Welcome to VirtualRiver. Here you will find two
interactive exercises designed to help you learn about river processes like discharge, flooding, and
flood frequency. Each activity requires you to make careful observations and measurements, do simple
calculations, and answer questions about your work. A "Certificate of Completion" will be
available to you at the end of each activity.
IMPORTANT: Computer
and Operating System Requirements
DEMO: This is the demonstration version of VirtualRiver.
Answer checking is disabled.
If this is your first experience with hydrology (the science of the Earth' surface water),
complete the exercises in order. Most students can complete an exercise in about 1 to 1.5 hours.

first.)
