This grant, offered by the US Geological Survey (USGS) through its Water Mission Area (WMA), is for a CESU-affiliated partner. Its primary purpose is to significantly advance physically based hydrologic modeling capabilities, particularly focusing on large-scale hydrologic simulators. A crucial objective is also to progress the development of sophisticated machine learning emulators that can accurately mimic these complex models. This initiative aims to enhance the USGS’s capacity in water resource management by improving predictive tools for national and regional river basin modeling efforts. The work will contribute directly to critical hydrological research and applications.
