A Note on Books:
There are two texts listed for this course. Both are simply recommendations. Any standard engineering text with a good coverage of surface water hydrology should be satisfactory.
- Chow, V.T., D.R. Maidment, and L.W. Mays. Applied Hydrology. McGraw-Hill. 1988. ISBN 0-07-010810-2.
- McCuen, R.H. Hydrologic Analysis and Design (3rd Edition). Pearson Prentice Hall. 2005. ISBN 0-13-142424-6.
Proficiency (and a good reading resource) in MATLAB or some other programming language will also be handy.
