Hydrology with Louise Arnal

On this episode of Halfway Expert I talk to hydrometeorologist Louise Arnal. We talk about what hydrology is and how it works, seasonal streamflow forecasting, floods, SciArt, and more!

On this episode of Halfway Expert I talk to hydrometeorologist Louise Arnal. I've spent exactly one week studying hydrology in general and Louise's specialties in particular, and I'm ready to act like I'm the expert and for Louise to correct me.

We talk about what hydrology is and how it works, seasonal streamflow forecasting, floods, SciArt, and more!

I have a bibliography of the books and articles I consulted during my one week of studying, and Louise has made a list of five recommended texts within her discipline. You can find both here.

I am always on the lookout for new topics to discuss and new experts to discuss them with. If you'd like to suggest a topic or an expert, or if you are an expert and you'd like to talk about your discipline with me, please contact me!
