The Water Evaluation And Planning (WEAP) software system is a practical tool for water resources planning offering an integrated approach to water development, that could be applied to many regions worldwide that face formidable freshwater management challenges, such as allocation of limited water resources, environmental quality and policies for sustainable water use, especially where conventional supply-oriented simulation models are not always adequate (SEI, 2011).  The Stockholm Environment Institute provided primary support for the development of WEAP. The Hydrologic Engineering Center of the US Army Corps of Engineers funded significant enhancements. A few agencies, including the World Bank, USAID and the Global ... Read More

In the present work, the proposed CoastFLOOD module for the simulation of extended coastal inundation due to storm surges is based on the classic “raster-based storage cell” concept, structure and numerical approach of the well-established LISFLOOD-FP model (Bates & De Roo, 2000; Bates et al., 2005; 2010; 2013; Seenath et al., 2016). In our case the sea level elevation on the shoreline of the coastal zone interacts with the coastal floodplain via a Manning-type flow equation in 2-D formulation, allowing seawater to inundate and freely return flow between adjacent computational cells of the grid representing the floodplain terrain. The CoastFLOOD module ... Read More

The Mediterranean Climate Storm Surge (MeCSS) model (Androulidakis et al., 2015; Makris et al., 2015) is based on the HiReSS (High Resolution Storm Surge) model (Makris et al., 2019). It is a two-dimensional horizontal hydrodynamic model that solves the depth-averaged shallow water equations for the barotropic mode of circulation (De Vries et al., 1995; Krestenitis et al., 2011) and is used to calculate the sea level variations and depth-integrated currents for the entire Mediterranean basin on a 1/10°×1/10° horizontal grid (Trifonova et al., 2012; Villatoro et al., 2014; Androulidakis et al., 2015; Makris et al., 2015; 2016; 2018). The atmospheric ... Read More

The spatially distributed hydrologic model MODSUR (“modélisation des transferts de surface”) is the surface modelling component of the coupled surface and groundwater MODCOU “modélisation couplée”) simulation model, which was developed at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Paris (Ledoux et al., 1989). The MODSUR model has successfully represented surface flow in many basins of varying scales, e.g. the Seine and Rhone basins in France, the Maritza basin in Bulgaria, and hydrogeological settings (Golaz et al., 2001; Habets et al., 1999a). It has also been coupled with atmospheric and agricultural models. The NEIGE component of the MODSUR-NEIGE model simulates the ... Read More
