    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_hydrology

    Hydrometeorology – the study of the transfer of water and energy between land and water body surfaces and the lower atmosphere; Isotope hydrology – the study of the isotopic signatures of water; Surface hydrology – the study of hydrologic processes that operate at or near the Earth's surface

  3. Hydrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrology

    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 ...

  4. Bacteriological water analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteriological_water_analysis

    The common feature of all these routine screening procedures is that the primary analysis is for indicator organisms rather than the pathogens that might cause concern. . Indicator organisms are bacteria such as non-specific coliforms, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa that are very commonly found in the human or animal gut and which, if detected, may suggest the presence of se

    Articles relating to hydrology, the scientific study of the movement, distribution, and management of water on Earth and other planets, including the water cycle, water resources, and environmental watershed sustainability. A practitioner of hydrology is called a hydrologist.

  6. Ecohydrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecohydrology

    Conceptual model describing the mechanisms of water flow attenuation within a beaver wetland with an unconfined floodplain. Ecohydrology (from Greek οἶκος, oikos, "house(hold)"; ὕδωρ, hydōr, "water"; and -λογία, -logia) is an interdisciplinary scientific field studying the interactions between water and ecological systems.

  7. GIS and hydrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIS_and_hydrology

    Hydrologists make use of this hydrologic budget when they study a watershed. The inputs in a hydrologic budget include precipitation, surface flow, and groundwater flow. Outputs consist of evapotranspiration, infiltration, surface runoff, and surface/groundwater flows. All of these quantities can be measured or estimated based on environmental ...

  8. Catchment hydrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catchment_hydrology

    Catchment hydrology is the study of hydrology in drainage basins. Catchments are areas of land where runoff collects to a specific zone. This movement is caused by water moving from areas of high energy to low energy due to the influence of gravity.

    Table of geography, hydrography, and navigation, from a 1728 Cyclopaedia.. Hydrography is the branch of applied sciences which deals with the measurement and description of the physical features of oceans, seas, coastal areas, lakes and rivers, as well as with the prediction of their change over time, for the primary purpose of safety of navigation and in support of all other marine activities ...
