Liquid Landscapes Hydrological Perspectives

Abstract

Scott Alexander McKendrick*

Water, the elixir of life, plays a pivotal role in shaping our landscapes. Hydrology, the study of water, is a multidisciplinary field that examines the distribution, movement, and properties of water in the Earth's atmosphere and on its surface. In the context of landscapes, the intricate dance between water and land creates what can be termed as "liquid landscapes." This article delves into the hydrological perspectives that define these dynamic and ever-changing environments. Hydrological modeling finds applications across various domains, providing insights into water availability, flood forecasting, drought assessment, and the impact of land-use changes.
