Summary:
"The book will provide the comprehensive insight of the watersheds and modeling of the hydrological processes in the watersheds. This book will cover the detailed concepts of watershed hydrology and watershed management. The basic concepts of soil erosion and its types, measurement and estimation of runoff and soil loss from the small and large watersheds will be discussed. Recent advances in the watershed management like application of remote sensing and GIS and hydrological models will be included in the book. The insight to the various important hydrological models will also be given in the book. The book will be a guide for professional and competitive examinations to Under Graduate students of Agriculture and Agricultural Engineering and Master students of Soil Science/ Soil and Water Engineering/Agricultural Physics/ Hydrology/Watershed Management"-- Provided by publisher.
