WATER RESOURCES SYSTEMS ANALYSIS
Water supply and demand are increasingly stressed by climate, population, land-use, policy, etc. Presents a variety of systems analysis techniques for water resources planning and management. Deterministic and stochastic optimization and simulation models will be developed and applied. Problems addressed include water supply, water quality, and river basin development.
