Between 8 and 10 March ECMWF hosted the International Hydrological Ensemble
Prediction Experiment (HEPEX) Workshop. The workshop was organized under
the auspicies and with the help of NOAA, ECMWF, WCRP/GEWEX, IAHS/PUB and
WMO/HWR.
Objective
The main objective of HEPEX is to bring the international hydrological
community together with the meteorological community to demonstrate how
to produce reliable hydrological ensemble forecasts that can be used with
confidence by the emergency management and water resources sectors to
make decisions that have important consequences for the economy, for public
health and safety.
Participation
Representatives of operational hydrological services and operational
water resources agencies are expected to participate in helping to define
and execute the project. HEPEX' objective can be achieved if the meteorological,
hydrological and water resources communities understand the key challenges
they face and work together both to couple currently available forecasts
tools and to improve the current quality of available systems.
