3 1. Basic Hydrology Concept Water is vital for all living organisms on Earth. Water is vital for all living organisms on Earth. For centuries, people have been investigating where water comes from and where it goes, why some of it is salty and some is fresh, why sometimes there is not enough and sometimes too much. All questions and answers related to water have been grouped together into a discipline. For centuries, people have been investigating where water comes from and where it goes, why some of it is salty and some is fresh, why sometimes there is not enough and sometimes too much. All questions and answers related to water have been grouped together into a discipline. The name of the discipline is hydrology and is formed by two Greek words: "hydro" and "logos" meaning "water" and "science". The name of the discipline is hydrology and is formed by two Greek words: "hydro" and "logos" meaning "water" and "science". 1.1. Introduction

4 What is Hydrology? What is Hydrology? –It is a science of water. –It is the science that deals with the occurrence, circulation and distribution of water of the earth and earth’s atmosphere. A good understanding of the hydrologic processes is important for the assessment of the water resources, their management and conservation on global and regional scales.

7 Hydrologic cycle…. Water, irrespective of different states, involves dynamic aspect in nature. Water, irrespective of different states, involves dynamic aspect in nature. The dynamic nature of water, the existence of water in various state with different hydrological process result in a very important natural phenomenon called Hydrologic cycle.

8 Hydrologic cycle…. Evaporation of water from water bodies, such as oceans and lakes, formation and movement of clouds, rain and snowfall, stream flow and ground water movement are some examples of the dynamic aspects of water.

The hydrologic cycle has importance influence in a variety of fields agriculture, forestry, geography, economics, sociology, and political scene. Engineering application of the knowledge are found in the design and operation of the projects dealing with water supply, hydropower, irrigation & drainage, flood control, navigation, coastal work, various hydraulic structure works, salinity control and recreational use of water.

11 The area of land draining in to a stream or a water course at a given location is called catchment area / drainage area / drainage basin / watershed. The area of land draining in to a stream or a water course at a given location is called catchment area / drainage area / drainage basin / watershed. A catchment area is separated from its neighbouring areas by a ridge called divide / watershed. A catchment area is separated from its neighbouring areas by a ridge called divide / watershed. 1.3 Water Budget Equation Catchment area

12 A watershed is a geographical unit in which the hydrological cycle and its components can be analysed. The equation is applied in the form of water-balance equation to a geographical region, in order to establish the basic hydrologic characteristics of the region. Usually a watershed is defined as the area that appears, on the basis of topography, to contribute all the water that passes through a given cross section of a stream.

13 Watershed and watershed divide Watershed/ catchment Watershed divide

14 If a permeable soil covers an impermeable substrate, the topographical division of watershed will not always correspond to the line that is effectively delimiting the groundwater.

16 Water Budget Equation For a given catchment, in an interval of time ∆t, the continuity equation for water in its various phases can be given as: For a given catchment, in an interval of time ∆t, the continuity equation for water in its various phases can be given as: Mass inflow – Mass outflow = change in mass storage If the density of the inflow, outflow and storage volumes are the same: If the density of the inflow, outflow and storage volumes are the same: V i - Inflow volume in to the catchment, V o - Outflow volume from the catchment and ∆S - change in the water volume

17 Therefore, the water budget of a catchment for a time interval ∆t is written as: Therefore, the water budget of a catchment for a time interval ∆t is written as: P – R – G – E – T = ∆S P = Precipitation, R = Surface runoff, G = net ground water flow out of the catchment, E = Evaporation, T = Transpiration, and ∆S = change in storage The above equation is called the water budget equation for a catchment The above equation is called the water budget equation for a catchment NOTE: All the terms in the equation have the dimension of volume and these terms can be expressed as depth over the catchment area.

25 Compaction - Densification of soil by removing air voids using mechanical equipment As compaction increases, the following occurs: –Strength increases –potential for settlement decreases –permeability decreases In soils compaction a function of water content Compaction
