This book provides a series of exercises of various types covering
matters of hydrology and watershed management. The exercises
include true/false questions, multiple choice questions, and
numeric, graphical, and analytical exercises. The questions draw on
the basic disciplines of hydrology and physics, with some stress
placed on correct or appropriate units. The questions reflect the
authors' many years of teaching watershed management at
undergraduate and graduate levels. Questions cover: 1. Terminology
and measurement of flow (and units) 2. Quantifying stream networks
3. Concepts of water balance and evapotranspiration 4. Slope
recharge, groundwater hydrology, and water-table/phreatic aquifers
5. Single and paired watershed experiments 6. Impacts of fires on
watersheds 7. Concepts and measurements of water quality 8.
Flooding forests 9. Valuation of water 10. Protection of forest
stream by buffers 11. Urban watershed concepts The book is
self-contained, and designed to be used at any time in any place,
either for revision or as source material for teaching. The work is
graded so that easier questions are presented early, followed by
harder questions. Answers are concise but contain enough
information to help students study and revise on a topic-by-topic
basis. The book concludes with suggestions for student exercises
and projects and is an invaluable resource for both students and
instructors.
