modelling

The Catchment Management Modelling Platform (CaMMP) which was launched on 9 March 2017 at an event hosted by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) in London.

The UK’s rivers, due to the variability of our climate from year to year and associated extreme weather events, are prone to flooding and periods of drought and water scarcity. Making robust predictions of these impacts is critical to developing effective planning and management of our precious water resources both for now and in the future.

The UK Groundwater Modellers’ Forum (GWMF) is organising a meeting which combines the 14th GWMF workshop and the National Ground Water Research and Educational Foundation (NGWREF)’s Darcy lecture.

A large number of regional and local scale groundwater models exist in the UK and increasingly, these are being adapted for application beyond the purpose, scale or time frame for which they were originally intended.

A number of talks will consider recent examples of repurposed models being used by the wider UK community.
