Description:

The objective of this research project is to understand and predict hydrological/hydrodynamic processes, including energy and mass transport, in hydrosystems such as river basins, rivers, floodplains (wetlands), soil, estuaries and reservoirs. In this sense, it is sought the development of new theoretical bases, physical simulation techniques and observation through remote sensing, aiming the characterization of these physical processes with emphasis on Brazilian hydrosystems.

The project is coordinated by:

Rodrigo Paiva
