Hydrologic Modeling

Catalog description

Offered intermittently. Prereq., GEO 420 or NRSM 385 and ERTH 444 . This course will provide a general introduction to physical and mathematical modeling of surface and subsurface hydrologic processes. The course will focus on developing a process understanding, resulting physical and mathematical descriptions, and finally numerical simulation. The class will largely be hands-on and practice driven. Students will build models across the critical zone continuum - from atmospheric and surface processes through groundwater flow. Level: Graduate
