Proceedings of the Conference on Interdisciplinary Analysis of Water Resource Systems Held at Colorado University,Boulder,Colorado,on June 19-22, 1973,

摘要

The Water Resources Systems Committee of the American Society of Civil Engineers'Technical Council on Water Resources Planning and Management saw a critical need for developing an interdisciplinary approach to water resources development. This Conference was intended as an effective means of advancing the systems approach in this area. Formal papers on six interdisciplinary efforts were selected as case studies,around which discussions were built. These six papers include interdisciplinary studies on: (1) Large reservoirs in Africa; (2) limnological modeling of the Great Lakes; (3) geothermal development; (4) the North Atlantic Regional Water Resources Study; (5) Corps of Engineers planning experience in the St. Louis-Maline Creek;and (6) University research in the Wisconsin River and the Lower Fraser River (Brit. Columbia) water quality studies. Discussions are given after each paper. Included also is an introductory article on the interdisciplinary aspects of water resources planning and management.
