Hydrology
The interdisciplinary study of the movement, characteristics and distribution of water, surface-water (fresh water and salt water), groundwater, and water-quality [1][2] Subdisciplines include:
- Chemical hydrology: the study of the chemical characteristics of water. Also called hydrochemistry, chemical hydrology deals with the chemical characteristics of the surface water (freshwater and marine) and subterranean water. Water is a chemical solvent and, interacting chemically with materials with which it comes into contact, can dissolve many elements.
- Drainage basin management hydrology.
- Ecohydrology (the study of interactions between organisms and the hydrologic cycle).
- Engineering hydrology
- Global hydrology
- Groundwater hydrology
- Hydrobiology
- Hydrogeology is the study of the presence and movement of water in aquifers.
- Hydroinformatics is the adaptation of information technology to hydrology and water resources applications.
- Hydrometeorology is the study of the transfer of water and energy between land and water body surfaces and the lower atmosphere.
- Isotope hydrology is the study of the isotopic signatures of water.
- Operational hydrology
- Qualitative hydrology
- Surface hydrology is the study of hydrologic processes that operate at or near the Earth's surface.
- Water resources development and management
