Hydrology: Principle Analysis Design

An attempt is made to place before students (degree and post-degree) and professionals in the fields of Civil and Agricultural Engineering, Geology and Earth Sciences, this important branch of Hydroscience, i.e., Hydrology. It deals with all phases of the Hydrologic cycle and related opics in a lucid style and in metric system. There is a departure from empiricism, with emphasis on collection of hydrological data, processing and analysis of data, and hydrological design on sound principles and matured judgement.;Cover; Preface to the Second Edition; Preface to the First Edition; Contents; Part A Fundamental Hydrology; Chapter 1.
