Invitation : 5th International HydroGeoSphere User Conference (UL, 8-11 juin 2020)

The 5th International HydroGeoSphere User Conference (June 8-11, 2020)

Université Laval, Québec, QC Canada

====

Over the last decade, integrated surface-subsurface hydrological models have been increasingly used to simulate and quantify fluid flow and mass transport. A variety of numerical codes, such as HydroGeoSphere (HGS), MIKE-SHE, OpenGeosys (OGS), Parflow and others, have been created to address problems ranging from point to continental scales.

Building upon a series of previous HGS user conferences in Liège, Hannover, Neuchatel and Bayreuth, the fifth HGS user conference will be hosted by Laval University, Canada from the 8th-11th of June, 2020. The conference is entitled “HydroGeoSphere: Fully-Integrated Simulation of Coupled Surface and Subsurface Flow and Transport Processes” and will focus on the latest research and developments in the fully-integrated simulation of hydrologic systems from the HGS user community and beyond.

The objectives of the conference are to:

• Learn about the latest research topics and share experiences in the field of fully-integrated hydrologic simulation.
• Present research activities related to the use of integrated model.
• Exchange ideas and coordinate future research activities
• Meet the HGS developers, and get informed on the latest changes and future directions
• Improve the communication between users and developers of integrated models

A one-day workshop on the use of HGS for hydrologic modelling will be held on the final day of the conference.
