HydroData Chronicles: Unveiling EStreams – A Comprehensive Hydro-Climatic Dataset for Europe

We’re back to the HydroData Chronicles, where we enter into the exceptionally wonderful world—as massive as it is—of datasets about water phenomena, such as rivers and weather. Today, we focus on ΕStreams, a comprehensive dataset and catalogue of streamflow, hydro-climatic, and landscape data for Europe. This pioneering initiative fills the hydrological data availability gap, offering an inv ...[Read More]

How do you ensure quality in your flow modeling? Participate in a survey!

The challenges in hydraulic engineering are increasing due to the growing threat of floods and heavy rainfall events caused by climate change (as experienced several times in Europe in recent years) on the one hand and the more frequent low water situations and the associated requirements for ecological enhancement of water bodies, on the other hand. In this context, reliable estimates of the hydr ...[Read More]
