This authoritative book presents a comprehensive account of the important roles that nonlinear dynamic and chaos theories play in understanding, modeling and forecasting of hydrologic systems. This is achieved through the systematic presentation of: (1) the basic information on the salient characteristics of hydrologic systems and on the existing theories; (2) the fundamentals of nonlinear dynamic and chaos theories, and their identification and prediction; (3) a review of applications of these theories in hydrology; and (4) the scope and potential directions for the future. This book offers a bridge between the deterministic and the stochastic views in hydrology and is suitable as a textbook for hydrology courses.
