Advances in Flow Modeling for Water Resources and Hydrological Engineering

Surface and ground waters can be considered the main sources of water supply for agricultural, municipal, and industrial consumers. Over the centuries, the combination of both naturally occurring conditions and humanity's actions has placed increasing pressure on these water resources. As an example, climate change and natural variability in the distribution and occurrence of water are among the natural driving forces that complicate the sustainable development of water resources. Recent advances in computer techniques have allowed scientists to develop complex models at different scales to support water-resource planning and management. The Special Issue "Advances in Flow Modeling for Water Resources and Hydrological Engineering " presents a collection of scientific contributions providing a sample of the state-of-the-art research in this field.
