Authors:	P. Singh, Vijay
Keywords:	Environmental and Water Engineering
Issue Date:	2013

Description:	In the area of hydrologic and environmental sciences and water engineering, a range of applications of entropy have been reported during the past four and half decades, and new topics applying entropy are emerging each year. There are many books on entropy written in the fields of statistics, communication engineering, economics, biology and reliability analysis. These books have been written with different objectives in mind and for addressing different kinds of problems. Application of entropy concepts and techniques discussed in these books to hydrologic science and water engineering problems is not always straightforward. Therefore, there exists a need for a book that deals with basic concepts of entropy theory from a hydrologic and water engineering perspective and then for a book that deals with applications of these concepts to a range of water engineering problems. Currently there is no book devoted to covering basic aspects of the entropy theory and its application in hydrologic and environmental sciences and water engineering. This book attempts to fill this need.
