Assiniboine River Basin – Land use change impact assessment

The successful candidate for this position will spearhead a high-resolution modeling analysis of land-use change influences on the hydrologic characteristics of the Assiniboine River Basin, with specific focus on flood and drought resiliency. As part of the larger Assiniboine River Basin team at Aquanty......

HGS Parallelization - Best Practices

Fully-integrated hydrologic simulations, such as those performed with HydroGeoSphere, involve highly nonlinear processes, and thus the computational efficiency of the model becomes a critical issue for those performing hydrologic simulations. HGS was parallelized by Hwang et al., 2014 to over come this challenge.

The post summarizes how to setup a parallel HGS simulation, as well as some general best practices for running a parallel simulation.

HGS Research Highlight - Dual permeability modeling of tile drain management influences on hydrology and nutrient transport in macroporous soil

This post features a recent study by Frey et al., 2016 who used 2-dimensional dual permeability HydroGeoSphere models to simulate the flow and transport of liquid swine manure and rhodamine tracer application on a macroporous clay loam under controlled (CD) and free drainage (FD) tile management.

HGS Research Highlight - Coupled atmospheric, land surface, and subsurface modeling: Exploring water and energy feedbacks in three-dimensions

This post highlights the recent study by Davison et al. (2015) on the coupling of HGS to an Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) model. Implementing the coupled HGS-ABL model the authors found ...
