Kinematic wave modelling in water resources: a historical perspective Academic Article

abstract

• The history of the kinematic wave theory and its applications in water resources are traced. It is shown that the theory has found its niche in water resources and its applications are so widespread that they may well constitute what may be termed 'kinematic wave hydrology'. Few theories have been applied in hydrology and water resources as extensively as the kinematic wave theory. This theory, however, is not without limitations and when it is applied they must be so recognized. Copyright 2001 John Wiley and Sons, Ltd.
