Beschreibung
Although many theoretical developments have been achieved in
recent years, the progress both in understanding and
application of risk and reliability analysis in water
resources and environmental engineering remains slow. One of
the reasons seems to be the lack of training of engineers
with phenomena of statistical nature, including optimum cost
and benefit decisions under uncertainty. This book presents,
in a unified and comprehensive framework, the various
aspects of risk and reliability in bothwater quantity and
quality problems. The topics covered include uncertainty
analysis of water quantity and quality data, stochastic
simulation of hydrosystems, decision theory under
uncertaintyand case studies. Methods for risk analysis of
extremes in hydrology, groundwater clean-up, river and
coastal pollution as well as total risk management are
presented.
