A Hydrologist studies the movement, distribution, and quality of water within the Earth's crust to manage water resources effectively. They work on tasks such as collecting and analysing water samples, monitoring flood risks, modelling groundwater flow, and assessing the impact of human activities on water systems.

Hydrologists may be involved in both fieldwork and office-based roles, focusing on sustainable water management, regulatory compliance, and flood mitigation strategies.
