HYDROLOGY
Hydrology is the scientific study of the movement, distribution, and quality of water on Earth and other planets, including the hydro logic cycle, water resources and environmental watershed sustainability. A practitioner of hydrology is a hydrologist, working within the fields of earth or environmental science, physical geography, geology or civil and environmental engineering.
Hydrology subdivides into surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology (hydro geology), and marine hydrology. Domains of hydrology include hydro meteorology, surface hydrology, hydro geology, drainage-basin management and water quality, where water plays the central role.
Oceanography and meteorology are not included because water is only one of many important aspects within those fields.
Hydrological research can inform environmental engineering, policy and planning.
