Reaching this understanding will require both exploratory research to better understand how the natural environment functions, and problem-driven research, to meet needs such as flood protection, supply of drinking water, irrigation, and water pollution. Collaboration among hydrologists, engineers, and scientists in other disciplines will be central to meeting the interdisciplinary research challenges outline in this report. New technological capabilities in remote sensing, chemical analysis, computation, and hydrologic modeling will help scientists leverage new research opportunities"--Publisher's description. 000720991 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000720991 650_0 $$aHydrology$$xResearch. 000720991 650_0 $$aHydrology. 000720991 650_0 $$aHydrologic cycle. 000720991 650_0 $$aBiotic communities. 000720991 650_0 $$aWater quality. 000720991 7102_ $$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$$bWater Science and Technology Board,$$eissuing body. 000720991 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$$tChallenges and opportunities in the hydrologic sciences.$$dWashington, District of Columbia : National Academies Press, [2012]$$z9780309222839$$w(OCoLC)785065795 000720991 852__ $$bebk 000720991 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10863898$$zOnline Access 000720991 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:720991$$pGLOBAL_SET 000720991 980__ $$aEBOOK 000720991 980__ $$aBIB 000720991 982__ $$aEbook 000720991 983__ $$aOnline
