  1. CYBEROBSERVATORY FOR SUPPORTING SCIENCE, MANAGEMENT, AND PUBLIC WARNING: INTERNATIONAL CASE STUDIES Marian Muste Mary-Jeanne Adler Radu Drobot Mariana Mocanu

  2. Motivation • water is a vital and critical resource • uses of water significantly alter water-quantity and -quality processes in water-cycle systems at the local and regional scales • capabilities of information and communication technology

  3. Features of the watershed science and management information systems • implemented at the natural unit scale • consideration of all water cycle fluxes: vertical and horizontal and their interactions with ecological and socio-economical aspects • extensive datasets obtained through monitoring, modeling, and post-processing, multi-task analysis and visualization • near-real time operation of the investigative/ management platforms • tools for knowledge discovery, dissemination, collaboration/ participation • feed-back loops for observatory/monitoring operations, quality control, and application of adaptive strategies

  4. Approach in the USA • Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science, Inc. (CUAHSI) • leads the efforts for improving the infrastructure and methodologies for integrated water-centric studies • promotes alliances among U.S. and foreign universities so as to develop and implement cyberinfrastructure-based environmental observatories for examining watersheds.

  5. Cyberinfrastructure (CI) • a network of observing stations or interacting scientific activities across time and space • distributed data collection, • management, • and operation • an emerging framework for supporting watershed science

  6. Cyber-observatory: components and functions Primary role • to enable hypothesis testing at full scale • to verify pilot-study findings through observations at larges scales in comparable settings their extent is typically the size of the small river basins covering urban and agricultural areas corresponding to 5th order watersheds

  7. Observatories enable cross-disciplinary process discovery and understanding • observation, • simulation, • analysis, • and knowledge synthesis. contain experimental facilities

  8. CI - structure

  9. Clear Creek Pilot Observatory

  10. Clear Creek Pilot Observatory • Representation of precipitation estimates using NEXRAD measurements representation of the radar cells

  11. Clear Creek Pilot Observatory real-time maps of the NEXRAD estimated precipitation in Clear Creek obtained with customized CUAHSI’s ODM

  12. Clear Creek Pilot Observatory • Data assimilation in numerical simulations and information representation

  14. National Flood Decision Support System in Romania Main functions: • data flow & operational messages/reports surveillance & control • framework for specific applications and studies

  15. DispecerApe • data acquisition follows the up-ward sense

  16. DispecerApe • forecasted data follow the reverse sense

  17. Romanian National Information Network

  18. Outlook • the gap between theory and action • the recent technological advances • rigorous development of comprehensive integrated information systems • modern integrative watershed science and management approaches The future of watershed science, engineering, and management of water resources depends on this integrationeffort

  19. Thank you for your attention!
