This training workshop will provide graduate students and early career scientists with formal instruction on the structure and application of the WRF-Hydro system and will offer hands-on experience in setting up and running the system for several different research and prediction applications. Preference will be given to applicants in the Academic and Nonprofit sectors.

Topics to be covered during the workshop include but are not limited to:

Conceptualization and structure of the WRF-Hydro system
Description of physics components and options within WRF-Hydro
Model porting and compilation, and an overview of parallel computing with WRF-Hydro
Hands-on model input data preparation and creation of an example test case
Hands-on model configuration and execution
Hands-on experimental model simulations and comparisons with a prepared example test case
Hands-on example WRF & WRF-Hydro model coupled simulation
Overview of the open source Rwrfhydro hydrologic model evaluation package with example vignettes
Overview of model calibration
Open discussion on class participant interests and applications

Class participants will receive in-depth training via lectures and hands-on activities on the implementation and use of the WRF-Hydro Modeling System where all hands-on tutorial activities will be conducted in a formal computer laboratory located at NCAR in Boulder, CO.
