California Water Symposium During this public symposium, students from LA222 (Hydrology for Planners) present their term projects to a panel of professionals and experts in the field. The course provides an overview of the relevant hydrologic, hydraulic, and geomorphic processes to provide the planner, ecologist, architect, and environmental scientist with insight sufficient to coordinate with technical specialists in the field of hydrology. Through the independent term projects, students apply the process- and field-based approach to hydrology offered through this course, involving substantial peer and instructor review, revision, and original research, as well as inclusion in the permanent collection of the UC Water Resources Center Archives.
