Since the framework for fully-integrated surface water and groundwater hydrologic models was first laid out over 50 years ago, considerable progress has been made towards realizing that vision. Today, fully integrated hydrologic models (such as HydroGeoSphere) are routinely applied to a wide variety of problems and scales.
Compared to traditional groundwater or surface water only models a fully integrated approach to simulating the hydrologic cycle presents a different set of opportunities (and challenges!). Making the transition to fully integrated modelling often requires a bit of a shift in perspective to fully realize the benefits of this powerful approach to water resources engineering.
Join Dr. Steve Berg to learn how you can maximize the power of HydroGeoSphere in your own modelling projects.
In this talk, we will:
Briefly discuss the seminal paper for this field on numerical modelling (Freeze and Harlan,1969)
Review the key process hydrologic processes handled by HGS and discuss what makes tightly-coupled integrated modelling so powerful
Review key applications for which this modelling approach excels
Review of ‘advanced’ HGS functionality
How to design an HGS model for your problem to best leverage it's strengths
Discuss the future of integrated hydrologic modelling (where are we heading)
