H43A:
Addressing the Challenges of Big and Complex Data to Advance Hydrologic Understanding II Posters


Session ID#: 9152

Session Description:
Hydrologic research increasingly involves the use of large and diverse datasets composed of information integrated from multiple sources, which is intrinsically computationally intensive and requires teamwork and collaboration.  Cyberinfrastructure is being developed to address many challenges including the management of big data, software and modeling services, and community platforms to support collaboration. This session solicits papers on the design and development of cyberinfrastructure in the hydrologic science and engineering communities.  This includes topics dealing with the scientific and engineering applications of these systems to improve our understanding of water in the coupled human and earth system, as well as water resources management.  Appropriate topics include flood and drought management, earth system and ecosystem models, and emergency response or citizen engagement in water resource issues.
