Course Overview

An approach linked with research is privileged in this in-depth module.
It is divided into three parts:
# Meteorology and climatology.
# Geostatistics and spatial data;
# Forecast and management of water resources in a non stationary context.

A short-project in the module called "Engineering of hydraulic structure" III will allow to link the three areas teached in this module.

Learning Achievement

To be able to produce regionalized (spatial) data, e.g. on a watershed, using several methods.
To understand notions of meteorology (general circulation, thermodynamics, perecipitation) and climatology (climate model, climate change scenario) required for hydrological forecasting.
To be aware of the need to take into account non stationarities (climate or change in land use) in long-term hydrological forecasting and management of water resources.
To be able to apply new methodologies for hydrological forecasting at several lags.
