Intended learning outcomes
Overall objective: to study the phenomena connected with the movement of water on earth - rainfall, runoff, groundwater, evaporation, transpiration and infiltration.
Specific objectives:
- To analyze the needs and availability of water resources;
- To characterize and quantify the behaviour of hydrological phenomena;
- Quantification of the variables of the water cycle, particularly for irrigation and drainage systems and for the design of hydraulic structures (storm peak flow);
- Determination of the flood hydrograph damped by a reservoir and size rainwater retention basins.
