Workshop agenda (provisional)

1. Status, implementation, improvements and demonstration of the:
   • HROI flowline (TN, 1/2 hour) - BASAT data.
   • MROI flowline (SV, 1/2 hour) - BASCH data.
   • SAR (SWSM) flowline (TN/RC, 1/2 hour) - BASAT data. This should cover both
   • separate and combined asc/desc pass processing.
2. Application of the flowlines to BASSW and BASUK data (RC/OT, 1 hour).
3. Inputting EO products into the hydrolgical models (, 1 hour).

Detailed agenda for HYDALP hydrology session, 15 June, 9-12.30, Geog dept, Sheffield.

1. Exchange of SRM experience: calibration problems, runoff corrections in relation to choice of met input data, progress with simulations (GG/HK, 1/4 hour).
2. Exchange of HBV experience (as for #1) (OT/BJ/GG, 1/4 hour).
3. Implications of WP 430 findings (CC, 1/2 hour).
4. Discussion of HBV updating in WP441 (with demonstration preferably) (BJ, 1/2 hour).
5. Discussion of WP 442 SCA interpolation: methods of SCA interpolation, intercomparison of results (GG/HK, 1/2 hour).
6. Discussion of WP 442 seasonal variation in DDF/albedo (GG, 1/2 hour).
7. Technical issues anticipated for runoff forecasts: quality of meteorological forecasts, data management (automated update of model files), extrapolation of SCA (GG/HK/BJ, 1/2 hour).
8. Papers and conferences (RF, 1/4 hour).
9. . Other: SRM-Java (current status and future plans), Spatial Snow Model Switzerland (HK, 1/4 hour).

We intend holding the EO session in the Geography department image processing lab where several networked workstations running PCI and ERDAS are available.

Topics for the joint integration session (chair SQ) in the afternoon (1330-1630) include:

1. Synopsis of EO session (RC, 1/4 hour)
2. Synopsis of modellers session (RF, 1/4 hour)
3. Status, implementation, improvements and demonstration of the
4. 'General flowline' (GG\TN, 1/2 hour)
5. Inputting EO products into SRM (HK\SV, 1/2 hour)
6. Inputting EO products into HBV (BJ\OT, 1/2 hour)
7. Discussion and delegation of actions arising (SQ, 1 hour).
