Zusammenfassung |
Landscapes act as nonlinear space and time filters within the hydrological cycle. Human activities exert global scale impacts on this landscape with significant regional implications for both freshwater‐driven services and hazards for people and nature. A long term initiative in hydrology will have to advance our scientific understanding and our predictive capability in the context of this evolution. What role can a decadal initiative play in supporting the necessary long-term scientific advancement in the context of a changing world? What elements does such an initiative need to be successful given what we learned from PUB? In this talk I will start at the end of the current decadal initiative and take the long view of how hydrology might evolve. Through this scenario analysis I will identify knowledge gaps and hence needed scientific advancements. |
