Engineering Hydrology is designed as a textbook for undergraduate students of Civil Engineering and introduces several new concepts and analytical methods and seeks to address the present day needs of graduating engineers. The book starts with a basic knowledge of water, its forms and locations, the hydrologic cycle and methods to analyze hydrograph applications. Full justice is done to key areas such as simulation and synthetic methods in hydrology, with emphasis on Monte Carlo simulation, rainfall-runoff relationships, statistical methods in hydrology, flood frequency analysis incorporating new methods such as POT series theory, fundamentals of groundwater flow and well hydraulics. Special emphasis is laid on groundwater budgeting and numerical methods for situations where analytical solutions are not possible. The use of software visual MODFLOW further strengthens the discourse. The focus of this textbook is on practical applications. A large number of solved and unsolved examples is provided to aid the student in the understanding of the fundamentals.

In recent years, knowledge systems have become key areas of concern for researchers, policy-makers and developmental activists. Knowledge Systems and Natural Resources is a unique collection of case studies from Nepal. It provides rich and incisive insights into critical social processes and deliberative governance. It analyses how knowledge is produced, disseminated and applied in various aspects of natural resource governance in Nepal. The book challenges the dichotomy between traditional and scientific knowledge. It proposes to differentiate among systems of knowledge on the basis of political standing of social actors engaged in natural resource governance. It further proposes that change in givernance hinges on how the diverse systems of knowledge come into deliberative interface and to what extent the unequal distribution of power and knowledge resources in society constrain the process of deliberation. This book will be of great interest to development policy-makers, governance specialists, researchers, academics, development advisors, social activists and students of social and political sciences and natural resource management.
