ABOUT THE BOOK

This book serves as a basic text for under graduate and post graduate civil engineering students during the course of irrigation and water resources engineering. Most of the topics under the syllabus of irrigation and water resources engineering of undergraduate and postgraduate students will be covered in this book, written in a very student friendly language with well illustrated figures and examples. Also very useful as reference to present civil engineers.

AUTHOR'S WORDS :

Water is vital to life and development in all parts of the world. In Third World countries where the agricultural sector plays a key role in their economic growth the management of Water resources is an initiate of high priority in their developmental activities. The basic input in the calculation of Water resources are from hydrological parameters and the subject of hydrology forms the core in the valuation and development of Water resources. In the civil engineering curriculum, this subject occupies an important position.

During my long teaching experience, I have felt a strong need for a textbook oriented to the Indian environmental and written in a simple and lucid style. This present book is a response to the same. This book is intended to serve as a text for a first course in engineering hydrology at the undergraduate level in the civil engineering discipline. Students specializing in various aspects of Water resources engineering  such as Agricultural Engineering and Water Power engineering will find this book useful. This book also serve as a source of useful industrialization to professional engineers working in the area of water resources evaluation and development.

Engineering hydrology encompasses a wide spectrum of topics and a book like the present one meant for the first course must necessarily maintain a balance in the blend of topics. The subject matter has been developed in a logical and coherent planner and covers the prescribed syllabi of various Indian universities. The mathematical part is kept to the minimum and emphasis placed on the applicability lo field situations reluctant to Indian conditions. SI units are used throughout the book.

INTRODUCTION TO THE BOOK :

Hydrology means the science of water. It is the science that deals with the occurrence circulation and distribution of water if the earth atmosphere. As a branch of earth sciences, it is concerned with the water in stand and lakes, rainfall, and snowfall on the land and water occurring below eye earth's surface in the pores of soil and rocks. In a general sense hydrology is a very broad subject if an inter disciplinary nature drawing support from allied sciences such as meteorology geology statistics chemistry physics and fluid mechanics.

Hydrology is basically an applied science. To further emphasise the degree of applicability the subject is classified as

1. Scientific hydrology - the study which is concerned chiefly with academic aspects.

2. Engineering or applied hydrology - a study concerned with engineering applications.

In a general sense engineering hydrology deals with i. estimation of water resources ii. the study of processes such as precipitation, runoff, evaporation, transpiration, and their interaction iii. the study of problems such as floods droughts and strategies to combat them.

This book is an elementary treatment of engineering hydrology with descriptions that aid a qualitative appreciation and techniques which enable a quantitative evaluation of the hydrologic processes retreat are if importance to a civil engineer.
