Themed Joint Session 24 Water Resources Applications of Hydrometeorological Analyses and Predictions Part II

Tuesday, 8 January 2013: 1:30 PM-3:00 PM
Room 10B (Austin Convention Center)
Hosts: (Joint between the 27th Conference on Hydrology; and the 29th Conference on Environmental Information Processing Technologies (formerly IIPS) )

We seek contributions from the research, operational and stakeholder or user communities on recent advances in science and practice of weather and climate analysis and prediction, hydrologic forecasting, and uncertainty-based approaches to support applications in water and watershed management. Water management concerns may include single or multi-sectoral efforts toward improving decisions regarding energy, flood or drought mitigation, agriculture, navigation and recreation, transboundary efforts or initiatives, and other resources management challenges. We welcome papers focusing on work across the spectrum of time (hourly to seasonal and interannual) and space scales (local to global), and presentations that highlight new theory, methods or findings from case studies.
