What exactly is a water professional?

A hydrologist: a scientist who studies the distribution, circulation, and physical properties of underground and surface waters as well as the form and intensity of precipitation, its rate of infiltration into the soil, its movement through the earth, and its return to the ocean and atmosphere.
