Hidrológicas

Hidrológicas refers to the study and application of the principles of hydrology, which is the science that deals with the waters of the Earth, their circulation, distribution, and physical and chemical characteristics, including their occurrence, movement, and development in the past, present, and future, in natural and man-made systems, including, but not limited to, the waters of the atmosphere, on the surface and beneath the ground, of lakes and of oceans. Hidrológicas processes encompass the entire water cycle, from evaporation and transpiration to precipitation, surface runoff, infiltration, and groundwater flow. Understanding these hidrológicas phenomena is crucial for managing water resources, predicting and mitigating natural disasters like floods and droughts, and assessing the environmental impact of human activities. Hydrological studies often involve collecting and analyzing data on rainfall, streamflow, water quality, and groundwater levels. These data are then used to develop mathematical models that simulate water movement and predict future conditions. Applications of hidrológicas knowledge are diverse, ranging from designing dams and irrigation systems to planning urban water supply and wastewater treatment. It is a multidisciplinary field that intersects with geography, geology, meteorology, civil engineering, and environmental science.
