Hydrology is the science which studies the water cycle as a whole, hence the water exchanges between soil and atmosphere (precipitation and evaporation) but also between the soil and sub ground (groundwater). Switzerland has a varied and complex hydrological system.
List of lakes with a dam in Switzerland with a volume of more than 10 million cubic metres (m³): Dammed lakes with their location, volume, area and depth, as well as information on the relevant dam(s)
Giuliano Di Baldassarre is a professor of hydrology at Uppsala University and the Director of the Centre of Natural Hazards and Disaster Science, Sweden. [1] He was awarded the American Geophysical Union Whiterspoon Lecture in 2020 [ 2 ] and the European Geosciences Union Plinius Medal in 2021.
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 data and their characteristics can be graphically displayed and studies ...

Area of Jura water correction. The correction of the waters of the Swiss Jura consisted of a wide series of hydrological undertakings carried out in Switzerland in the region of the three lakes: Lake Murten connected to Lake Neuchatel by the Broye Canal, the latter connected to Lake Biel by the Thielle Canal, an area called the "Seeland”.
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.
Hydrogeomorphology has been defined as “an interdisciplinary science that focuses on the interaction and linkage of hydrologic processes with landforms or earth materials and the interaction of geomorphic processes with surface and subsurface water in temporal and spatial dimensions.” [1] The term 'hydro-geomorphology’ designates the study of landforms caused by the action of water.
