   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrology
   
   Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Water covers 70% of the Earth's surface. Hydrology (from Greek: Yδωρ, hudōr, "water"; and λόγος, logos, "study") is the study of the movement, distribution, and quality of water throughout the Earth, and thus addresses both the hydrologic cycle and water resources . A practitioner of hydrology is a hydrologist, working within the fields of either earth or environmental science physical geography or civil and environmental engineering Domains of hydrology include hydrometeorology surface hydrology hydrogeology 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. Hydrological research is useful in that it allows us to better understand the world in which we live, and also provides insight for environmental engineering policy and planning Hydrology has been a subject of investigation and engineering for millennia. For example, in about 4000 B.C. the Nile was dammed to improve agricultural productivity of previously barren lands.

   Extractions: The Tragedy at Virginia Tech The tragedy at Virginia Tech on April 16, 2007 was compounded by the loss of a distinguished professor of hydrology, G.V. Loganathan , and eight promising hydrology students; Brian Bluhm, Matthew Gwaltney, Jeremy Nerbstritt, Jarrett Lane, Partahi Lombantoruan, Dan O'Neil, Juan Ortiz and Waleed Shaalan . The profession of hydrology will be set back for many years to come. We mourn this senseless loss and pray we never experience this again. The community of hydrologists and hydrogeologists worldwide join with the nation to offer our heartfelt condolences to the families, faculty, students and administration at Virginia Tech. The magnitude of this senseless tragedy will make it difficult to cope with for a long time. But with support of the communities, we must begin the healing process in the spirit of our lost colleagues.

4. Basic Ground Water Hydrology
   The hydrologic cycle is a constant movement of water above, on, and below the earth s surface. It is a cycle that replenishes ground water supplies.

   Extractions: HYDROLOGIC CYCLE The hydrologic cycle is a constant movement of water above, on, and below the earth's surface. It is a cycle that replenishes ground water supplies. It begins as water vaporizes into the atmosphere from vegetation, soil, lakes, rivers, snowfields and oceans-a process called evapotranspiration As the water vapor rises it condenses to form clouds that return water to the land through precipitation: rain, snow, or hail. Precipitation falls on the earth and either percolates into the soil or flows across the ground. Usually it does both. When precipitation percolates into the soil it is called infiltration ; when it flows across the ground it is called surface runoff . The amount of precipitation that infiltrates, versus the amount that flows across the surface, varies depending on factors such as the amount of water already in the soil, soil composition, vegetation cover and degree of slope. Surface runoff eventually reaches a stream or other surface water body where it is again evaporated into the atmosphere. Infiltration, however, moves under the force of gravity through the soil. If soils are dry, water is absorbed by the soil until it is thoroughly wetted. Then excess infiltration begins to move slowly downward to the water table. Once it reaches the water table, it is called

   Extractions: Research Applications Technology Local Weather Institution WELCOME to the Marshall Space Flight Center Earth Science Office. We provide integrated scientific understanding of the Earth system to enable better decisions improving the global quality of life. The ESO's many areas of study are closely related to each other. Like the climate and environment we study, no one aspect stands alone. Water vapor, winds, temperatures at different altitudes, lightning, aerosols, and other factors all connect in a complex, interactive Earth-atmosphere system. This is what makes our work both challenging and intriguing. The best way to grapple with so many questions is by scientists teaming across different disciplines and organizations. ESO scientists collaborate closely with other research centers, both in the United States and in other nations. We also work to spread awareness and understanding of our results among leaders and citizens of today and the future. Responsible Official: Dr. William M. Lapenta (bill.lapenta@nasa.gov)

10. What Is Hydrology And What Do Hydrologists Do?
    hydrology has evolved as a science in response to the need to understand the complex water systems of the Earthand help solve water problems.  
    http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/hydrology.html
    
    Extractions: Search USGS Water Basics Earth's Water Water Cycle Special Topics ... Home Water is one of our most important natural resources. Without it, there would be no life on earth. The supply of water available for our use is limited by nature. Although there is plenty of water on earth, it is not always in the right place, at the right time and of the right quality. Adding to the problem is the increasing evidence that chemical wastes improperly discarded yesterday are showing up in our water supplies today. Hydrology has evolved as a science in response to the need to understand the complex water systems of the Earthand help solve water problems. Hydrologists play a vital role in finding solutions to water problems, and interesting and challenging careers are available to those who choose to study hydrology. Students who plan to become hydrologists need a strong emphasis in mathematics, statistics, geology, physics, computer science, chemistry and biology. In addition, sufficient background in other subjectseconomics, public finance, environmental law, government policyis needed to communicate with experts in these fields and to understand the implications of their work on hydrology. Communicating clearly in writing and speech is a basic requirement essential for any professional person. Hydrologists should be able to work well with people, not only as part of a team with other scientists and engineers, but also in public relations, whether it be advising governmental leaders or informing the general public on water issues. Hydrology offers a variety of interesting and challenging carrer choices for today and tomorrow. It's a field worth considering.
