The CAPES/PROEX PPGSHS EESC/USP, in association with Federal University of Pernambuco and Federal University of Campina Grande, will host the CAPES School of Advanced Studies of Water & Societies under Change at the CETISC Amphitheatre (USP São Carlos)
SCHOOL OF ADVANCED STUDIES OF WATER AND
SOCIETIES UNDER CHANGE – MODELLING AND MEASURING
HYDROLOGIC SYSTEMS
Prof. Dr. Dimitri Solomatine
IHE Delft Institute for Water Education, the Netherlands
Context: The School of Advanced Studies of Water & Society under Change is divided into six different modules, which share same objectives of other running projects developed by local and international institutions. Every visiting professor, from national and foreign institutions, were allocated according to their experiences at their home institutions and recent published articles in journals. For the module “Modelling and Measuring Hydrologic Systems” the EESC-USP will receive professors from foreign institutions in order to share experiences about recent advances in the research field of hydrological modelling. The invited professors in this section have published several articles that they analyse how hydrologic systems and social aspects interacts among themselves. During Prof. Solomatine course, the students will be introduced to modelling theory and model uncertainty, fundamentals of data-driven modelling, and various applications of artificial (computational) intelligence techniques to water-related problems.
Short Bio: Prof. Dimitri Solomatine is the head of the Hydroinformatics Chair group. His research interests include hydroinformatics, integration of models and remote sensing data, modelling, optimization, systems engineering, analysis of models uncertainty, computational intelligence, internet-based computing and decision support. He is an associate editor of the Journal of Hydroinformatics and of the Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, serves on the International Scientific Committee of all hydroinformatics conferences since 1994. He is the co-founder and chairman of the sub-division on Hydroinformatics of the European Geosciences Union. More information: [ Ссылка ].
