About

    Hydrometeorology is a field of study that focuses on the interactions between meteorological and hydrological processes. It involves the study of the distribution, movement, and properties of water in the atmosphere and on the Earth's surface, including precipitation, evaporation, surface runoff, and groundwater flow. Hydrometeorologists use a combination of meteorological and hydrological data, models, and techniques to study and forecast weather patterns, climate variations, and water resources, with the goal of improving water management, flood prediction, and drought mitigation strategies. It is an interdisciplinary field that combines elements of meteorology, hydrology, climatology, and environmental science.
