Hydrology in Practice has been described by CRC Press as "likely to be the course text for every undergraduate/MSc hydrology course in the UK". [3]The book has been reviewed by the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, [4] the Journal of the American Water Resources Association, [5] the Hydrological Sciences Journal, [6] and the Journal of Hydrology, [7] along with being cited ...
Oscar Edward Meinzer (November 28, 1876 – June 14, 1948) was an American hydrogeologist who has been called the "father of modern groundwater hydrology". [ 2 ] [ 4 ] [ 3 ] He was awarded the William Bowie Medal in 1943.
Groundwater engineering, another name for hydrogeology, is a branch of engineering which is concerned with groundwater movement and design of wells, pumps, and drains. [1] The main concerns in groundwater engineering include groundwater contamination , conservation of supplies, and water quality .
Herman Bouwer (1927–2013) was a hydrological scientist [1] who worked in groundwater hydrology and water resources management, with a specialization in the area of Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR). He was born in the Netherlands and moved to the United States in 1952 to study for his PhD at Cornell University .

Groundwater is water that is found underground in cracks and spaces in the soil, sand and rocks. Where water has filled these spaces is the phreatic (also called) saturated zone. Groundwater is stored in and moves slowly (compared to surface runoff in temperate conditions and watercourses) through layers or zones of soil, sand and rocks: aquifers.
Johannesson is the author of the book Rare Earth Elements in Groundwater Flow Systems which focuses on the geochemistry of the lanthanide series elements in groundwater environments. It was first published in 2005. [4] Since 2016 Johannesson has served as Co-Editor-in-Chief of the journal Chemical Geology.
Rain falling over a drainage basin in Scotland.Understanding the cycling of water into, through, and out of catchments is a key element of hydrology. Hydrology (from Ancient Greek ὕδωρ (húdōr) 'water' and -λογία () 'study of') is the scientific study of the movement, distribution, and management of water on Earth and other planets, including the water cycle, water resources, and ...
