well-defined, clear and discrete layout exercising step-by-step procedure and clarification of the related solution employing vital procedures, methods, approaches, equations, data, figures and calculations. The new edition of the book hosted the incorporation of computer model programs for the different hydrological scenarios and encountered problems presented throughout the book. Developed programs were coded with Microsoft Visual Basic.NET 10 programming language, using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional Edition. Most of the examples herein have an equivalent code listed alongside through the text. To avoid repetition though, some example programs were omitted whenever there was resemblance to another example elsewhere, to which the reader is kindly requested to refer to.

Numerical calculations are inevitably required in the field of hydrogeology and play a significant role in dealing with its various aspects. As often as not, students are seen struggling while solving numerical problems based on hydrogeology, as they find difficulty in identifying the correct concept behind the problem and the formula that can be applied to it. Also, there is a dearth of books, which help the readers in solving numerical problems of varied difficulty level and enable them to have a firm grounding in the subject of hydrogeology. The book Hydrogeology: Problems with Solutions fills this void in the finest way, and as desired, chiefly focuses on the sequential steps involved in solving the problems based on hydrogeology. It concisely covers the fundamental concepts, advanced principles and applications of hydrogeological tasks rather than overemphasising the theoretical aspects. The text comprises sixty solved hydrogeological problems, which are logically organised into ten chapters, including hydrological cycle, morphometric analysis, hydrological properties, groundwater flow, well hydraulics, well design and construction, groundwater management, seawater intrusion, groundwater exploration and groundwater quality. The practice of pedagogy of hydrogeology in yesteryears was a two-tier approach of theoretical principles with toy problems and in-situ case studies for research start-up. This book bridges the gap between routine problem-solving and state-of-the-practice for future. The book is primarily intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Earth Sciences, Civil Engineering, Water Resources Engineering, Hydrogeology and Hydrology. It also serves as an excellent handy reference for all professionals.KEY FEATURES • Key Concept succinctly explores the models, methods and theoretical concepts related to each problem. • Necessary equations and formulae are specified. • Appendices and Glossary are included, leaving no scope to refer any other book. • Bibliography broadens the scope of the book.

This fully revised edition provides a modern overview of the intersection of hydrology, water quality, and water management at the rural-urban interface. The book explores the ecosystem services available in wetlands, natural channels and ponds/lakes. As in the first edition, Part I examines the hydrologic cycle by providing strategies for quantifying each component: rainfall (with NOAH 14), infiltration, evapotranspiration and runoff. Part II examines field and farm scale water quality with an introduction to erosion prediction and water quality. Part III provides a concise examination of water management on the field and farm scale, emphasizing channel design, field control structures, measurement structures, groundwater processes and irrigation principles. Part IV then concludes the text with a treatment of basin-scale processes. A comprehensive suite of software tools is available for download, consisting of Excel spreadsheets, with some public domain models such as HY-8 culvert design, and software with public domain readers such as Mathematica, Maple and TK solver.
