Operational hydrology report (OHR), 32. Cost-benefit assessment techniques and user requirements for hydrological data
In 1980 the Commission for Hydrology established a Working Group on Users' Requirements for Hydrological Information to study the determination of the economic value of hydrological data for water-resource projects and the use of cost-benefit criteria in the optimization of hydrological networks. The reports prepared by members of the group are presented in this publication together with the findings of an international Workshop on the Application of Cost-Benefit Assessment of Hydrological Data for Water-resource Projects held in Geneva in November 1982.
Operational hydrology report (OHR), 33. Statistical distributions for flood frequency analysis
The Commission for Hydrology at its sixth session in 1980 decided that a report containing detailed guidance on the merits and selection of distribution types for flood frequency analysis should be prepared. Accordingly the World Meteorological Organization Secretariat arranged the preparation of this report by Dr C. Cunnane, Department of Engineering Hydrology, University College, Galway, Ireland.
Operational hydrology report (OHR), 31. Management of groundwater observation programmes
This report, prepared by the Commission for Hydrology Rapporteur on Groundwater, by Dr Y. Bachmat, discusses the groundwater observation programme as part of a management- oriented information system and emphasizes the importance of such a programme for the rational management of groundwater resources.
Operational hydrology report (OHR), 27. Manual on water quality monitoring - Planning and implementation of sampling and field testing
This manual, the culmination of a Commission for Hydrology project, is intended as a practical handbook for those who plan water-quality sampling programmes, those who carry out the field work and for the training of personnel in the subject of water-quality data collection.

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 17. Case studies of National hydrological data banks (planning, development and organization)
Fourteen countries contributed information on the planning, development and organization of their national hydrological data banks, according to an annotated guideline provided to them.
Programme on Cooperation in Water-related Issues (CWI)
The objective of the Programme on Cooperation in Water-related Issues (CWI) is to increase the effectiveness and visibility of the activities of NHSs through inter-organizational collaboration in the field of water. It also strives to enhance the role of hydrological data and information in tackling various environment issues.

Hydrological Operational Multipurpose System (HOMS)
HOMS is the acronym for the Hydrological Operational Multipurpose System established by the World Meteorological Organization for the transfer of technology in hydrology and water resources.
This technology is usually in the form of descriptions of hydrological instruments, technical manuals or computer programs, material which has been made available for inclusion in HOMS by the Hydrological Services of member countries of WMO from the techniques which they themselves use in their normal operations. This is an important aspect of the HOMS philosophy in that it ensures that the technolo ...
Programme on Capacity-building in Hydrology and Water Resources
The main objective of the Programme on Capacity Building in Hydrology and Water Resources Management (CBH) is to facilitate the rational development and operation of NHSs, including staff education and training, increased public awareness of the importance of hydrologicalactivities, and provision of support through technical cooperation activities. CBH aim, whose implementation cross-cuts with that of BSH and HFW programmes, is to provide guidance material to assist NHSs in implementing institutional improvements, to build their capacity to assess the economic and social benefits of the servic ...
World Hydrological Cycle Observing System (WHYCOS)
The World Hydrological Cycle Observing System (WHYCOS) is a WMO programme aiming at improving the basic observation activities, strengthening the international cooperation and promoting free exchange of data in the field of hydrology.
Programme on Basic Systems in Hydrology (BSH)
The objective of the Programme on Basic Systems in Hydrology (BSH) is to assist NHSs in the development and maintenance of their activities for the provision of data and products with an emphasis on quality assurance, thereby promoting the effective use of hydrological data and information in support of sustainable socio-economic development. It covers the collection, transmission and storage of hydrologic data and their analysis. It is designed to facilitate assessment and appreciation of the socio-economic benefits of hydrological data and information, provision of water-related services and ...
