Résumé :
|
This symposium, organized under five sessions, offered a broad perspective on these issues. They embrace such themes as: 1-links between atmospheric circulation patterns and hydrological extremes; 2-processes responsible for nonstationarity in time series of hydrological extremes; 3-4-methodologies for prediction of severity and magnitudes of droughts and floods; 5-mitigation of hydrological extremes. The contributions represent a variety of natural conditions from arid and humid tropics to tundra and glacial environments. This edited volume contains 39 contributions, a selection from the total of 80 abstracts sumitted to this symposium.
