HydroLand¶
HydroLand provides information on freshwater availability and hydrological extremes from Climate DT simulations. It takes precipitation and near-surface temperature as inputs and runs the mesoscale Hydrologic Model (mHM) together with the multiscale Routing Model (mRM). The simulated hydrological variables include soil water content, actual evapotranspiration, total runoff, and routed river discharge. From these, HydroLand also derives soil moisture indicators, an aridity index, and discharge indicators covering flood and drought conditions. The results can support climate adaptation questions related to water management, agriculture, and ecosystems.
How this section is organised¶
The HydroLand documentation is organised as follows:
Data Description describes the available output variables and indicators, units and conventions, spatial and temporal coverage, and file formats.
Data Quality and Evaluation summarises reference datasets and results, known gaps and caveats, version history, and the model-specific evaluation pages.
Examples lists typical applications and points to example material when it becomes available.
Technical Documentation provides the operational workflow, preprocessing, hydrological core, restart logic, indicator chain, and runtime components.
Related Resources collects related datasets, repositories, documentation, publications, references, and contact information.
