Beyond the university classroom, Hydrology and the Management of Watersheds provides a valuable overview of
hydrology and watershed management for administrators, planners, managers, and technicians dealing with the management
and utilization of natural resources. This textbook may also serve in the development of short courses and continuing
education programs for national and international agencies.
