Climate change makes long-term planning even more challenging, adding significant risk in using historical data to plan for the future. Most existing hydrologic models are not well suited to integrate dynamic basin and climatic change because of underlying assumptions about the relationship between inputs (temperature, rainfall) and output (streamflow).
In contrast, HydroForecast learns underlying hydrologic relationships by studying a diverse set of basins, enabling accurate predictions even as conditions change. Coupled with best-in-class climate models, HydroForecast has the capability to predict hydrologic scenarios out to 2100.
