This technical volume for engineers explores the effects of land use management and agricultural practices on soil hydrology, providing nineteen articles on a wide variety of related subjects in data modeling. Beginning with an overview of soil hydrology principles, the essays cover topics such as hydrological modeling for stream water availability, modeling agricultural management systems with APEX, case studies in hydrological modeling in the Kosi Himalayan basin, climate change and soil hydrology, and soil erosion under future climate change models. Chapters include numerous illustrations, tables and technical drawings. The contributors are soil scientists and practicing engineers from a variety of international institutions.
