Overview
Credit: 3 PDH
Length: 50 pages
Runoff from watersheds in the form of surface water and ground water has the potential to impact various other resources. One of the first steps taken in order to eliminate or mitigate those impacts would be to analyze the hydrologic condition of watersheds and address site specific conditions. Understanding the relationship of the various hydrologic factors of a watershed is essential to decrease the impacts of Stormwater runoff.
In this course, you will learn the steps required to analyze the hydrologic conditions of a watershed.
