Covers all aspects of the hydrologic cycle, and the manner in which they may be modified to deal with floods, droughts, potable water supply and urban drainage. For anyone who expect to become involved in programs that are concerned with the development, management and protection of water resources.

The fourth edition of Introduction to Hydrology fully meets the contemporary needs of water scientists and engineers. Its clearly organized format makes this text accessible to both students and practitioners concerned with the development, management, and protection of water resources, and its logical course of development provides material for both introductory and more advanced courses. Featuring solved examples, chapters relating science to public policy, and reviews of current models, this text is not only a comprehensive look at the field of hydrology, but an exploration of current issues affecting the discipline today.
Introduction to Hydrology has been updated throughout with new computer approaches and coverage of the use of spreadsheets woven into problem-solving techniques when appropriate. In addition, two new features have been added to each chapter to enhance student comprehension: an introductory statement of contents; and a conclusion summing up key points. Learning Aids
