Abstract :
Ecohydrology is a scientific concept which suggests that the sustainable development of water resources has been dependent on the ability to maintain the ecosystem processes that have been established by evolution. These ecosystem processes regulate water and nutrient circulation and energy flow at the basin scale in two ways: biota are regulated by hydrology and hydrology is regulated by biota (Zalewski, 2000) (Zalewski, 2002). The simulation of hydrological processes allows us better managing of natural environment and industrial resources. Visualization of numerical results of these processes in 3D world is an original and new approach. Mathematical and graphical modules are separate each other, what makes the application practicable and in the future allowed use this model to another resolves
