Entropy Theory and Its Application in Environmental and Water Engineering

Entropy Theory and its Application in Environmental and Water Engineering introduces entropy theory for practical applications.

The range of applications of entropy is constantly expanding and new areas finding a use for the theory are continually emerging.

The applications of concepts and techniques vary across different subject areas and this book aims to relate them directly to problems of practical environmental and water science.

Giving a thorough introduction to the use of entropy to measure the unpredictability in energy systems this book will add an essential statistical method to the toolkit of hydrologists, water resource managers and environmental engineers.
