What do hydrologists study?

Answer:

Hydrologists study how water moves across and through the Earth's crust. They study how rain, snow, and other forms of precipitation impact river flows or groundwater levels, and how surface water and groundwater evaporate back into the atmosphere or eventually reach the oceans.

Recall that the study of geography can be broken down into these six essential elements:

Essential Element Description
The World in Spatial Terms show and study relationships between people, places, and environments by mapping information about them into a spatial context
Places and Regions show the human and physical characteristics of places and regions on Earth and how identities and lives of individuals and societies are rooted in particular places
Physical Systems show how physical processes shape Earth’s surface and how they interact with the creation and distribution of Earth’s ecosystems
Human Systems show the distribution, migration, and settlement of human populations; economic systems and the use of resources; and how humans conflict and cooperate with one another
Environment and Society show how the physical environment is modified by human activities, largely as a consequence of the ways in which human societies value and use Earth’s natural resources
The Uses of Geography show how knowledge of geography allows for the development of understanding about the relationships among people, places, and environments over time
