I encourage you to consult me using email or during the office hours on paper topics, problem assignments and to discuss any other aspects of the course. The student will be able to employ principles from his or her major area of study in the analysis of multi-faceted water management problems, relating this speciality to contributions from other disciplines in the problem solution. Review of types of technology and management available to achieve objectives. Large-scale management techniques for surface water continued. Management of water in rural areas continued.
Lectures present general principles and examples of water management systems.
Problem assignments illustrate the application of the basic principles to measurements and calculation procedures. In the assignments students apply, in a simplified but quantitative manner, procedures currently used in the analysis and evaluation of water management systems. During in-class presentations by students there is discussion of current water management problems and solutions. Text There is no required text. A number of reference sources will be available at the reserve desk of the McLaughlin Library during the course.
