INTRODUCTION TO HYDROLOGY

EAS 34500 and EES #xxx INTRODUCTION TO

HYDROLOGY

Introduction to Hydrology treats the flow of water on and below the surface

of the Earth. It involves mainly water QUANTITY (as opposed to QUALITY)

and treats river flood forecasting and ground water flow to wells.

It also treats stream erosion, sediment transport, and soil deposition.

The material here includes

1. Course Outline.

2. Laboratory Exercises.

3. Powerpoint Presentations.

4. Animation Programs.

5. Sample Tests.

INTRODUCTION TO HYDROLOGY

Instructions:
1: Copy all programs to the same directory as the Powerpoint Presentations
2: Rename the programs by changing the extension (.abc) to (.exe). This will allow the programs to
run
Run the programs in Powerpoint or as STAND ALONE PROGRAMS as follows
1: Click on the PROGRAM NAME TO RUN AS STAND ALONE or Click on the box in PPT with the Program's
Name.
2: When the warning about viruses pops up click YES (these programs are not viruses)
3: Maximize the small white screen (FORM 1) that pops up.
4: Click inside the white screen and follow any directions exactly.
5: If the program fails to run the first time, delete the screen and repeat.
6: Don't worry.
