Eine ausführliche, modern gehaltene Diskussion der Vorteile und neuen Herausforderungen, die sich durch die Einführung komplizierter numerischer Analysen in die Umweltwissenschaften ergeben haben. Sie richtet sich vor allem an Geomorphologen, denen der Zugang zur mathematisch-technisch orientierten Fachliteratur bisher schwerfiel und die sich für neue Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet der hochauflösenden hydraulischen Modellierung interessieren.
