Course abstract | |
The main objective of the course is to provide Master students with increased and interdisciplinary understanding in both the theoretical and practical aspects of Applied hydrology and Meteorology. The application of the lectures and practical works ensure detailed insight in the concept of atmospheric basics, weather forecasting and hydrologic cycle balance and maximum discharge probobility calculation methods. | |
Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
Upon completion of the course Master students will gain:
• Knowledge in Applied hydrology and atmospheric basics. • Skills to overview the interdisciplinary character of river basin water balance and theoretical discharge computations; • Competence in collecting, evaluating, analysing and using the information in the field of meteorological data preparation, hydrometrical and hydrological parameter theoretical distribution probobility calculations. |
