This book is devoted to an overview of the latest advances in the area of hydroinformatics - a rapidly developing discipline covering the applications of information technology and computational intelligence in aquatic environments with a data-driven modelling approach. A systematic survey, classified according to the methods used (neural networks, fuzzy logic and evolutionary optimization, in particular) will be given, together with their practical applications in solving various water-related issues. These include, but are not limited to, flood estimation, river flow and network prediction, and rainfall-runoff modelling. With contributions by leading international experts from both academiaand hydrology-related industry this volume constitutes an authoritative source of reference and essential reading for everyone working actively in this field. INDICE: Hydroinformatics: Integrating Data and Models.- Models Based on Neural Networks.- Models Based on Fuzzy Logic.- Global and Evolutionary Optimization.- Emerging Technologies.- Model Integration.
