A Multi‐Resolution Deep‐Learning Surrogate Framework for Global Hydrological Models We introduce a framework for the development of multi-resolution deep-learning global hydrological surrogates To test our framework, we develop and evaluate a surrogate for the PCRaster Global Wa...

Global Hydrological Models are difficult to calibrate due to computational costs and regionalisation issues. Droppers, @waterbier.bsky.social and Wanders developed a deep learning surrogate model of their global hydrology and water resources model.

Geen idee over temperatuur van grondwater. Maar lijkt mij logisch als gemiddelde jaartemperatuur stijgt.

Zou het echt zo eenvoudig kunnen zijn? Mischien wel.

Marc Bierkens interim Dean Geosciences The Executive Board of Utrecht University has appointed Prof. Marc Bierkens as the new interim Dean of the Faculty of Geosciences as of 1 March 2025.

A new, albeit temporary, challenge: www.uu.nl/en/news/marc...

Unravelling groundwater–stream connections over the continental United States - Nature Water Using a backward-particle-tracking simulation across the contiguous United States, this study quantifies the distance and depth of the groundwater entering a stream and highlights the strong connectio...

How long are flowpaths from recharge through groundwater to streams? How connected are watersheds over the CONUS? tldr; much longer and way more connected than we thought. New paper in @naturewaterjnl.bsky.social with Chen Yang and Laura Condon

📢 New publication alert!

A first attempt to model global hydrology at hyper-resolution (~1km).

First paper in his PhD project by @barryvanjaarsveld.bsky.social

Likewise Thomas! Thanks for being at the event!

Looking back at a great @agu.org 2024 meeting. With the intro of the World Water Map: Insights livingatlas.arcgis.com/wwm-insights/ @uugeo.bsky.social

Hello AGU 2024!

National Geographic Society, Utrecht University and Esri Launch ‘World Water Map: Insights’ World Water Map: Insights is an enhanced version of the World Water Map, providing expanded datasets and improved visualization tools for policymakers, water sector professionals and data storytellers

The National Geographic World Water Map: Insights has been launched this week. www.uu.nl/en/news/nati...

If you are @AGU2024 visit us on Wednesday 11 between 11:30-12:30 at the Marriot Marquiis 3-4. @uugeo.bsky.social @nationalgeographic.bsky.social

De Watergroepen van Fysische Geografie van Universiteit Utrecht zijn bijeengekomen om een jaar van hard onderzoek en onderwijs te vieren. Een geweldige boel! En erg gezellig!

The Earth System Boundary framework: a powerful concept to gauge stability of the Earth system.

The application to regional-scale groundwater systems and use remains a challenge!

Alarm slaan of beter bewijs zoeken: de wetenschappelijke strijd achter kantelpunten in het klimaat Klimaatverandering die ons over het randje van de afgrond duwt: over zulke ‘kantelpunten’ woedt een grote wetenschappelijke strijd. De ene kant zegt dat de risico’s te groot zijn om geen alarm te slaa...
