It was a really helpful course. I am a Civil Engineering graduate, and I studied Climate change and hydrology in my Undergraduate studies, this course enhanced my knowledge about these topics. I would love to study more such courses.
-
This is quite a relevance course given today's weather patterns. We see how climate change affects the availability of fresh water to harness into potable water for the domestic supply. Great course.

This experience was very effective for me because I am now working on climate change and its impact on water quality and human health.

Climate change is causing rapid changes on hydrological events. Many authors have recently utilized the results of the Global Climate Models (GCMs), which are the most complex coupled numerical models for forecasting the general circulation of the earth's atmosphere. There is a plethora of research on the CMIP6-based GCMs' capacity to represent the physical processes of the terrestrial atmosphere. Simulations from many GCMs have already been utilized as data input for hydrological projections in order to assess how climate change may affect the hydrological responses in different river basins throughout the world. However, the GCM simulated climate data are less accurate at the basin scale due to their coarse spatial resolutions
