Modeling Hydrologic Effects of Microtopographic Features

Microtopographic features, such as natural depressions, wetlands, and raised roads, are very important in regulating watershed energy and water fluxes. Taking these features into account, watershed simulation models can better mimic hydrologic processes. This book discusses how to develop and use hydrologic models to quantify effects of microtopographic features on energy and water fluxes at watershed scale.
