Coupled Models for the Hydrological Cycle Integrating Atmosphere, Biosphere and Pedosphere /

Hydrologists, climatologists, soil scientists and environmental engineers are frequently asked to analyse complex environmental problems. It is becoming increasingly apparent that these problems usually involve feedbacks between atmospheric, ecological, and hydrological systems, as well as human soc...
