Studies and Reports in Hydrology

The purpose of the continuing series Studies and Reports in Hydrology is to present collected data and the main results of hydrological studies, as well as to provide information on hydrological research techniques.

Technical Documents in Hydrology

The Technical Documents in Hydrology series comprise publications of a preliminary nature and was originally conceived to expedite the exchange of information in those areas in which it is most needed. Several proceedings of symposia organized within the framework of the IHP are also included.

International Hydrology Series

The International Hydrology Series is a collaborative publishing programme between the International Hydrological Programme (IHP) of UNESCO and Cambridge University Press. The IHP addresses theoretical issues in the conduct of hydrological research, as well as practical, applied, and water management issues raised by hydrological projects. Authoritative and international in scope, the series constitutes a major collection of research monographs, synthesis volumes, and graduate texts. Orders for publications in the series must be sent to:

IHP Humid Tropics Programme Series

Scientific understanding of interactions between land, vegetation, oceans, atmosphere and human actions is one of the IHP's priorities in the humid tropics. By definition, the problems are multidisciplinary and the IHP encourages an integrated approach to studying the various links and linkages that make up the world's water cycle. This is accomplished through globally and regionally co-ordinated co-operative efforts by networks of experts and organizations, facilitated by the establishment of regional administrative centers. In the long run, of course, IHP wants to see the application of hydrological research results integrated to water management strategies. These include: improving agricultural productivity, providing water for irrigation and people, controlling urban water problems and developing land-use practices that meet these needs while, at the same time, reducing flood damage and the degradation of soils and water. It is expected that good water management in the humid tropics will also bring benefits to areas outside the region. Sustainable development and management is the key to long-term survival. It is within this framework that the IHP has undertaken the publication of non-technical documents covering the above issues, suitable for the higher-level decision maker and for the public.
