About the course
This course investigates basic hydrological processes such as precipitation, evaporation and runoff at an advanced level. You will gain an increased understanding of hydrological processes in order to qualitatively and quantitatively describe water flow and storage and different parts of the hydrological cycle. The course places a strong emphasis on the mathematical basis for hydrology.
