Description |
This module will deal with a presentation of fundamental analysis and design methods required to understand hydrology and hydrogeology in diverse areas (rural, urban, hill, plain and floodplain). It will provide an overview of modern instrumentation with field practices. It will address the hydrological database management and an introduction to the modelling approach for ecological engineering under SWAT environment. It will focus on eco-hydrology and ecological engineering. |

Assessment Tool This module will deal with a learning school of SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model (http://swat.tamu.edu/), which is a large used hydrological model that aims to simulate environmental scenarios contributing to water cycle and matter fluxes at the scale of watershed including diverse areas (rural, urban, hill, plain and floodplain).
