  1. Lake Ecosystem Modelling working group Status update & Where to from here GLEON 10 in Brazil

  2. > 30 members

  3. LAKE WATER QUALITY MODEL ELCOM-CAEDYM (example):Estuary and Lake COmputer Model – Computational Aquatic Ecosystem DYnamics ModelDeveloped at the Centre for Water Research, University of Western Australia CATCHMENT MODEL SWAT: Soil and Water Assessment Tool Developed at the Grassland, Soil and Water Research Laboratory , Texas A&M University • Input: • Meteorology (dailyorhourlyaverages) • - Precipitation • - Solar radiation • - Air temperature • - Wind speed • - Relative humidity • - (cloud cover) • Morphology • Inflowvolumes and nutrientconcentrations • Outflowvolumes • Output: • physicaldynamics • - waterlevel • - temperature distribution • - circulation/mixingpatterns (velocityfields) • waterquality (flexible) • - dissolved oxygen and nutrientconcentrations • - phytoplanktonbiomass • - zooplanktonbiomass etc. etc… • Input: • Meteorology (dailyaverages) • - Precipitation • - Solar radiation • - Air temperature • - Wind speed • - Relative humidity • Topography, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) • Land use, land/croppingpractises, point sources • Soil types • Stream (and lake) networks • Output: • stream flow • nutrientconcentrations in streams (and lakes)

  4. Action items after GLEON 10….

  5. Workshop on Lake Ecosystem ModellingSilkeborg, Denmark20-22 September 2010

  6. Lake Ecosystem Modelling working group • GLEON 11 – Nanjing, China • - Background and introduction to the new modelling network • - How do we want to operate and transfer knowledge between networks? • Distinction between model developers & users group within GLEON? • Coupling/integration with other GLEON working groups? • Delivering and continuing on actions items discussed at GLEON 10
