Five Most Promissing Topics of Research in Hydrology







Hydrology is a very old subject still; a lot of scopes are left in this subject which is hitherto unearthed. Below is the list of the five most promising topics of research that have steadily gained their presence in hydrology-related publications, in the last five years.

List of Most Promising Topics

â—¼ Building-induced rainfall redistribution(BIRR) 
â—¼ Rainfall nowcasting 
â—¼ Applications of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) in Hydrology 
â—¼ Post-fire hydrology in forest 
â—¼ Baseflow Signature Predictions
 
Building-induced rainfall redistribution(BIRR) 
Microtopography due to the building roofs and rainfall redistribution due to the same has significant effect on urban hydrology and as a result, it also influences the accuracy of flood forecasting models.

Rainfall nowcast 
Very Short Term ( 2 or less than 2-hour lead time) Rainfall forecasts (nowcasts) are useful in operational flood forecasting and the model which predict such storm is known as Rainfall Nowcasting models. Due to the high amount of variability development of accurate nowcast models are a challenging task.

Top Three Places to look for openings in hydrology

Top three places to find hydrology jobs Hydrology is a contemporary and dynamic topic of research. This area of research is always expanding its scope and from the days of measuring discharge to the application of GIS in monitoring and regulating the flow for better management of the resource, this area of research has endured a lot of developments. The very interdisciplinary nature of this topic makes it more interesting and attractive to any young researcher who has a desire to innovate and the agility to implement his/her innovation. In recent years due to the change in climate and global ecosystem, water is becoming scarce and competition to consume the same has been stupendous. That is why the management of this resource that also in an optimal manner is a need of the hour which requires a regular flow of learned person who has been trained to work in the challenging field of hydrology. As a consequence, this field requires manpower which is evident in the burgeoning demand for hy...
