Features: This book summarizes the authors' 40+ years of experience in textbook writing and teaching, with its content having been applied and practiced by nearly 20 generations of students. The entire book emphasizes engineering practicality, professional specificity, and teaching inspiration. It cites the latest standards, specialized charts, and national isohyet maps of hydrological characteristic values, and incorporates new hydrological calculation achievements widely adopted by countries around the world in the 20th century, filling the gap in domestic hydrological problem-solving. Numerous examples are provided, with solution guides for each exercise that help reduce students' workload and enhance efficiency, enabling them to grasp more hydrological calculation principles and methods. The book consists of six chapters, including: River Runoff, Sediment Movement, Riverbed Evolution, Methods for Collecting and Organizing Hydrological Data, Principles and Methods of Hydrological Statistics, Design Annual Runoff, Calculating Design Peak Flood Flow from Flow Data, Calculating Design Peak Flood Flow from Precipitation Data, and Methods for Estimating Possible Maximum Precipitation and Possible Maximum Flood. This book is a supplementary text for the trial edition of the national university textbook Civil Engineering Hydrology (authored by Ye Zhen Guo, 2000.1) and can also serve as a reference for undergraduate, graduate, vocational, self-study, and engineering technical personnel.
