Sustainable Water Resource Development Using Coastal Reservoirs

Sustainable Water Resource Development Using Coastal Reservoirs provides an expert resource on the design, construction and use of coastal reservoirs. It begins with a brief but readable examination of water quantity, quality design and geotechnical considerations. The book includes international case studies to clearly illustrate various design, planning, construction and operation methods. Case studies include projects such as: Afsluitdijk in the Ijsselmeer (Netherlands), Zuider Zee (Netherlands), Thanneermukkom bund (India), Sihwa (South Korea), Saemanguem (South Korea), Chenhang (China) and Plover cove (China). Written by an international group of Civil, Environmental, and Geotechnical Engineers, this book offers expert advice on sustainable design and construction. Explores the feasibility/design implications for Coastal Reservoirs based on estimation of runoff, detailed assessment of water demand, and estimation of water qualityProvides design schemes/procedures for the construction and operation of coastal reservoirsIncludes case studies to illustrate the design, planning, construction and operations of coastal reservoirs from around the world INDICE: 1.
