Conference on Modelling Hydrology, Climate and Land Surface Processes
The integration of hydrology and meteorology is crucial for understanding present and future climate and its effects on various aspects of society. Extreme weather may cause increased frequency of floods, droughts, landslides and damages to infrastructure. The demand for and the production potential of renewable energy are also strongly linked to the hydrometeorological system.
The Norwegian Hydrological Council recognizes the need to bring together hydrologists and meteorologists to discuss the integration of meteorology and hydrology in all modelling activities that includes weather and water (e.g. weather forecasts, climate prediction, hydrological impact simulations including influence on water quality, climate and hydrological model coupling, environmental hazards).
The conference aims to address topics related to modelling the climate system and the interface with the land surface processes and hydrological impacts of climate change.
The target group is researchers and others with interest in the topics for the conference.
Final deadline for registration and payment was June 1, 2015.
