Chapter 4, the shortest in the book, deals with river flow modelling, and centres round the St. Venant equations and their variants: in particular, short wave and long wave approximations, which give rise to the shallow water equations and slowly-varying flow, respectively. Waves are discussed, including the monoclinal flood wave, and there are substantial discussions of roll waves and tidal bores.
