Course Overview
The Catchment Science Summer School is a 5-day short course that is intended for post-graduate students and post-docs interested in a hands-on catchment science curriculum, focusing on northern catchments, runoff processes and combined hydrometric, isotope/chemical tracer and modeling techniques in catchment hydrology. The learning objectives for this short course are to understand:
- Rainfall-runoff processes
- Rainfall-runoff model development, use, and testing
- Hydrochemical and isotopic measurement and analyses
- Linking field experiments with modeling approaches
- Evolution of empirical and theoretical understanding of runoff processes
- Landscape analysis, land-use and climate change impacts on streamflow
