NGEA20 - Introduction to Hydrology

River in Central Sweden

 

Welcome to the homepage of the Hydrology course at the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem sciences!

 

 

This page will list all lecture notes. Some exercises and and data are only available via the servers at the department ("kursdata").

 

The course book for this course is

Available at webstores and listed as course literature in the local bookstores. In some webstores you can buy an electronic version which costs only half of what the printed one does (but the hardcover you might be able to sell so its a tough decision).
