AdBPo GEOframe short course (18-02-2021): Modelling rainfall-runoff (and more)

 Now it is arrived the moment to talk about the traditional rainfall-runoff modelling. At first it looks like the usual soup. However the difference is the same that exists from a contemporary electric, auto-piloted car and the good-old Ford T. 

The pivot of all is, obviously, the informatics of OMS3 and of the today hardwares, that allow for multiple solutions and many degree of accuracy and investigation capabilities that were not allowed in the past. Nevertheless some new conceptual tools and theoretical contents emerged that also make the difference. 

Here the slides:

AdBPo GEOframe short course (17-02-2021): The kriging interpolation of meteorological data

 This is a short overview of what can be done within the GEOframe system for spatially interpolating meteorological data GEOframe.  


The main reference for these topics remains the longer talks given at the GWS2021 or (for the Italian speaking, what said for the class of Hydrological modelling). 

The slides of the day are available here

The exercise of the day are available here.

The video of the talk can be found here on Vimeo (in Italian)

Again on estimating hydro-meteo variables with Kriging

A more extensive treatment of the matter can be found here

AdBPo GEOframe short course (17-02-2021): The Energy Budget and Evapotranspiration

 This is a short overview of what can be done within the GEOframe system for estimating Evapotranspiration using GEOframe-Prospero.  The main reference for these topics remains the longer talks given at the GWS2021 or (for the Italian speaking, what said for the class of Hydrology).

AdBPo GEOframe short course (16-02-2021): Geomorphological analysis

Geomorphological analysis of a watershed finalized to the setting of the GEOframe hydrological model.


The class is organized in two parts:

1) Theory: Introduction to the digital watershed;  extraction and analysis of the main geomorphological features (slope, aspect, flow direction, basin); hillslope-link partition of the watershed. The slides of the class can be downloaded here 

2) Exercises: hands on a practical test case to apply all steps analyzed in the theoretical part. 

The test case can be downloaded here.
