Both hydrologists and meteorologists need to speak a common scientific language, and
this has given rise to the new scientific discipline of hydrometeorology, which deals
with the transfer of water and energy across the land/atmosphere interface. Terrestrial
Hydrometeorology is the first graduate-level text with sufficient breadth and depth
to be used in hydrology departments to teach relevant aspects of meteorology, and
in meteorological departments to teach relevant aspects of hydrology, and to serve
as an introductory text to teach the emerging discipline of hydrometeorology. The
book will be essential reading for graduate students studying surface water hydrology,
meteorology, and hydrometeorology. It can also be used in advanced undergraduate courses,
and will be welcomed by academic and professional hydrologists and meteorologists
worldwide.--Résumé de l'éditeur ; This book on Terrestrial Hydrometeorology is needed
because there is currently no single graduate level text with sufficient breadth across
the hydrological and meteorological sciences that provides understanding with sufficient
depth and detail in both disciples for use (a) in hydrology departments to teach relevant
aspects of meteorology; (b) in meteorological departments to teach relevant aspects
of surface hydrology; and (c) to teach the emerging discipline of hydrometeorology.--Résumé
