Intro to Hydrology
CE 110 Hydrology
Cornelio Q. Dizon
Assistant Professor Institute of Civil Engineering University of the Philippines
CE 110 – HYDROLOGY
COURSE DESCRIPTION: Weather and hydrologic cycle; precipitation, evaporation, transpiration and infiltration; groundwater flow; rainfall-runoff relations; unit hydrograph; storage and channel routing; flood and drought frequency analysis
COURSE OBJECTIVES: To introduce students to the basic definitions and principles, analytical methods, design methods, and modeling techniques which comprise the knowledge base and practice of basic hydrology. To enable students to apply the theory and methods to hydrological problems of practical interest.
SCOPE: • • • • • Hydrologic Cycle and Weather: Precipitation & Streamflow Hydrologic Losses: Evaporation, Evapotranspiration, Infiltration Hydrologic Analysis: Rainfall-Runoff, Hydrograph Analysis Frequency Analysis and Flood Routing Groundwater Hydrology

Water Resources Engineering
• Water Resources Engineering is that branch of civil engineering concerned with maximizing the social and economic benefit associated with the world’s water resources while minimizing the adverse environmental impacts due to modifications to the natural environment.
Water Resources Engineering
The Science of Hydrology
• Hydrology is that natural science that is concerned with the occurrence, properties, distribution, and movement of water in the natural and man-made environment.
Hydrologic Cycle
• In a global sense, the occurrence, distribution and movement of water in the natural environment can be visualized through a cyclic process known as
