Using a Hydraulic Mixing‑Cell to Characterize Surface Water – Groundwater Interactions in Snow‑Dominated Catchments - Aquanty Webinar
We’re pleased to share the recording of our recent webinar, Using a Hydraulic Mixing-Cell to Characterize Surface Water–Groundwater Interactions in Snow-Dominated Catchments. This session, presented by Benjamin Frot, PhD Candidate at Laval University, explores how integrated hydrologic modelling and innovative post-processing techniques can improve our understanding of groundwater contributions to streamflow, water age, and climate change impacts in snow-dominated watersheds.
Using HydroGeoSphere, the webinar demonstrates how a fully integrated surface water–groundwater model was developed for the Saint-Charles River watershed, the primary drinking water source for Quebec City. By applying the Hydraulic Mixing Cell (HMC) approach, the study quantifies groundwater contributions to streamflow, estimates water age, and evaluates how climate change may influence future water availability in snowmelt-driven catchments.
Key Highlights:
Learn how integrated hydrologic modelling improves understanding of surface water–groundwater interactions.
Explore the Hydraulic Mixing Cell (HMC) approach for quantifying groundwater contributions and estimating water age.
Discover how integrated modelling supports drinking water source vulnerability assessments.
See how climate change scenarios can be incorporated to evaluate future water availability in snow-dominated watersheds.
This session is especially valuable for hydrologists, watershed managers, researchers, and water resource professionals interested in integrated modelling, source water protection, and climate change impacts on water resources.
Watch the recording now to discover how HydroGeoSphere and the Hydraulic Mixing Cell approach provide new insights into groundwater dynamics and support more informed water resource management.
