Sustainable Water Resources Management

The course introduces principles and methods of sustainable water resources management for the Master Environmental Engineering. The course includes water resources assessment and the necessary hydrological background on processes and water balances, integrated water resources assessment, flood and drought risk assessment, management and mitigation and planning for environmental hydrology.

Notes on Sustainable Water Management

Water and Environmental Engineering Techniques

Environmental Hydrology master course includes water quality of rivers, transport modeling in rivers and lakes, water quality of lakes, soil protection, soil water movement, groundwater quality, water and solute movement in aquifers, environmental water chemistry, restoration of systems, remediation methods, protection of groundwater and environmental engineering (artificial wetlands, reactive barriers).

Environmental Hydrology Notes

Tracer Hydrology

The course on tracer hydrology introduces the principles of the use of tracers in hydrology. Environmental tracers and artificial tracers are presented, methods of applying them for hydrological studies, interpretation and modeling. The lecture is offered as a block course at TU Darmstadt. Lecture notes can be found here.
