Yellow River – A Hydrological Basin Approach

22 September 2020

 

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 the webinar, Albrecht Weerts of Deltares shared the challenges of setting up a conceptual hydrological model for the Yellow River Basin and other rivers. He also focused on the open-source platform Blue Earth tool and computational framework, which helps assess river basin scenarios and improve water management decisions.
