Learning Outcome: | Understanding of modelling and information management methods in hydroengineering projects using simulation and data analysis tools. |
Contents: | Modelling Process
- Modelling using hydroinformatics systems in hydroengineering projects
- Physical understanding, data preparation
- Model set-up, scenario definition, sensitivity analysis, result analysis
- Application examples for real case studies (in combination with Module 11225)
Methods and approaches for assessing groundwater resources regarding quality and quantity with a focus on the regional scale (large river drainage basins). Main topics are:
- Characterisation of groundwater quality; statistical methods to assess natural and anthropogenically influenced conditions; groundwater protection; examples from current research
- Balancing the water budget; components of the water balance, esp. groundwater recharge
- Environmentally important mass fluxes in soil and groundwater (esp. nitrogen, phosphorus)
- Modelling of water balance components and of mass fluxes; concepts, necessary data, validation, software; examples from current research
|
