Hydrogeology - Online Journals

 Hydrology means the scientific study of the movement, distribution and management of water on Earth and on other planets, including the water cycle, water resources and sustainability of the environmental watershed. A practitioner of hydrology is named a hydrologist. Hydrologists are scientists studying earth or ecology, civil or environmental engineering and physiographyThey collect and analyze data using various analytical methods and scientific techniques to assist in solving water-related issues such as environmental preservation, natural disasters, and water management. Hydrology is divided into hydrology of surface water, hydrology of ground water, and hydrology of the sea. Hydrology fields include hydrometeorology, hydrology of the surface, hydrogeology, drainage and water quality, where water plays a central role.Oceanography and meteorology are not included as water is just one of many important aspects in these areas. Hydrological research can inform environmental engineering, policy and planning. Hydrology is about water research.Hydrologists study the physical processes involved in the global water cycle, which encompasses most Earth and environmental sciences disciplines. The hydrological profession comprises physical scientists , engineers and water resource managers and is distinct from the oceanographic and atmospheric science communities in general practice.the world Systems and ecology module adopts this convention, and this text provides an summary of the core areas of hydrology
