CEE 3323 - Water Resources Engineering

Credits: 3

Introduces the hydrologic cycle and associated atmospheric processes through derivation and practical application of the hydrologic budget equation, encompassing precipitation, evaporation, transpiration, groundwater flow, and surface water runoff. Examines unit hydrographs and flood hydrograph routing through application of hydrologic simulation models. Exposes students to probabilistic analysis and extreme value theory for determination of flood and drought hazard. Interpretation and statistical analysis of climatologic, hydrologic, and other environmental data are emphasized. Introduces concepts of professional engineering practice, with emphasis on the need for professional licensing and project management through all phases of a typical project, including conception, planning, preparation of design drawings and specifications for bidding and procurement purposes, the interaction of design and construction professionals, and water resource systems operation. Prerequisite: CEE 2304 . Prerequisite or corequisite: CEE 2342 /ME 2342 .
