Comprehensive text on the fundamentals of modeling flow and sediment transport in rivers treating both physical principles and numerical methods for various degrees of complexity. Includes 1-D, 2-D (both depth- and width-averaged) and 3-D models, as well as the integration and coupling of these models. Contains a broad selection

The book discusses the complex phenomena of gas transfer processes within the sciences of fluid dynamics and biogeochemistry. It covers: 1.) Effects of surface waves and turbulence on gas transfer. 2.) Effects of buoyancy and surfactants on gas transfer. 3.) Gas gransfer in strong turbulent flows. 4.) Remote sensing for large-scale gas transfer. 5.) gas transfer by aeration.
