Nice to test our newest aqua-audio-tour: voicemap.me/tour/reichen...

Uppdating one of the CrowdWater in Paris - a nice practical addition to my talk about CrowdWater at the Ozcar-Tereno conference.

Rain-on-snow events in mountainous catchments under climate change Abstract. The frequency and intensity of rain-on-snow (RoS) events are expected to change in response to climate variations due to changes in precipitation, increases in air temperature, and subsequen...

Want do know about current status and future of rain-on-snow runoff events in central European mountain catchments? Check our new paper led by Ondřej Hotový from @sciencecharles.bsky.social at hess.copernicus.org/articles/29/.... Big thanks also to @jansei.bsky.social for great collaboration.

Ilja van Meerveld and me presenting CrowdWater at the Birmingham Sumer School

Ilja van Meerveld starting day 3 of the catchment science summer school in Birmingham. Looking forward to a day with runoff generation, hbv and CrowdWater.

Nice to pre-start the 16. Catchment Science Summer School at @unibirmingham.bsky.social with a round of discgolf with @davidhannah.bsky.social, Stefan, Jeff, Ellie and Luise

The role of snowmelt, glacier melt and rainfall in streamflow dynamics on James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula Abstract. The Antarctic Peninsula is experiencing a rapid increase in air temperature, which has a major impact on the entire ecosystem, including the runoff process. Understanding the water balance d...

Cool to see that our HBV model software now has been used to simulate runoff on all continents 😀 tc.copernicus.org/articles/19/...

What a hydrological day, first the successful PhD defense by Rick Assendelft, then the Seeüberquerung (www.seeueberquerung.ch)

Interactive Learning in Hydrological Modelling With a Web‐Based Tool We introduce a web-based tool to explore hydrological modeling in classrooms. The app can be run in any internet browser on a variety of devices. The app and code are available for free. We include m...

Teach hydro modeling? Want to introduce modeling in an intro class?

Check out this web-app, activities, and code (in case you want to spin off your own)..

Thanks @jansei.bsky.social for working with me on this, which was inspired by his HBV-lite teaching software!

Glad midsommar 🥳🇸🇪😀

More importantly, would you recommend reading it?

Value of water level class observations for parameter set selection in hydrological modelling Finding suitable parameter sets for a hydrological model usually requires several years of discharge data. As these data are often unavailable, it can be challenging to use hydrological models. It ...

Perfect reading for the weekend: new paper by Franziska Clerc-Schwarzenbach et al. on the value of water level observations collected by the public in the CrowdWater project: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Hydrology Paper of the Day @jansei.bsky.social on hydrological processes associated with reforestation and how sociological notions of these processes differ from known phenomena and changes in streamflow: reforestation may not always increase flow, and a review of experiments and change.

Nice to run through three countries on the half marathon in Basel today together with my son

Evaluating model performance: towards a non-parametric variant of the Kling-Gupta efficiency Goodness-of-fit measures are important for an objective evaluation of runoff model performance. The Kling-Gupta efficiency (RKG), which has been introduced as an improvement of the widely used Nash...

On the train back to Zürich after an amazing week in Vienna with @egu.eu and @hs.egu.eu. Great presentations by people from our group and others,so many inspirations and much interest in CrowdWater

Nice poster indeed, I enjoyed it :-)

Four awards to our research group on one day - my scientific life won't get much better than that. Congrats to Franziska Clerc-Schwarzenbach, Sarah Hanus and Mirjam Scheller, and thanks to @egu.eu and @hs.egu.eu

Celebrating world water day with filming at the Sihl

Running along the Lech with Maria and Franziska - a great way to start a the day at the Tag der Hydrologie conference in Augsburg (of course, we updated the local CrowdWater spot)

Never miss an opportunity to talk about CrowdWater 😀 great event related to World Water Day at the ZKSD in Zurich together with @danielviviroli.bsky.social and Sarah Hanus 💦
