Centre for Hydrology Reports

The Centre for Hydrology publishes most of its research in peer-reviewed articles that appear in international journals or as chapters in edited books (see publications archive), however there is great utility in having comprehensive descriptions of scientific studies that are freely available and permit fully reproducible research. To this end the Centre for Hydrology initiated a Centre for Hydrology Reports series in 2005 as a successor to the Division of Hydrology Reports that were produced from 1965 to 1995. On this page you will find published the Centre for Hydrology Reports and other miscellaneous science or data reports available for download. When referring to them, please reference as Centre for Hydrology Report #XX, Centre for Hydrology, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada. These reports and the Division of Hydrology Reports are also available in printed form and can be found in a collection maintained at the Centre for Hydrology’s main office: 117 Science Place, Saskatoon, SK or by request to Joni Onclin.
