Abstract/Additional Information

The Hydrology 201 webinar consists of four one-half hour segments. The first segment is a brief review of Hydrology 101 emphasizing some of the important hydrologic issues. The second segment will concentrate on the NRCS procedures to determine the loss rate function and the dimensionless unit hydrograph as it is utilized to transform excess rainfall into runoff. Different methods of determining time of concentration and lag time will be covered in this session. The third segment will be a brief introduction to the US Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Center’s computer model HEC-HMS, and the last segment will be an application of the NRCS procedures to a small watershed utilizing the HEC-HMS model.
