ADB Water and Deltares Seminar Series – Part 4
Yellow River – A Hydrological Basin Approach
22 Sep. 2020 • 09:00 - 10:00
It's the second to the last webinar of our series with Deltares. In this fourth session, a possible hydrological basin approach for the Yellow River in the People’s Republic of China will be presented, and a distributed hydrological model as part of an open-source modeling platform for hydrological simulations will be demonstrated. Various examples of its applications for modeling hydrological extremes under present and future climate, modeling effects of reservoirs, and/or sediment in large river basins will also be shown.
Further Description / Program
Water managers are continuously making decisions to guarantee water safety. These decisions relate to the short term; for example, ongoing droughts or when there is a risk of flooding. But these decisions can also affect the long term given the more extreme weather events caused by climate change. All these decisions have one thing in common: they are often grounded on results from hydrological models.
During this seminar, a possible hydrological basin approach for the Yellow River in the People’s Republic of China will be presented, and a distributed hydrological model as part of an open source modeling platform for hydrological simulations will be demonstrated. Various examples of its applications for modeling hydrological
extremes under present and future climate, modeling effects of reservoirs, and/or sediment in large river basins will be shown.
