Hydrology
                                    Hydor + logos (Both are Greek words)
                                “Hydor” means water and “logos” means study.

Hydrology is a science which deals with the occurrence, circulation and  distribution of water of the earth and earth’s atmosphere.

Hydrological Cycle: It is also known as water cycle. The hydrologic cycle is a continuous process in which water is evaporated from water surfaces and the oceans, moves inland as moist air masses, and produces precipitation, if the correct vertical lifting conditions exist.
