Environmental flow assessment
Flow records and hydraulic models are linked to the habitat needs of fish, vegetation and wetlands to define the flow regime that sustains them.
GCRI · Biodiversity Nexus
Hydrology connects biodiversity to water: flow regimes shape freshwater habitats, wetlands store and release water, and catchment condition affects the quantity and quality of water reaching people. It quantifies the water services ecosystems provide and the flows ecosystems themselves need.
Hydrology studies the movement, distribution and quality of water across the land surface, subsurface and atmosphere. It underpins the assessment of floods, droughts and water supply, which affect food, energy, health and infrastructure together. In biodiversity and nature, climate and hazards and oceans and coasts, hydrological estimates set design standards for dams, levees and drainage and inform water allocation between competing users. They link climate hazards to downstream effects on power generation, crops and public health. The canonical description is on STEM Commons.
Flow records and hydraulic models are linked to the habitat needs of fish, vegetation and wetlands to define the flow regime that sustains them.
Rainfall-runoff and routing models are run with and without floodplain storage or forest cover to estimate how ecosystems change flood peaks downstream.
Sediment and nutrient models trace how land cover and erosion upstream affect water quality at intakes, reservoirs and coastal habitats.

Models are calibrated on one period of observed flows and tested on an independent period or neighbouring catchment. Skill scores and comparison with surveyed flood extents are used to judge performance.
| 核查 | 如何开展 |
|---|---|
| Split-sample calibration | Models are fitted on one period and tested on another, with test-period skill reported |
| Ecological response validation | Flow-ecology relationships are checked against field surveys of the species or habitats they claim to support |
| Paired scenario runs | With-and-without ecosystem runs use the same forcing so that differences can be attributed |
Assumptions of stationarity weaken as climate and land use change. Ungauged basins, karst aquifers and rapid urbanisation are poorly represented by parameters fitted elsewhere.
Rain becomes runoff by the curve number method, drains each sub-catchment through a linear reservoir and travels down the main stem by Muskingum routing; play it to watch the flood wave move and flatten. Teaching model with stated illustrative values, not a prediction. The map on this page shows The Amazon Basin; the model itself is not tied to a place.

贯穿六大支柱,由 Nexus Consortium 牵头
Assembled from the Nexus Standards area profile 生物多样性与自然风险标准: the hazards it names, the 系统 and sectors that carry the loss, the controls that dampen it and the data that observe it. Choose the components, pick an initiating hazard and step through the cascade. The Map view places the run on an example geography with open data. Every coupling weight is a stated assumption you can change. A teaching model, not a forecast, an assessment or a certification. To model a place of your own choosing, open the full System Builder.
