General circulation models (GCMs) predict certain changes in the amounts and distribution of precipitation, but the conversion of these predictions of impacts on water resources presents novel problems in hydrologic modeling, particularly with regard to the scale of the processes involved. Therefore improved, distributed GCMs are required. New remote sensing technologies provide the necessary spatially distributed data. However, there are many attendant problems with the translation of remotely sensed signals into hydrologically relevant information. This book elucidates how to improve the...

This book reviews the contributions of the research teams of the staff of the Institute of Hydrology and CEH Wallingford to the advancement of UK and overseas hydrological research and practice. The hydrological research laboratory at Wallingford has had a central role in many aspects of the development of UK hydrological sciences and related areas for half a century, as well as an impact internationally. The book contains a series of 12 chapters written collaboratively by staff; each chapter will deal with a major theme in the modern hydrology. These include the ability to: measure water...
