BioEarth Meeting

Naomi Tague and Elizabeth Garcia are attending the BioEarth Stakeholder meeting at the University of Washington in Pullman, Washington, this week. RHESSys is one of the models integrated into the BioEarth framework with the goal of creating a regional modeling framework for the Pacific Northwest to improve understanding of the interactions among carbon, nitrogen, andContinue reading “BioEarth Meeting”

Watershed Science Masterclass

Naomi Tague was part of a team with Jeff McDonnell (University of Saskatchewan), Peter Troch (University of Arizona), and Richard Hooper (executive directory of CUAHSU), who taught this week-long course focusing on hydrologic and biogeochemical watershed processes, including theory, experimental design, and modeling. Dr. Tague taught about cutting edge concepts in hydrologic modeling, including innovativeContinue reading “Watershed Science Masterclass”

RHESSys Hackathon!

A collaborative effort including software engineers, scientists, and researchers to improve RHESSys functionality and usability. Participants in the hackathon included researchers from RENCI (Renaissance Computing Institute), the Institute for the Environment at UNC Chapel Hill, WSSI collaborators from the National Socio-Environmental Synthesis Center (SESYNC) at the University of Maryland and the National Center for SupercomputingContinue reading “RHESSys Hackathon!”

Japan-US Watershed Hydrology and Forest Biogeochemistry: Comparing Data, Theory and Models

Japan-US Watershed Hydrology and Forest Biogeochemistry Tague contributes to this international working group – looking at how RHESSys might be useful for synthesizing spatial dense measurements of forest thinning effects on nitrogen cycling and water – and thinking about how emerging isotopic data from streams and groundwater wells can be used to improve RHESSys representationContinue reading “Japan-US Watershed Hydrology and Forest Biogeochemistry: Comparing Data, Theory and Models”
