| Zusammenfassung |
| Integrated hydrologic models are growing in application and show significant promise in unraveling connections between the surface, subsurface, land-surface and lower atmospheric systems. Recent advances in numerical methods, coupled formulation and computing power have all enabled these simulation advances. The modeling platform ParFlow, an integrated hydrologic model that has been coupled to land surface and atmospheric models will be presented along with a recent application of this model to a large, Continental-Scale domain in North America at high resolution that encompasses both the Mississippi and Colorado watersheds. Details will include techniques for model setup and initialization, in addition to results that focus on understanding fluxes, feedbacks and systems dynamics. Additional anthropogenic complications such as the effects of pumping, irrigation and urbanization will be discussed and a path forward for integrated simulations of the hydrologic cycle will be presented. |
