We’re pleased to share the recording of our recent webinar, The Hidden Role of Geomorphological Change in Watershed-Scale Redistributions of Groundwater and Surface Water. This session, presented by Marcia Achiaa Frempong, PhD candidate at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, explores how changes in watershed geomorphology can influence groundwater–surface water interactions and redistribute water across landscapes over time.
Using HydroGeoSphere, the webinar examines how changes in river morphology can alter groundwater and surface water dynamics at the watershed scale. By simulating different land surface configurations and river morphologies, the study demonstrates how localized geomorphic changes, such as river cutoffs, can influence groundwater levels well beyond the river corridor, with important implications for water availability and natural hazard mitigation.
Key Highlights:
Learn how geomorphological change can influence groundwater–surface water interactions at the watershed scale.
Explore how HydroGeoSphere can be used to simulate the hydrologic impacts of changing river morphology.
Understand how localized changes, such as river cutoffs, can create areas of groundwater enrichment and depletion.
Discover the broader implications of geomorphic change for water resource management and natural hazard mitigation.
This session is especially valuable for hydrologists, hydrogeologists, researchers, and water resource professionals interested in understanding how evolving landscapes influence coupled surface water and groundwater systems.
Watch the recording now to discover how integrated hydrologic modelling can reveal the often-hidden influence of geomorphological change on water movement and distribution across watersheds.
