ISBN: 9780444530134 出版年：2007 页码：583 Soncini-Sessa, Rodolfo Weber, Enrico Castelletti, Andrea Elsevier Science_RM

Covering the more recent advances in Modelling, Planning, Management and Negotiations for Integrated Water Resource Management, this text brings together knowledge and concepts from Hydrology, System Analysis, Control Theory, Conflict Resolution, and Decision and Negotiation Theory. Without compromising on mathematical rigour, the book maintains a fine line between theory and application, methodology and tools, avoiding getting locked into excessively theoretical and formal development of the issues discussed. The non-technical aspects of water resource systems (such as societal, political and legal concerns) are recognized throughout the book as having a great, if not fundamental, importance to reaching an agreed-upon decision; they are therefore integrated into the more technical and mathematical issues. The book provides a unified, coordinated and comprehensive framework that will facilitate the increasingly appropriate application of the Integrated Water Resource Management paradigm by current and future practising professionals, decision-makers and scientists.路 Integration of technical modelling and control aspects with participatory and decision-making issues路 Insightful and comprehensive treatment of theoretical contents, supported by practical examples路 A wide collection of exercises and project examples based on real-world case studies (with complete solutions)
