H23F:
Multiscale Dependency and Uncertainty in Modeling of Surface and Subsurface Environments Posters


Session ID#: 9796

Session Description:
Effective identification and modeling of hydrologic and biogeochemical systems requires scale-appropriate representations of the underlying processes. One challenge is that such processes occur at a range of spatiotemporal scales, which may be inconsistent with the scales of application/model and available data (observations). For example, macroscopic models sometimes fail to adequately describe small-scale processes. This session invites contributions that address issues of scale and multiscale modeling, including (1) identification and representation of dominant surface processes across a range of scales (e.g., hillslope to watershed systems), (2) hybrid methods for coupling models at different scales and/or space-time resolutions (e.g., pore and continuum scales) in different parts of computational domains; (3) upscaling and downscaling strategies and transferability of parameters, state variables, observations, etc. across scales, (4) quantification and reduction of uncertainties across processes and scales, through data-model integration. Both surface and subsurface applications in hydrology and/or biogeochemistry are welcome.
