Abstract

The environmental pollution has been a matter of concern since long. It has affected almost all phases of the modern life the world over, especially more in the past two decades. Consequently, it has attracted globally the attention of scientists, engineers, hydrologists, planners, economists, sociologists, and environmentalists. Water pollution can occur above, on, or below the land surface in several forms. This chapter, however, deals specifically with the pollution of the surface water and its transport in urban areas during the processes of rainfall-runoff, river flow, and snowfall.
