Hydrology - an (incomplete) introduction

Jan Seibert, Department of Geography
University of Zurich

Summary

This Online Course is usually used as part of an introductury course in hydrology at the University of Zurich, where the online material complements traditional lectures and seminars. To support remote teaching in the current situation, we want to make our material accesible for hydrologists around the world. The amount of video material varies. For soil- and groundwater there are many videos, where Allan Rodhe explains various experiments and concepts. These are highly recommended! For other parts, there are fewer videos. The quizzes, however, cover most parts of hydrology.
