2. It begins with a storm …
They were rolls, waves that finished in a puff: known noises,
village things. Everything that we have here is animated, lively,
maybe because the distances are short and fixed as in a theatre.
The downpours were onto the courtyards here around, the
thunder up here above the roofs; I could recognize by ear, a
little further up, the place of the usual God that made storms
when we were children, He too a village character. Here all is
as if intensified, a matter of scale probably, of inner
relationships. The shape of the noises and of these thoughts
(which were, after all, the same thing) seemed to me for a
moment truer than true, but it cannot be recreated with words.

9. Introduction to Hydrology
The Water Cycle
The water on Earth flows from the atmosphere to the ground. And then
from the rivers to the sea, from where it returns to the atmosphere:
Hydrology is the science that studies these flows, which make up the water
cycle.

10. Introduction to Hydrology
The Water Cycle
The flows from the atmosphere to the surface of the Earth are called
precipitations. The water that reaches the ground can infiltrate and flow
within the soil or it can run off on the surface (these are referred to as
horizontal flows).
At the same time, there is evaporation from the soil and water surfaces, and
transpiration from plants and animals (in a word, evapotranspiration).
Infiltration and evaporation constitute the vertical flows.

11. Introduction to Hydrology
From where the Earth water arrives ?
During the first seconds after the Big Bang, hydrogen and Helium were
created. Accordingly to the actual cosmogenetic theories oxygen was
formed a little later. However, it is the third element more diffuse in the
universe.

If you consider that Helium is very much not reactive could not not a real

Earth.

19. Introduction to Hydrology
The Water Cycle
sustains Life on Earth
shapes the surface of the Earth
regulates the climate
The engine of the Water Cycle is composed of: solar radiation, which causes
gradients in temperature, pressure, and density, and the phase changes of water in
the atmosphere and within the soil; the force of gravity; surface tensions; and
electrochemical forces.

Therefore
We can conjecture that, maybe, is also true the reverse (water maintains life)
•but the hydrological cycle, se we see it, could also be the product of the
presence of life on Earth

52. The global hydrological cycle
the thousand longest rivers on earth
From the work "the thousand rivers” (i mille fiumi) by Arrigo Boetti and Anna-marie Sauzeau-Boetti
classification by order of magnitude is the most common method for classifying information relative to a certain category, in the case of rivers, size can be
understood to the power of one, two, or three, that is, it can be expressed in km, km2, or m3 (length, catchment area, or discharge), the length criterion is the most
arbitrary and naive but still the most widespread, and yet it is impossible to measure the length of a river for the thousand and more perplexities that its fluid nature
brings up (because of its meanders and its passage through lakes, because of its ramifications around islands or its movements in the delta areas, because of
man’s intervention along its course, because of the elusive boundaries between fresh water and salt water...) many rivers have never been measured because
their banks and waters are inaccessible, even the water spirits sympathise at times with the flora and the fauna in order to keep men away, as a consequence
some rivers flow without name, unnamed because of their untouched nature, or unnamable because of human aversion (some months ago a pilot flying low over
the brazilian forest discovered a “new” tributary of the amazon river). other rivers cannot be measured, instead, because they have a name, a casual name given
to them by men (a single name along its entire course when the river, navigable, becomes means of human communication; different names when the river,
formidable, visits isolated human groups); now the entity of a river can be established either with reference to its name (trail of the human adventure), or with
reference to its hydrographic integrity (the adventure of the water from the remotest source point to the sea, independently of the names assigned to the various
stretches), the problem is that the two adventures rarely coincide, usually the adventure of the explorer is against the current, starting from the sea; the adventure
of the water, on the other hand, finishes there, the explorer going upstream must play heads or tails at every fork, because upstream of every confluence
everything rarefies: the water, sometimes the air, but always one’s certainty, while the river that descends towards the sea gradually condenses its waters and the
certainty of its inevitable path, who can say whether it is better to follow man or the water? the water, say the modern geographers, objective and humble, and so
the begin to recompose the identity of the rivers, an example: the mississippi of new orleans is not the extension of the mississippi that rises from lake itasca in
minnesota, as they teach at school, but of a stream that rises in western montana with the name jefferson red rock and then becomes the mississippi-missouri in st
louis, the number of kilometres upstream is greater on the missouri side, but in fact this “scientific” method is applied only to the large and prestigious rivers, those
likely to compete for records of length, the methodological rethinking is not wasted on minor rivers (less than 800km) which continue to be called, and measured,
only according to their given name, even if, where there are two source course (with two other given names), the longer of the two could be rightly included in the
main course, the current classification reflects this double standard, this follows the laws of water and the laws of men, because that is how the relevant
information is given, in short, it reflects the biased game of information rather than the fluid life of water, this classification was began in 1970 and ended in 1973,
some data were transcribed from famous publications, numerous data were elaborated from material supplied non-european geographic institution, governments,
universities, private research centres, and individual accademics from all over the world, this convergence of documentation constitutes the the substance and the
meaning of the work, the innumerable asterisks contained in these thousand record cards pose innumerable doubts and contrast with the rigid classification
method, the partialness of the existing information, the linguistic problems associated with their identity, and the irremediably elusive nature of water all mean that
this classification, like all those that proceeded it or that will follow, will always be provisional and illusionary

The area covered by the mission goes from 60° North to 58° South. The data was
obtained with an X-band radar (NASA and MIL, that covers 100% of the area) and by
a C-band radar (DLR and ASI) that covers 40%.

The DLR and ASI data, nonpublic, would be available with a resolution of about
30m (1 arcsec). A model of the Earth’s surface, ETOPO1 Global Relief Model (which
includes bathymetry data) is available with a resolution of 1km and can be
http://www,analist.net
downloaded from NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center (Amante and Eakins,
2008). Global DEM’s, at various resolutions, from 1km to 2.5, 5, and 10 arcminutes,
are available at the worldclim website. The SRTM DEM at 90m resolution can be
obtained from CGIAR - Consortium for Spatial Information. In June 2009 a DEM
based on the ASTER satellite (GDEM) survey with a 30m resolution was produced.
The GDEM was obtained by stereoscopic correlation of 1.3 million optical ASTER
images, that cover about 98% of the Earth’s surface. The images can be downloaded
from NASA's EOS data archive or from Japan's Ground Data System.

Soil maps play an elemental role in Hydrology and Agrometeorology. The
only truly global soil map is that available from USGS Global Soil Regions
with a 60-arcsec resolution (FAO-UNESCO, 2005). Geological maps have now
been integrated by the OneGeology project. The USDA Soil Survey Division
also distributes global maps of wetland areas (which include: upland,
lowland, organic, permafrost and salt affected wetlands). The ISRIC
maintains a global database of soil profiles comprising over 12,000 profiles
with analytic descriptions and the parameters for 50 soil types (Batjes,
