This book introduces a groundbreaking multi-field coupled constitutive model framework for unsaturated soils, rooted in the theory of thermodynamics of granular materials. By exploring the intricate energy dissipation processes at the granular level, this book offers a fresh perspective on the behavior of soils, moving beyond traditional models that rely on yield criteria and flow rules. Instead, it delves into the concepts of granular entropy and granular temperature, providing a comprehensive understanding of the dissipative mechanisms that govern soil behavior.

This book highlights the development of DSS and presents their application and the lessons learned from the obtained silver lining.  The novel DSS integrates silo models (hydrology, water quality, fisheries, species distribution models, GIS, and economic models), manifests the spirit of interdisciplinary studies, and bridges academic sovereignty is the principal appeal of the book. Moreover, the science, the interplaying governance system, and the challenges behind the development of the DSS are fascinating as they provide valuable lessons for lake-related scientists and decision-makers,...
