Project description

This course introduces the fundamental physical principles that are necessary to understand the distribution and dynamics of water near the Earth's surface. A quantitative approach will provide mathematical descriptions of hydrological phenomena that will be used for a variety of hydrological applications to river flow hydraulics, flood frequency analysis, evapotranspiration from terrestrial ecosystems, groundwater flow, and ecohydrological dynamics. The course will provide an introduction to hydrological processes and data analysis. The purpose of the laboratory is to illustrate in an experimental setting the principles and applications introduced in lecture.
