Modelling Hydrology and Global Change

This 5-day online school  will help you to develop a sense of the underpinning principles of modelling hydrological systems at large catchment, continental, and global scales. The course is delivered over five full days hosting up to 30 students.

Target Audience

The aim is to train undergraduate, post-graduate, early-career and other international junior scientists from the fields of water and the environment, land surface science, water resources, ecology, hydrometeorology, biogeochemistry and other related research areas concerned with the delivery of next-generation land-surface and hydrological predictions.

Course Objectives

You will learn the technical skills to run JULES and standalone Hydro-JULES tools in order to investigate hydrological processes under current and future scenarios, understand how to use the technical features built in Hydro-JULES for collaboration in scientific projects. 

You will participate in practical workshops in small groups, attend virtual fieldtrips, listen to keynote talks from our Hydro-JULES scientists and take part in our expert panel discussions and mentoring sessions using an on-line platform.

Learning Outcome

By the end of the school, you will have gained sufficient knowledge of modelling hydrological systems to apply this to your own projects.

Hardware / Software Requirements

You will need a laptop or desktop computer. 

Applicants MUST have an affiliated email address (i.e. not gmail/hotmail/etc.), be able to access a UNIX- or Linux-based system eligible for JASMIN access and have access to a video-calling system with sufficient bandwidth to maintain a Zoom/Skype/Microsoft Teams/ call (e.g. 2.0 Mbps upload and download).

Applications to the Hydro-JULES Summer School programme 2024

The Hydro-Jules summer school will take place from the 8 - 12 July 2024. Applications to the summer school programme will open shortly.

"Online meetings provide many opportunities for the students, especially those who can't afford to pay the living cost and travel fee to UK when attending the course physically. I did enjoy this training very much, it provides helps me in academic networking with many experienced researchers from UK. The training sessions are also very useful for young researchers to develop new skills and knowledge. Hoping there will be more opportunity for the students to join variety of workshop conducted by the team. Thank you!"

“I really liked the use of Gather.town as it gives the feeling of having space like in an in-person workshop".

"I am sending this email to you to say thanks for successfully arranging the Hydro-JULES School. I really learned a lot from the keynote talks. All the topics which are discussed in schools are very informative. As you also provide an opportunity to talk with the experts was a wonderful experience. I am also thankful to all experts who gave the lectures. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a place in the winter school but thanks to the given opportunity to listen to the talks. I also got access to some of the virtual workshop's videos which are also informative".
