Course description
The water cycle in its atmospheric and surface component will be studied. Thus, the bases of atmospheric circulation, its relationship with the formation of waves and currents in the sea, as well as the relationship of the climate with extreme events (droughts and flood risk) will be raised. The processes and methods of transforming rain into runoff will be analyzed. Finally, the main processes of surface water contamination will be considered, thus giving an overview of surface hydrology in general and providing the capacity for its application to engineering problems.
