| Summary |
|---|
Studied the basics of hydrology, quantification of water supplies in the hydrosphere. They studied elements of the hydrological balance, procedures for the measurement of basic hydrological variables, their statistical and graphical processing.
Further studies focused on soil forming factors, physical and physico-chemical characteristics of the soil, agrochemical soil characteristics, soil water, hydrostatics and hydrodynamics of soil water, soil classification. Finally, attention is paid to movement of water below the surface, hydropedological survey and soil water regime. |

2nd River Basin. Rainfall-runoff process in the basin. The hydrological cycle. Hydrological balance. Balance equations.
3rd atmospheric moisture. Fumes. Precipitation (formation of a species, extreme rainfall, precipitation measurements, surface and temporal distribution of precipitation.).
4th Watercourses. River network (classification essential characteristics). Water conditions and their observations. Flow measurement. Specific flow curve.
Lines fifth frequency and flow duration curves. Impacts to surface runoff. Maximum flow rates. Minimum flows.
Lines sixth frequency and flow duration curves. Impacts to surface runoff. Maximum flow rates. Minimum flows. Winter flow regime and ice phenomena. Floods.
Seventh water tank. Purpose of reservoirs and their distribution. River Basin reservoirs, determine the maximum amount of runoff. Dams. Thermal and chemical stratification. The movements of water masses.
8th subsurface water. Groundwater. Hydrological balance of groundwater quality and its evaluation. Underground drainage component. Overview of methods for determining the underground effluent constituents.
9th pedogenesis (pedogenetic factors - the mother substrate, climate, organisms, topography, groundwater, human activity, the effect of time), partial pedogenetic processes - weathering, soil humus, peat, translocation and accumulation).
