Hydrologic science is an applied science with an exciting array of applications for its technical models and methods. These applications are used for global water cycle [view report], surface water stream gaging [view report], and groundwater work. Groundwater models have both regulatory and scientific applications [view report], including those related to ground water vulnerability [view report] and mining effects on ground water [view report]. The U.S. Geological Survey runs the Ground Water Resources Program, which models, maps, and evaluates ground water systems in the nation. In 2000, the NRC evaluated regional groundwater studies conducted by the program [view report]. Technical applications also allow groundwater work to proceed in non-invasive ways [view report].
