Synopsis Book of Proceedings by : Ana Fletcher Peletic (Tim(ed))
This conference incorporates the 7th International Conference on Urban Drainage Modelling and the 4th International Conference on Water Sensitive Urban Design and is hosted by the Institute for Sustainable Water Resources, Engineers Australia, International Water Association, and the Stormwater Industry Association. This conference deals with two highly topical issues in management of Urban Water: (i) modelling of urban drainage systems and the interfaces to other parts of urban water cycle; and (ii) current achievements and problems in Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD), also known as Low Impact Development Design.

Synopsis Urban Drainage Modelling and Water Sensitive Urban Design by : T Fletcher
Urban water management is faced with the seemingly contradictory challenges of managing the impacts of excessive water in the form of flooding and environmental degradation from stormwater runoff, at the same time as addressing an increasing scarcity of water of sufficient quality to sustain humans and the environment. The 7th Urban Drainage Modelling and 4th Water Sensitive Urban Design conferences were held concurrently in Melbourne, Australia in April 2006. They brought together a diverse range of experts to share insights and perspectives on technical, environmental and socio-economical aspects of urban water management. A key highlight of the conference was the focus on integrated approaches, with perspectives from engineers, scientists, social scientists, planners and landscape architects contributing to solutions for urban drainage and water management. Assessment and consideration of uncertainty in models was a major theme to come out of the conference, as was the evolution of new technologies in water sensitive urban design, decision-support systems and real time control. Of the 285 abstracts submitted to the conference, 157 were accepted after a two-stage review. Only 30 of these papers were able to be accepted for publication in Water Science and Technology. Papers selected are those which report the best scientific or technological advances or insights into urban drainage modelling or water sensitive urban design. Together, they represent an authoritative summary of the current state of knowledge in urban drainage modelling and water sensitive urban design.

Synopsis Urban Drainage by : David Butler
Urban Drainage has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect changes in the practice and priorities of urban drainage. New and expanded coverage includes: Sewer flooding The impact of climate change Flooding models The move towards sustainability Providing a descriptive overview of the issues involved as well as the engineering principles and analysis, it draws on real-world examples as well as models to support and demonstrate the key issues facing engineers dealing with drainage issues. It also deals with both the design of new drainage systems and the analysis and upgrading of existing infrastructure. This is a unique and essential textbook for students of water, environmental, and public health engineering as well as a valuable resource for practising engineers.

Synopsis New Trends in Urban Drainage Modelling by : Giorgio Mannina
This book addresses the latest research advances, innovations, and applications in the field of urban drainage and water management as presented by leading researchers, scientists and practitioners from around the world at the 11th International Conference on Urban Drainage Modelling (UDM), held in Palermo, Italy from 23 to 26 September, 2018. The conference was promoted and organized by the University of Palermo, Italy and the International Working Group on Data and Models, with the support of four of the world’s leading organizations in the water sector: the International Water Association (IWA), International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), Environmental & Water Resources Institute (EWRI) - ASCE, and the International Environmental Modelling and Software Society (iEMSs). The topics covered are highly diverse and include drainage and impact mitigation, water quality, rainfall in urban areas, urban hydrologic and hydraulic processes, tools, techniques and analysis in urban drainage modelling, modelling interactions and integrated systems, transport and sewer processes (incl. micropollutants and pathogens), and water management and climate change. The conference’s primary goal is to offer a forum for promoting discussions amongst scientists and professionals on the interrelationships between the entire water cycle, environment and society.

Synopsis Transitions by : Peter W. Newton
Formidable challenges confront Australia and its human settlements: the mega-metro regions, major and provincial cities, coastal, rural and remote towns. The key drivers of change and major urban vulnerabilities have been identified and principal among them are resource-constraints, such as oil, water, food, skilled labour and materials, and carbon-constraints, linked to climate change and a need to transition to renewable energy, both of which will strongly shape urban development this century. Transitions identifies 21st century challenges to the resilience of Australia’s cities and regions that flow from a range of global and local influences, and offers a portfolio of solutions to these critical problems and vulnerabilities. The solutions will require fundamental transitions in many instances: to our urban infrastructures, to our institutions and how they plan for the future, and perhaps most of all to ourselves in terms of our lifestyles and consumption patterns. With contributions from 92 researchers – all leaders in their respective fields – this book offers the expertise to chart pathways for a sustainability transition.

Synopsis Water Management Challenges in Global Change by : B. Ulanicki
Water Management Challenges in Global Change contains the proceedings of the 9th Computing and Control for the Water Industry (CCWI2007) and the Sustainable Urban Water Management (SUWM2007) conferences. The rationale behind these conferences is to improve the management of urban water systems through the development of computerbased methods. Issues such as economic globalisation, climate changes and water shortages call for a new approach to water systems management, which addresses the relevant technical, social and economic aspects. This collection represents the views of academic and industrial experts from a number of countries, who provide technical solutions to current water management problems and present a vision for addressing the global questions. The themes underlying many of the contributions include energy and material savings, water savings and the integration of different aspects of water management. The papers are grouped into three themes covering water distribution systems, sustainable urban water management and modelling of wastewater treatment plants. The water distribution topics cover asset and information management, planning, monitoring and control, hydraulic modelling of steady state and transients, water quality and treatment, demand and leakage management, optimisation, design and decision support systems, as well as reliability and security of water distribution systems. The sustainable urban water management topics include urban drainage systems, water reuse, social aspects of water management and also selected facets of water resources and irrigation. Computer control of wastewater treatment plants has been seen as less advanced than that of clean water systems. To address this imbalance, this book presents a number of modelling techniques developed specifically for these plants. Water Management Challenges in Global Change will prove to be invaluable to water and environmental engineering researchers and academics; managers, engineers and planners; and postgraduate students.
