1 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September 009 Drought Monitoring with Hydrological Modelling Stefan Niemeyer IES - Institute for Environment and Sustainability Ispra - Italy
2 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September 009 Why Modelling? (Hydrological) models simulations confirm/reject assumptions of the (hydrological) system if proved to be valuable, the selected aspects of reality can be reproduced in the chosen spatial and temporal resolution information without detailed observation / measurement of the variables of interest! potential for future simulations, forecasting, etc. drawback: Calibration & Validation!
3 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September 009 Hydrological Models = representation of the hydrological cycle precipitation (rain / snow) partition on land surface into interception, direct runoff, and infiltration (soil) evaporation, transpiration from vegetation soil water balance, soil moisture (vertical flow, lateral?) groundwater storage (and flow) runoff production (surface runoff, interflow, base flow, ) hydraulic routing in the river bed
4 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September 009 Hydrological Models spatial scale and resolution spatial reference is the river catchment area typically regional application (some 000 km ) depending on model type, the region of study is divided into smaller homogeneous areas polygons or regular grids grid spatial resolution typically from 00 m to -5 km
5 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September Hydrological Models temporal scale and resolution simulation of days to years and decades temporal resolution depending on application: hourly to 6- hourly for flood modelling daily to monthly for water balance estimation
6 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September Hydrological Models type of models: physically based: process oriented, highly parameterized statistical models: based on statistics rather than physics lumped models: low spatial differentiation, average values for large areas distributed models: high spatial differentiation, high resolution input data required
7 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September Hydrological versus Atmospheric Models atmospheric processes <> hydrological processes several levels in atmosphere <> surface meteorology only land surface, soil in one layer <> many vegetation and soil layers high temporal resolution (hours) <> typically daily temporal resolution low spatial resolution (50+km) <> typically km spatial resolution never local, regional, often global <> local / regional / catchment turbulent flux densities of latent heat <> evapotranspiration (mm) But: Both models types extend increasingly into the other domain. Future: coupled models! For Global Circulation Models (GCM) link to water balance models For Regional Climate Models (RCM) link to rainfall-runoff models requires collaboration of two traditionally separated scientific communities!
8 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September Hydrological Model at JRC LISFLOOD a hydrological rainfall-runoff model capable of simulating the hydrological processes in a catchment developed by the FLOODS Action of IES/JRC specific objective to produce a tool for use in large and transnational catchments for a variety of applications, including: Flood forecasting Assessing the effects of river regulation measures Assessing the effects of land-use change Assessing the effects of climate change

Geophys. Res.,, D76, 009
16 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September LISFLOOD calibration 8 parameters controlling: infiltration, snowmelt, overland and river flow, residence times in the soil and subsurface reservoirs estimated in catchments by calibrating the model against historical records of river discharge at least years between 995 and 00 For catchments without discharge measurements simple regionalization techniques (regional averages) were applied to obtain the parameters

43 st Joint EARS/JRC International Drought Workshop, Ljubljana,.-5. September 009 Outlook implement best-calibrated version of LISFLOOD with focus on soil moisture estimates look for alternative land surface schemes that include processes missing in LISFLOOD, but relevant for droughts (e.g. capillary rise) first pilot study on comparison of LS models: changing requirements, now also towards global applications additional drought information derived e.g. from ET estimates (EF?) resulting in the recommendation of the Community Land Model CLM.0 ( increasing availability of RS products on soil moisture ERS/Metop (Eumetsat SAF), SMOS (ESA 009), SMAP (NASA 0) further comparison and verification, data assimilation?
