Cryosphere and Hydrology

Title

Cryosphere and hydrology constitutes an applied branch of the physics of natural systems oriented to the study of water in solid and liquid states within the Earth system.
Its foundation lies in the application of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and transport to describe snow, glaciers, rivers, aquifers and associated hydrological cycles.
In addition, this discipline deals with the analysis of snowmelt, runoff, storage and water availability, which makes it possible to understand vital resources and relevant environmental risks.
