  • Preface 
    Jain, Sharad K.; Singh, Vijay P.; Kumar, Vijay; Kumar, Rakesh; Singh, R. D.; Sharma, K. D. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
  • 64-Mutual Control between Nodes and Edges of a Complex Network. 
    Fiorentino, Mauro; Sanchirico, Antonio (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    One of the most fascinating discoveries of the last years is that numerous complex systems, although very different among them, as belonging to physical, biological, chemical, informational, social or other environments, ...
  • 65-Scale-Invariant Analysis of Hydrological Processes -A Case Study from Portugal 
    Lima, M. Isabel P. de (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
  • 66-Estimation of Hydraulic Conductivity by Neural Network-Ridge Function. 
    Mathur, S.; Nia, M. R. Mollaei (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    Aquifer properties exhibit significant spatial variation and assigning hydraulic conductivity values to a distributed parameter model based on the available scanty field data is an important problem in modeling of groundwater ...
  • 67-The Methodology of Long Range Forecasting of Levels of Large Lakes. 
    Babkin, Alexey V. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    The methodology of revealing of periodicities in time series of the lake level and water balance components is elaborated. It combines the development of the original physically based model of oscillations of mutually ...
  • 68-Copulas for Multivariate Flood Frequency Analysis. 
    Chowdhary, Hemant; Escobar, Luis A.; Singh, Vijay P. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    Flood frequency analysis is commonly accomplished by fitting univariate distributions to annual peak flows. Lognormal, gamma, log-Pearson, extreme value, logistic and Wakeby are the commonly employed flood frequency ...
  • 69-Testing Weibull Distribution for Deriving Synthetic Unit Hydrograph Shapes with New Regionalization Techniques. 
    Bhunya, P. K.; Jain, S. K.; Agarwal, P. K.; Rathore, D. S. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    The two-parameter weibull distribution is presented as an alternate for developing synthetic hydrographs after a review of the existing applications like the popular gamma distribution method. The suitability of weibull ...
  • 70-Bivariate Flood Frequency Analysis for the Hydrological Safety of Dams. 
    Giustarini, L.; Melone, F.; Moramarco, T.; Flammini, Alessia (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    A large number of dams, built in Italy in the last century, have been dimensioned using hydrological data sample limited in length of time series. Therefore, the design flood was affected from the scarcity of data and a ...
  • 71-A Comparative Study of Different Estimation Procedures. 
    Manik, De (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    In flood frequency analysis, estimation of return periods of extreme values of discharge, water levels etc., are computed using different distribution functions. Gumbel distribution is one of such widely used distribution ...
  • 72-The Use of Local Data in Estimating and Predicting Extreme Floods. 
    Clark, Colin (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    Worldwide floods continue to cause the most damage of all natural hazards. Estimating floods can involve the use of estimates of extreme rainfall. In the UK, the Flood Estimation Handbook (FEH) has been shown to underestimate ...
  • 73-Statistics of Extremes in Hydrology. 
    Strupczewski, W. G.; Kochanek, K.; Singh, V. P. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    The main objections to the use of a pure statistical approach in the analysis of hydrological extremes are small sample size and unknown distribution function. The ML estimates of large quantiles are highly sensitive to ...
  • 74-Assessment of the Relation between Rainfall and Flood Frequency Curves through Peak over Threshold Analysis. 
    Claps, P.; Allamano, P.; Laio, F. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    The analysis of the flood production mechanisms from rainfall is crucial for building flood frequency curves in ungauged basins. In this paper, the rainfall-runoff transformation under heterogeneous geomorphoclimatic ...
  • 75-Flood Disaster Preparedness Standard. 
    Takeuchi, Kuniyoshi (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    In order to implement the Hyogo Framework for Action, it is necessary to establish an operational mechanism by which communities are encouraged, directed and learn each other to take a rational procedure to make themselves ...
  • 76-The U. S. National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) 
    Pulwarty, Roger S. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
  • 77-Assessing Spilway Design Flood and the Collapse of Gasper Dam, June 29,1917. 
    Clark, Colin (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    The spillway design flood of some UK dams has recently been under review. Although there have been no fatalities caused by dam failure in recent years, it is now realised that some darns will have to be strengthened in ...
  • 78-A Hydrologic Flood Forecasting System for Mesoamerica. 
    Villalobos, Jose E.; Singh, Vijay P. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    Frequent flooding is a common occurrence in the Mesoamerica region, causing both death and destruction. With a flood forecasting system in place, the safety and security of both people and property in this region can be ...
