Computer Methods and Water Resources. 1st International Conference, Morocco 1988: Volumes 1-6

The analysis and design of water resources systems are extremely complex. This complexity is due to the numerous simultaneous objectives and purposes of these systems, the changeable character of their components, their stochastic nature and the different scales under consideration. The importance of these systems cannot however be overemphasized, as water is a precious resource on which the well-being of future generations strongly depends. Developing countries in particular, have suffered and continue to suffer from repeated droughts. Better tools for water resources assessment are needed to provide for their optimum designs and their wise planning and management. Advanced computational techniques are of permanent importance for the efficient utilization of water resources and are particularly useful to developing countries as they can provide a way of optimizing their resources. The 1st International Conference on Computer Methods and Water Resources in Africa was convened in order to discuss these problems.
