it can be properly tested so that it can provide more credible predictions, or more<br />
insight into process underst<strong>and</strong>ing. Large field campaigns are continuing <strong>and</strong><br />
the valuable role <strong>of</strong> smaller catchment, process-focussed, studies is being recognised<br />
as the researchers have integrated their work with theoretical <strong>and</strong> modelling<br />
developments to ensure the results contribute to a wider underst<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
<strong>of</strong> patterns <strong>of</strong> hydrological variability. We hope that the case studies presented<br />
in this book, <strong>and</strong> the broader conclusions from this extraordinary range <strong>of</strong><br />
studies, have unequivocally illustrated the value <strong>of</strong> this investment, <strong>and</strong> act as<br />
encouragement for more, <strong>and</strong> more innovative, studies into spatial patterns in<br />
catchment hydrology.
