National Modeling Seminar 20.11.2023 in Kallahti, Helsinki

How hydrology and modeling support green transition in the changing environment?

In the Nordic, water has been the invisible resource. It gains wider interest when becoming a problem for land-use activities, infrastructure, recreation, or ecosystem resilience. The change towards more sustainable use of Earth’s resources and resilient societies in changing climate requires a renewed focus on water.

We welcome you to the 2023 edition of the National Modeling Seminar series organized in collaboration with the Hydrology division of Water association Finland, universities, and research institutes. The seminar will focus on two broad themes:

  1. How process-based environmental models, data-driven approaches and new data streams can improve systemic thinking in hydrology?
  2. How hydrology and environmental modeling should support green transition?

Join the discussion by presenting recent work and sharing your ideas. Let’s make hydrology greater than ever!

Time: Mon 20.11.2023, 09:00 – 16:30.

Venue:  Cultural Centre and Conference Hotel Sofia (https://www.sofia.fi/en/), Kallvikinniementie 35, 00980 Helsinki.

The seminar is sponsored by Natural Resources Institute Finland (Luke), including lunch. We will have an informal seminar dinner for participants (at own cost, time and location to be announced later).

The first announcement

Welcome to the Nordic Hydrological Conference (NHC2020)!

The 31st Nordic Hydrological Conference will be held at Tallinn University, Tallinn, Estonia. The welcome reception, conference dinner and the walking tour will all take place in Tallinn. Tallinn University is located 500 metres from the UNESCO Heritage Site Tallinn Old Town and some hundred metres from the Baltic Sea as well as from one of the biggest urban recreational parks in Estonia – Kadriorg. 
 
The  main topic of NHC2020 is going to be “Hydrology and Water-related Ecosystems”. The conference will be an excellent opportunity for dissemination of scientific results and practical applications of hydrological research. Conference theme reflects the key challenges in contemporary hydrological knowledge, water management and corresponding decision-making in the world. Expected discussion topics will focus on relationships between water and ecosystem in different spatial and temporal scales; where are the ecological boundaries for preservation of water-related ecosystems and how are they reflected in the quantitative and qualitative indicators of water environment; and what are the benefits of those ecosystems? Also, discussions related to the development of operational policy at the regional and local level of land planning, planning of foreshore areas etc. are expected. See the main themes here. In Tallinn we will celebrate two special events – the 50th Year Anniversary of the Nordic Association for Hydrology and 100 Years of Hydrometeorological Service in Estonia. The usual three-day conference will be a day longer at this time, in order to accommodate special courses and workshops for early career researchers, but also a mini-conference for the local community, decision-makers and entrepreneurs. The first day of the conference is dedicated to the 100 years of Hydrometeorological Service in Estonia and will be held in Estonian language and it is open for all who are interested.

NATIONAL MODELLING SEMINAR 2019 – MODELLING FOR SOCIETAL AND INDUSTRIAL CHALLENGES

  • Time:  27.11.2019 9.00-17.00
  • Place: Kuopio, Technopolis, Microkatu 1, Piko -meeting room

Mathematical modelling has been proven to be established tools in tackling societal and industrial challenges and has seen significant advances, especially in terms of developing new methodologies, in the past decades. Impetuous to such developments was the need for providing innovative, cost-effective and sustainable solutions for natural and industrial problems, better management of natural resources and the environment, and long-term predictions and risk-based analysis in natural and engineered systems. Yet, the accurate applications of model-based tools in real-scale systems are severely complicated and their performance is hindered by many challenges including system complexity and heterogeneity, inadequate data and uncertainty, lack of process understanding, multi-scale coupling, and limitations in computational resources. Therefore, further research is essential to develop new tools and methodologies addressing these challenges.

National modelling seminar is a traditional annual symposium within the network of Finnish researchers, scientists, academics, PhD/MSc students, professionals, practitioners, and authorities particularly working with numerical models. The theme of this year’s seminar is “Modelling for societal and industrial challenges”, and particularly targets researchers, practitioners, and engineers willing to present their latest research and modelling results from different application areas and discuss the current state-of-the-art knowledge as well as future directions. We welcome abstracts from everyone working with numerical modelling focusing on different disciplines such as climate change, global processes, atmospheric, environmental and water resources, geoinformatics, forestry, mining and mineral processing, and other industrial applications.

We hope to see you in Kuopio!

  • Organizers: Geological survey of Finland, Water association Finland
  • Target group: Doctoral students, researchers and experts working with numerical modelling

Abstracts and registration:
• Abstracts should be submitted by 1st November (md.muniruzzaman@gtk.fi)
• Registration by 15th November (max amount of participants 100)
• The event is held in English and is free of charge

KANSALLINEN MALLINNUSSEMINAARI – NATIONAL MODELLING SEMINAR 11.12.2018

KANSALLINEN MALLINNUSSEMINAARI 11.12.2018

Kaupungit ja maaseutu – hule- ja luonnonvesien hallinta

Kaupunkien ja maaseutujen rakennetut ympäristöt tarvitsevat tehokasta vesienhallintaa. Uudet ratkaisut ja laskennalliset menetelmät tarjoavat työkaluja ja mahdollisuuksia kestävien, kustannustehokkaiden ja luonnonmukaisten ratkaisujen löytämiseen luonnon- ja hulevesissä. Muuttuvat olosuhteet haastavat perinteisten vesienhallintamenetelmien toimivuuden ja uusia ratkaisuja tarvitaan niin kansallisesti kuin kansainvälisestikin. Erityisesti kaupunkiympäristössä uusien menetelmien soveltamista hidastavat monet asiat, kuten epätarkat lähtöaineistot, mittausaineistojen puute, vajavaiset käyttökokemukset, mallinnusstandardien puute hulevesisuunnittelussa ja epävarmuus tulevaisuuden ilmaston vaikutuksista.

Kansallinen mallinnusseminaari on perinteeksi muodostunut tapahtuma, joka kokoaa yhteen vesialan käytännön, hallinnon ja tutkimuksen asiantuntijoita keskustelemaan ajankohtaisista teemoista ja tulevaisuuden näkymistä (http://mallinnusseminaari.fi/). Toivotamme kaikki ympäristön mallintamisen, seurannan, suunnittelun ja kunnostuksen parissa työskentelevät tervetulleeksi Viikkiin kuuntelemaan ja esittelemään teemaan liittyvää viimeisintä tutkimustietoa, käytännön kokemuksia, esimerkkejä ja kehitystarpeita!

Tänä vuonna tilaisuus järjestetään Suomen Ympäristökeskuksen uusissa tiloissa Viikissä. Tilaisuuden järjestämiseen osallistuvat Suomen Vesiyhdistyksen Hydrologian jaosto ja Hulevesijaosto


Urban and rural landscapes – management of stormwater runoff and natural waters

Urban and rural landscapes require efficient water management. Novel solutions and computational methods offer tools and opportunities for sustainable, cost efficient and nature-based solutions. However, changing conditions challenge function of traditional water protection methods and new solutions are urgently needed in both national and international scales. Especially, within urban landscapes, application of new methods is hindered by many challenges including inaccurate data sources, lack of measurements and common standards, together with uncertainty due to influences of climate change.

National modelling seminar is a traditional annual seminar, joining water researchers from the fields of practical water management, research and governance together to discuss from topical themes and future directions (http://mallinnusseminaari.fi/).
