ABOUT THE BOOK

WATER RESOURCES SYSTEMS PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT

AUTHORS : S.K.JAIN AND V.P.SINGH

PUBLISHERS : ELSEVIER PUBLISHERS

In nature, the water of right quality in right quantity is usually not available at the right 

place at the right time. Sometimes, it is available at the wrong place and at the wrong 

time and its quality and quantity are not what they should be. Although in nutshell, this 

is the gist of the problem, this seemingly innocuous, albeit naughty interplay of words 

fails to convey the gravity and the magnitude of the problems that are caused by the 

mismatch between the availability and the demand of good quality water. Nature can 

indeed be very harsh and ruthless at times. However, a positive outcome of this 

mismatch is the development of a wide range of tools and techniques for water 

resources systems planning, development, operation, and management.

The subject matter of the book is divided into four parts. The first part, termed

Preliminaries, contains four chapters. Introducing the basic theme of the book, the first 

chapter provides an overview of the current status of water resources utilization, and the 

likely scenario of demands in the near future. The basic concepts, practical applications,

and advantages and disadvantages of systems analysis techniques are presented. Also 

provided is a discussion of seven challenges for the water sector identified and debated 

in recent international forums. Temporal and spatial hydrologic analyses require 

extensive data. An understanding of how this data is measured and how the processing 

of this data is done is important before undertaking any water resources systems 

analysis. Chapter 2 presents techniques of observing and processing the data used in 

water resources systems. The discussion is extended to emerging techniques in Chapter 

3. These techniques are Remote Sensing, GIS, Artificial Neural Networks, and Expert 

Systems. These techniques are versatile, highly useful, and are playing increasingly 

important role in water resources planning and management. Chapter 4 discusses 

statistical tools for deriving the desired information from these data, including 

commonly used probability distributions, methods of parameter estimation, regression 

and correlation analysis, frequency analysis, time-series analysis, and transition 

matrices and Markov chains.

Part 2 of the book deals with Decision Making which is a bouquet of 

techniques organized in 4 chapters. Optimization and simulation techniques are 

discussed in Chapter 5. Most of the analysis dealing with planning and management of 

water resources systems is carried out using these techniques. Besides technical aspects, 

economic analysis is essential to rank the various competing projects and the 

subsequent approval by the decision-maker. Chapter 6 dwells upon the techniques of 

economic analysis. During recent years, environmental and social aspects, and

rehabilitation and resettlement of project-affected people have come to occupy a central 

stage in planning as well as management of water resources projects. It is now

recognized that these projects may have a lasting impact on the social fabric of the area 

concerned. It is, therefore, necessary that while planning as well as operating a water 

resources system, adequate care and precautions are exercised so that adverse impacts 

on the society and the environment are minimized. These issues form the subject matter 

of Chapter 7. Using basic analytical tools and the knowledge of environmental and 

social aspects, the practitioner is required to take a rational and balanced decision 

regarding design and management of water resources systems. Since major inputs to a 

water resources system, such as rainfall, meteorological variables, etc. are not 

deterministic, these systems inherently have an element of risk. The concept of rational 

decision making and the associated elements, such as the concept of risk, reliability, and 

uncertainty in water resources systems, are discussed in Chapter 8. 

Part 3 of the book, comprising 2 chapters, deals with Water Resources 

Planning and Development. Chapter 9 discusses basic concepts of planning, 

classification and steps of the planning process, integrated planning, institutional setup, 

public involvement, and planning models. Chapter 10 discusses planning and sizing of 

reservoirs, and approaches to compute the storage capacity for conservation as well as 

flood control. 

The fourth and last part of the book, encompassing 4 chapters, focuses on 

Systems Operation and Management. After a reservoir has been constructed, it is 

essential that it is managed in the best possible way so that benefits can be maximized. 

The techniques of reservoir operation are discussed in Chapter 11. It includes a detailed

discussion on conventional and systems techniques for regulating a system consisting of 

reservoirs in series and parallel and the application of various systems analysis

techniques, such as optimization and simulation. It also discusses real-time operation of 

reservoirs and the logistics required. Many dams around the world are experiencing a 

significant loss of their storage capacity every year due to sedimentation. This topic is 

discussed in Chapter 12, providing details of soil erosion and mathematical modeling of 

sediment transport, empirical techniques as well as latest satellite data-based techniques 

to assess reservoir sedimentation, methods to prevent the sediment from entering a 

reservoir, and recovery of reservoir storage by flushing and dredging.

No analysis of water resources systems is complete without consideration of 

water quality. Chapter 13 presents fundamentals of measurement of water quality 

variables and modeling of water quality in rivers. A river basin is the natural unit in 

which water occurs and currently a lot of emphasis is being placed on holistic 

management of river basins. Chapter 14, the final chapter, discusses various issues 

related to management of a river basin. The discussion includes integrated water quality 

and quantity management, water pricing, water rights, inter-basin water transfer, 

decision support systems, privatization, and management of intemational river basins.

Ever increasing human population, rapid industrialization and changing life style have caused degradation of the environment. Every component of the environment is polluted, threatening the life support system. Global efforts are underway to prevent or reduce environmental degradation and to protect biodiversity. In this book the principles of basic civil engineering and environmental engineering are discussed. In the first section introduction to civil engineering is given. Use of basic as well as modern materials including their recycling is explained. Construction of substructure, superstructure and automation in construction is dealt with. This section also covers principles of survey including use of modern survey equipments and application of GIS. In the second section chapters dealing with environmental engineering have been covered. Topics related to ecology and ecosystem, human impacts on environment, environmental pollution, energy resources, various techniques of harnessing energy, environmental impact assessment and built environment have ben discussed. Attempt has been made to use simple language to make the book reader friendly. Illustrations have been included to make the subject interesting and easy to grasp. The authors solicit constructive criticism and suggestions for improvement of this book. _ said by the Authors.
