Lehrinhalt

This course goes above and beyond the introductory and mid-level hydrological courses. It covers recent developments and advances in the field of hydrology and integrated water resources management. The course covers different topics. Potential topics cover (but are not limited to) "the potential of artificial intelligence in hydrology and water management", "predictions in ungauged basins", "novel hyrological measurement techniques", and "advanced methods in hydrological modelling".

Short introductions will be provided by the lecturers on selected topics at the beginning of the course. Based on the individual interests of registered M.Sc. and PhD students, participants will chose one topic from a pool of research themes to study in detail, present and discuss them in class and write a short term paper.
