Activities range from river and maritime hydraulics to water resources development andeco-hydraulics,throughtoiceengineering,hydroinformaticsandcontinuingedu- cationandtraining.IAHRstimulatesandpromotesbothresearchanditsapplication, and,bydoingso,strivestocontributetosustainabledevelopment,theoptimisationof worldwaterresourcesmanagementandindustrialflowprocesses.IAHRaccomplishes itsgoalsbyawidevarietyofmemberactivitiesincluding:theestablishmentofworking groups,congresses,specialtyconferences,workshops,shortcourses;thecommission- ing and publication of journals, monographs and edited conference proceedings; involvement in international programmes such as UNESCO, WMO, IDNDR, GWP, ICSU,TheWorldWaterForum;andbyco-operationwithotherwater-related(inter) nationalorganisations.www.iahr.org Experimental Hydraulics Methods, Instrumentation, Data Processing and Management Volume I: Fundamentals and Methods Editors Marian Muste (Editor-in-Chief) IIHR–Hydroscience&Engineering,UniversityofIowa,IowaCity,IA,USA Dennis A.

IAHR is particularly well-served in this regard by its flagship journals and by the extensive and wide body of substantive historicalandreflectivebooksthathavebeenpublishedthroughitsauspicesoverthe years.TheIAHRBookSeriesisaninitiativeofIAHR,inpartnershipwithCRCPress/ Balkema–Taylor&FrancisGroup,aimedatpresentingthestate-of-the-artinthemes relatingtoallareasofhydro-environmentengineeringandresearch. TheBookSerieswillassistresearchersandprofessionalsbyadvancingandtransfer- ringcontemporaryknowledgeneededforresearch,educationandengineeringpractice. The series includes Design Manuals and Monographs. The Design Manuals, usually preparedbymultipleauthors,guidetheapplicationoftheoryandresearchfindingsto engineering practice; and, the Monographs give state-of-the-art coverage of various significanttopicsinwaterengineering. The first and highly successful IAHR book was “Turbulence Models and their ApplicationinHydraulics’’byW.Rodi,publishedin1984byBalkema.“Turbulence inOpenChannelFlows’’byI.NezuandH.Nakagawa,alsopublishedbyBalkema(in 1993),hadanimportantimpactonthefieldand,duringtheperiod2000–2010,further authoritative texts (published directly by IAHR) included Fluvial Hydraulics by S.
