EES5201

This course provides an introduction to the hydrologic cycle and water processes in the context of wildland watersheds. The course will cover the major components of the hydrologic cycle, including precipitation, canopy interception, evapotranspiration, infiltration, soil water storage, runoff, streamflow, and groundwater flow. The impacts of watershed management on water quantity and quality will be discussed using regional, national, and global examples, with an emphasis on solving real-world problems using hydrologic datasets.
