Costal Engineering and Hydrology

Hydrology is the study of the movement, distribution, and quality of water throughout the Earth, and thus addresses both the hydrologic cycle and water resources. Coastal Engineering to protect, or adjust, the coastlines against the impact from nature has always been one of the successful engineering disciplines by Sweco. Wind erosion, sub-surface hydrology driven erosion and mechanical wave erosion has to be dealt with in order for mankind to live in harmony with nature and its forces. Sweco manage all these engineering skills with latest state-of-the-art modelling computer software and methodologies.

Sweco engineers apply Hydrology in all sorts of Water Resource management assignment, e.g Hydropower & Dam design, Ocean outlets, sub-structures for Bridge design and Ports.
