Abstract
DR CHRIS HEROLD (PrEng, FSAICE) specialises in water resources and water quality model development and assessment. His models have found wide practical application in catchment and systems analysis studies that have saved South Africa billions of rands. He is the author of 44 technical papers published locally and overseas and is the principal author of over 130 unpublished technical reports. Chris has actively participated in over a dozen Water Research Commission studies, most of which he has led. He obtained his BSc, MSc and PhD degrees at the University of the Witwatersrand. He formed Umfula Wempilo Consulting in 2000.
CHRIS HEROLD博士专门从事水资源和水质模型的开发和评估。他的模型在集水区和系统分析研究中得到了广泛的实际应用,为南非节省了数十亿兰特。他在本地和海外发表了44篇技术论文,并是130多篇未发表的技术报告的主要作者。克里斯积极参与了十多个水研究委员会的研究,其中大部分是他领导的。他在威特沃特斯兰德大学获得学士、硕士和博士学位。2000年,他成立了Umfula Wempilo咨询公司。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the South African Institution of Civil Engineering publishes peer reviewed papers on all aspects of Civil Engineering relevant to Africa. It is an open access, ISI accredited journal, providing authoritative information not only on current developments, but also – through its back issues – giving access to data on established practices and the construction of existing infrastructure. It is published quarterly and is controlled by a Journal Editorial Panel.
The forerunner of the South African Institution of Civil Engineering was established in 1903 as a learned society aiming to develop technology and to share knowledge for the development of the day. The minutes of the proceedings of the then Cape Society of Civil Engineers mainly contained technical papers presented at the Society''s meetings. Since then, and throughout its long history, during which time it has undergone several name changes, the organisation has continued to publish technical papers in its monthly publication (magazine), until 1993 when it created a separate journal for the publication of technical papers.
