The study of the properties of water, its distribution and circulation on and below the earth's surface and in the atmosphere (hydrologie)
The science dealing with the properties, distribution, and circulation of water (Source: Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, 1990)
The study of the cycle of water movement on, over and through the earth's surface The science dealing with the properties, distribution, and circulation of water
The study of the occurrence, distribution and chemistry of all waters of the earth
The science of water relating to occurrence, properties, distribution, circulation and transport of water
The science of the properties, distribution, and effects of water on a planets surface, in the soil and underlying rocks, and in the atmosphere
{i} study of the properties and distribution of water on the earth and in the atmosphere
The study of the characteristics and occurrence of water, and the hydrologic cycle Hydrology concerns the science of surface and ground waters, whereas hydrogeology principally focuses on ground water < back to top I
The science of water, its properties, phenomena, and distribution over the earth's surface
The study of the occurrence, distribution, and circulation of natural waters of the earth
Scientific study of the waters of the Earth, especially with relation to the effects of precipitation and evaporation upon the occurrence and character of ground water
the occurrence, distribution, and movement of water both on and under the earth's surface It can be described as the study of the hydrologic cycle
The scientific study of the waters of the earth, especially with relation to the effects of precipitation and evaporation upon the occurrence and character of water in streams, lakes, and on or below the land surface In terms of the hydrologic cycle, the scope of hydrology may be defined as that portion of the cycle from precipitation to re-evaporation or return to the water of the seas Applied hydrology utilizes scientific findings to predict rates and amounts of runoff (river-forecasting), estimate required spillway and reservoir capacities, study soil-water-plant relationships in agriculture, estimate available water supply, and for other applications necessary to the management of water resources Compare to hydrography
The science dealing with the study of water on the surface of the land, in the soil and underlying rocks, and in the atmosphere
the science dealing with the study of water on the surface of the land, in soil and underlying rocks, and in the atmosphere
Scientific discipline concerned with the waters of the Earth, including their occurrence, distribution, circulation via the hydrologic cycle, and interactions with living things. It also deals with the chemical and physical properties of water in all its phases
the study of the occurrence, distribution, and chemistry of all waters of the earth
