This book provides a professional text for undergraduate and graduate
agricultural and biological engineering students interested in soil and water
conservation in rural and urban areas. Subject matter includes all the
engineering students and for others interested in soil and water conservation in
rural and urban areas. Subject matter includes all the engineering phases of
soil and urban areas. The authors assume that the student has a basic knowledge
of calculus, surveying, mechanics, hydraulics, soils, and computers. The
analytical approach is emphasized and is supplemented by sufficient field data
to illustrate practical applications. The text emphasizes engineering principles
in the areas of erosion, drainage, irrigation, and water resources.
