Application of a distributed hydrological model to the AWCI demonstration river basins
In order to tackle extreme events such as floods, reliable weather forecast is required to input into land surface models to make sound decisions. In Asia the countries affected by these events recognized the need to establish the Asian Water Cycle Initiative (AWCI). The objective is to promote integrated water resources management by making usable information from Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) to address the common water-related issues in Asia. Within this framework early successful results are achieved. For example, real-time flood management using quantitative precipitation forecast at mesoscale in Japan. Optimal dam operation was achieved maximizing the hydroelectricity production in The Philippines. Flood forecasting forced by meso-scale High Resolution Model in Vietnam. Flood simulation was obtained using corrected satellite rainfall data in Bangladesh. Optimal dam operation was achieved at Pampanga basin in The Philippines. The results might be useful as reference tools to the decision makers and contribute to societal benefits.
