Description
Volume III of Geospatial Information Handbook for Water Resources and Watershed Management discusses water and watershed issues such as water quality, evapotranspiration, water resource management, and ecological services.
Featured is a two-stage ditch and river geomorphology case study section with related water geospatial applications, including historical image analyses of floodplains and channels and resulting change in river geomorphology through erosion and transport and influence on dependent vegetation communities.
Captures advanced Geospatial Technologies (GT) and their applications to address a wide spectrum of water issues
Provides real-world two-stage ditch and river geomorphology case studies using river, stream and channel measures and change models, and bankfull discharge modeling
Global in coverage with applications demonstrated by more than 170 experts in water sciences and two-stage ditch and river geomorphology
This handbook is a wide-ranging and contemporary reference of advanced geospatial techniques used in numerous practical applications at the local and regional scale and is an in-depth resource for professionals and the water research community worldwide.

Persons
Over the years John and Lynn Lyon have worked on water issues with great interest and heart.
A hallmark of their scholarship has been helping others with scientific authorship. Books are a great way to capture thoughts and methods making them accessible to others worldwide. In that vein here they have advanced a whole cadre of thought leaders with a broad focus on water.
Whether local, regional, continental, or global scale water issues unite passions.
Part of the challenge is the breadth and complexity of water. If many people take a piece the whole society can fashion sustainable outcomes. The Handbook is focused on presenting a number of ways to facilitate these thoughtful contributions.
John earned his Doctorate at the University of Michigan and Lynn earned her Master's Degree at Ohio State University.
