Leonardo da Vinci studied hydrology and hydraulics during the Renaissance.

The Continuity Principle was recognized in the 17th century

Korea used rain gauges in the 15th century early.

The Scholastic era hindered scientific progress by its influence.

Analysed flood flows of the Tiber River.

Leonardo da Vinci introduced the continuity equation.

Benedetto Castelli introduced the discharge equation.

Sir Christopher Wren developed the Tipping-Bucket Rain Gauge.

Pierre Perrault studied Seine River catchment area, rainfall, and annual discharge.

Henry de Pitot collaborated with Edmond Halley and Pierre Perrault.

Pitot Tube improved flow measurement accuracy by overcoming float limitations.

Edmé Mariotte used floats to measure flow velocity.

Condensation is the primary method water returns to Earth from the atmosphere.

Evaporation occurs on both sea and land surfaces.

Plants absorb water and release water vapor.

Temperature is the main factor controlling evaporation rate.

Water vapor changing to liquid.

The part of the plant absorbing water for transpiration.

Pierre Lois Georges du Buat developed a complex form of the Chézy equation.

Ganguillet and Kutter proposed the Kutter equation based on Swiss river flow data.

Robert Manning noted dimensional non-homogeneity in the Kutter equation.

Henry Darcy formulated the Darcy Law and introduced theoretical groundwater aspects.

Thomas James Mulvaney developed the Rational Method.

Dupuit derived well discharge equations from Darcy's laws.

Hydrology is important in designing water conveyance systems.
