The exercises include true/false questions, multiple choice questions, and numeric, graphical, and analytical exercises.

The questions reflect the authors' many years of teaching watershed management at undergraduate and graduate levels.Questions cover:1. Terminology and measurement of flow (and units)2. Quantifying stream networks3. Concepts of water balance and evapotranspiration4. Slope recharge, groundwater hydrology, and water-table/phreatic aquifers5. Single and paired watershed experiments6.

Urban watershed conceptsThe book is self-contained, and designed to be used at any time in any place, either for revision or as source material for teaching. The work is graded so that easier questions are presented early, followed by harder questions. Answers are concise but contain enough information to help students study and revise on a topic-by-topic basis. The book concludes with suggestions for student exercises and projects and is an invaluable resource for both students and instructors.
