2.1. Please give a short description of the team work collaboration approach applied in your team (team management, communication and coordination, work plan, work distribution, ...) Our team consisted of 8 students from three different locations. The locations were as follows: Barcelona(3 students), Nice(3 students) and Manila/Cottbus(2 students). At the very beginning of the hydroweb project the FB messenger chat has been created which served as means for the purposes of the communication. Firstly, all students that have been assigned

After that I started to work on WP 1.4. That wasn’t so easy because this is the first time for me to encounter a software from hydrology domain. But eventually I’ve overcome the obstacles and got familiar with it. My specific part within WP 1 was to input three pumping stations and then to do the time series for them. I needed to take into account the amount of water that will be pumped out of each polder where the stations are positioned. That was the tricky part, but I distributed it throughout model’s time frame. After that I started to work with WP 2.3. To maintain the water level in the Tonder lake for the purposes of local community the weir needed to be installed. The task was to search for adequate chainage within branch surrounding the lake for the installation. In the network interface of the MIKE 11 inside of structures the weir has been configured. I had certain difficulties with simulation and with the generation of the flooding map after the …show more content…
After running step by step tutorial my opinion has softened a bit. I‘ve grasped a beginner’s level of the software, but since I am not from Water background some basic terminology/ processes were actually first on the learning list for me. MIKE 11 has a great potential ->innumerous possibilities, I am really impressed by the precision of the Software. I have been doubtful about trusting the results from simulations, but after usage of MIKE 11 this is no longer the case. My main disadvantage is a bit different interface than interfaces of the main operation systems running on the most of the computers, this interface hasn’t included a full potential of the right mouse click function, at least I am not in familiar with that. That’s why I’ve encountered a certain difficulties while trying to insert for instance pumping station, weir etc...This is just a different logics but when you are beginner it is a huge step. Some of the advantages I’ve already covered and beside that I want to add MIKE11 is a great tool for protection against results of disturbed climate in terms of more frequent hydrological events, that’s the part that myself personally is interested

    The Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR), interested in reducing the significant effort in maintain the two lakes levels through the seasons, droughts and heavy rains decide a new dam is required. Initially the lake level was to be reduced a substantial 18 cm to 198.38 m above sea level. Also no sluice for a 100 year flood and no consideration for the habitat downstream. With objections from cottagers and a new proposal was made by the MNR. 2009-2010…

    SaskWater has received a Request for Service from the Town of Birch Hills requesting a peak flow of 130 igpm. An assessment was performed includes two of SaskWater existing systems. Option #1 the Melfort Regional Treated System (CLPOWSS); three scenarios were considered while investigating the CLPOWSS. Scenario #1 connects the Birch Hills community with the CLPOWSS, plus twining 5.5 km of the existing pipeline between Melfort and Kinistino, which would allow for 100% of average daily consumption. Scenario #2 increases the length of twinned portion of the pipeline between Melfort and Weldon to 17.5 km to enable supplying Birch Hills with the requested 130 igpm.…

    If you are planting a large area of land or areas that are difficult to get to in conventional ways, hydroseeding can be very effective. This method of seeding combines seed and mulch (and sometimes fertilizer or other ingredients) with water to form a slurry, or mud-like mixture, which is then sprayed over prepared ground. Due to its many advantages, this hydroseeding has become preferred by many over more traditional options like broadcast seeding or sodding. However, unlike the other two, it is recommended to leave this particular application up to a professional.…

    Although the concept of Playpumps was idyllic in theory, its application was sabotaged by the strategy adopted by Playpumps International. Along with the technology, the focus was flawed: despite being a humanitarian project, there was greater emphasis on pleasing donors and meeting ambitious targets for glory, than supplying water to impoverished communities. It is important to understand that Playpumps are only one solution amongst a myriad of other water supply systems, and careful assessment is required to identify which combination of these solutions is appropriate for each individual community. Therefore, a change in priority and management is necessary to organise this project more effectively, in areas of administration, preparation, design, installation and maintenance. ADMINISTRATION:…
