CUAHSI hydrologic information systems

The Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science (CUAHSI) is in the process of developing an information infrastructure for the support of the hydrologic science throughout the hydrologic community.This system will be based on a hydrologic data model integrating data from many water disciplines, as well as many related disciplines such as ecology and solid earth science, tracing the flow of water and transport of constituents throughout the landscape, and integrating data across a range of scales of space and time. The resulting system will provide an innovative platform for asking an entirely new class of hydrologic science questions concerning the holistic functioning of the hydrologic cycle.
