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 hydrometeorologyHydrometeorologyTextbooksHydrometeorologyHydrometeorologyHydrometeorology.551.57SCI042000bisacshShuttleworth W.
