| Summary: | The city of Picos and the Rio Guaribas Basin in the State of Piauí/Brazil is one
of the focus areas within the international WAVES-program. With the investigation in focus
areas on meso- and microscale level the statewide, macroscale WAVES-models are
evaluated and calibrated. The description and modeling of different water flows in the Rio
Guaribas Basin is performed by combining different models or working tools for each water
compartment, so-called different modules within the WARIG-concept (WARIG- Modeling of
Water Availability and Quality in Rio Guaribas Basin). In addition, the description of the
actual water budget and the simulation of future water budgets support the regional development
of the investigation area. Further on, results will be up-scaled and transferred to
other areas with less data density. |
