This comprehensive textbook serves as an invaluable resource for engineering and science students seeking to acquire fundamental, intermediate, and advanced skills in hydraulics, hydrology, and environmental engineering. It encompasses a wide range of topics, including open channel flow, ocean waves, kinematic wave modeling, flood forecasting, groundwater production, evapotranspiration, rainfall runoff modeling, cost benefit analysis, environmental evaluation, air quality control, carbon capture and storage, atmospheric dispersion, water pollution, water treatment, wastewater treatment, environmental impact assessment, and uncertainty management. Hydrology and environmental engineering are seamlessly integrated with fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, with a strong emphasis on distinguishing between theoretical and empirical findings. Throughout the text, written challenges are provided to encourage readers to derive essential theoretical results independently. Each chapter is accompanied by a collection of related practical problems, accompanied by detailed worked solutions, many of which include concise and self-contained MATLAB codes. The book offers a wealth of theoretical and practical exercises designed to assist teachers in creating innovative learning experiences for their students both in the classroom and at home. Furthermore, it provides a rich environment for students and researchers to hone their mathematics skills and explore the art of deriving analytical solutions within the context of environmental engineering.
