[edit] Optimal Management of Groundwater Flow Systems

Optimal Hydraulic Control of Groundwater Systems provides a guide for implementing mathematical and computer-based tools to aid in the management of groundwater.

In the decades ahead population increases are expected to place increased stress on water resources. A substantial portion of the world's fresh water is derived from groundwater. Optimal Hydraulic Control of Groundwater Systems will provide a practical guide for implementing mathematical and computer-based tools to aid in the management of groundwater. Drawn from the operations research literature, this book combines methods for optimization techniques to numerical models for the simulation of groundwater flow. The resulting management model provides a valuable tool for optimizing performance of groundwater systems. This volume will fill a significant gap in the technical literature on groundwater modeling and management. Features: * Teaches the reader to understand, construct, and use groundwater management models * Presents the detailed steps required to construct a groundwater management formulation * Provides a thorough description of advanced topics including nonlinear and integer problem elements and interpretation of management model results * Introduces key concepts using a specific example continued throughout the whole book * Presents numerous examples of practical use of management models * Contains a software package and associated documentation that implements many of the methods described in the book * Contents a are organized in a tutorial fashion * Focuses on the convergence of groundwater simulation modeling with optimization methods * Discusses the construction and responsible use of customized software solutions * CD-ROM includes the complete software package MODFLOW: MODular 3D finite-difference ground-water FLOW model developed by the US Geol. SurveyQTHE most popular groundwater modeling software globally
