Please join us TODAY Wednesday, September 27 at 12:00 p.m. ET for the second presentation in CUAHSI's 2017 Fall Cyberseminar Series: Towards a Global Integrated Hydrology Platform: Perspectives and Advances in Large-scale Modeling
Stefan Kollet (Research Center Jülich and Bonn University) Groundwater-to-atmosphere simulations including human water use at the continental scale (Read more<https://www.cuahsi.org/education/cyberseminars/current-cyberseminar-series/>) ________________________________ In the webinar, we will take a tour from groundwater across the land surface into the atmosphere inspecting important interfaces, and how these interfaces are treated theoretically and technically in coupled models of the terrestrial water and energy cycle. The human impact with regard to groundwater pumping and irrigation will be introduced, adding even more complexity to an already extremely intricate biogeophysical problem. Major challenges and simplifying assumptions will be discussed that are a prerequisite for interpreting simulation results and assessing uncertainty. Our tour will serve as the basis for introducing the Terrestrial Systems Modeling Platform (TerrSysMP) including simulation examples, which demonstrate the importance of closing the terrestrial water and energy cycle from groundwater into the atmosphere. Upcoming Talks: October 4 Update on the U.S. National Water Model, recent comparisons to observations David Gochis, NCAR October 11 Evaluating groundwater surface water interactions across the Continental U.S. using an integrated hydrologic model Laura Condon, Syracuse University All talks take place at 12:00 p.m. ET. Cyberseminars will be recorded and posted online for later viewing in our archives at: https://www.cuahsi.org/education/cyberseminars/archives/ ________________________________ Join Us!
