| Main themes |
The main activity of the course is the presentation of a set of modelling tools which can be used for water management, through a set of case studies. The students will be initiated to different approaches for modelling the hydrological cycle, considering the technical and socio-economic constraints in hydrosystems. The following themes will be developed : water management decision support systems, water management planning tools, risk analysis tools (hydrological risks, flooding, climate change, water pollution), integrated hydrological modelliong : concepts, methodologies, design of monitoring networks, design of alerting systems, water management (hydraulic management, protection of pumping wells, land management).
|
| Aims |
At the end of this course in which different concepts and case studies of integrated water management will be illustrated, the students will have an overview on how integrated modelling of the hydrological cycle can be used to support integrated water management.
|
| Content |
