Course Description: Analysis of flow in pipe systems, open channels, measuring devices, and model studies. Design of hydraulic systems associated with water supply, flood control, water storage and distribution, sewer systems, and other water resources.
Course Description: Application of continuity, momentum, and energy principles to steady flow in open channels; flow in open channels; flow in the laminar and transition ranges; specific energy and critical depth; energy losses; channel controls; gradually and rapidly varied flow; and high velocity flow.
Course Description: Study of hydrologic and ecological mechanisms in climate-soil-vegetation interactions and soil moisture dynamics. Focus on soil water dynamics, evapotranspiration, eco-hydrologic optimality, vegetation and water dynamics, and climatic variability impacts on ecosystem structure and the water cycle.
Course Description: Stochastic process, probability and statistics applied to hydrologic problems. Data synthesis, frequency analysis, correlation, time series, and spectral analysis.
