abstract = "Even as hydroinformatics continues to elaborate more
advanced operational tools, languages and environments
for engineering and management practice, it necessarily
also promotes a number of concepts and methodologies
that are eminently applicable within the more
traditional areas of hydraulic research. Among the many
new possibilities thereby introduced, that of evolving
equations from hydraulic data using evolutionary
algorithms has a particularly wide range of
applications. The present paper is in two parts, the
first of which introduces the subject and outlines its
theory, while the second is given over to four
representative applications and to some of the most
immediate lessons that may be drawn from these. The
first of the applications is derived from a hydrologie
model but provides equations with purely hydraulic
interpretations. The second, taken from sediment
transport studies, raises the question of ambiguity in
the identification of 'thresholds' in physical
processes. It also provides a means for analysing the
significance of variables and indicates the need, or
otherwise, for introducing further variables. A third
example, based upon physical observations of salt water
intrusion in estuaries, introduces the application of
the present methods to accelerating prediction
processes, while the fourth example extends this kind
of application to cover numerically generated data, in
this case appertaining to the case of flow resistance
in the presence of vegetation.",
