This course is aimed at training students in methods to
estimate streamflow at ungauged locations across different
time and spatial scales. Students will be introduced to
approaches through a series of lectures that are
supplemented by complimentary in-class exercises using data
and catchments from the United States. Through this
combination of lectures and hands-on experiences, the course
will emphasize the larger concepts of catchment processes
and behavior and deepen the students’ understanding of
catchment hydrology. </span><b><span
