Advances in Watershed Modeling: Hydrologic & Nutrient Processes, Conservation Management and Model Coupling
Advances in Watershed Modeling: Hydrologic & Nutrient Processes, Conservation Management and Model Coupling
Session ID#: 71289
Session Description:
Watershed modeling have been widely implemented to various science/engineering projects for goals of conservation management plans such as water quality protection and watershed restoration. Environmental concerns around the world haven been examined or alleviated by improved watershed modeling technologies and the associated developments. Meanwhile, more advanced techniques and approaches are still needed to resolve complex water quantity and quality issues caused by growing anthropogenic activities such as Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) in the Great Lakes Region (USA/Canada), soil erosion problems in Loess Plateau (Northern China), and scarcity of water resources in Africa. In addition, integrated modeling approaches (model coupling) may be required to explore challenging cross-surface, cross-scale, or cross-spatial topics. Since 2016, this session has been initiated to provide broad discussions among international scientists from different disciplines. We hope mutual efforts in this session can advocate advanced insights for future investigation on both modeling development and the corresponding management strategies.
