The cyberseminar that was previously scheduled for today, entitled Using CUAHSI HIS to Support Large-Scale Collaborative Research in Utah by Dr. Jeff Horsburgh of Utah State University, has been rescheduled to Wednesday, May 1.
Interested in the previous cyberseminars from this spring's series? Visit the CUAHSI website to watch video and download presentation slides.
Please join us next Wednesday when Dr. Alva Couch (CUAHSI; Tufts University) will discuss the new CUAHSI Water Data Center...details to come!
The WDC provides data services to the hydrologic science community and other critical-zone science communities that require access to various sources of water data to perform research on fundamental challenges in hydrology and Earth System science. Founded in 2001, the Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science, Inc. (CUAHSI) is a 501(c)3 research organization representing more than 120 U.S. universities and international water science-related organizations.

Video: A Modular, Open-Sourced Software for the Method of Anchored Distributions
Last week's HIS Cyberseminar, which discussed the Method of Anchored Distributions (MAD) software, is now available to view online. Developed as both a HydroDesktop plugin and a standalone application, this software is used for characterizing uncertainty in model parameters. Watch the full video below:

Tomorrow: A Modular, Open-Sourced Software for the Method of Anchored Distributions
Join us tomorrow, April 10, 2013 at 3 PM (Eastern) for the next HIS Cyberseminar, which will discuss a software development partnership between researchers at the University of California, Berkeley and Brigham Young University. Here is an abstract:

The Method of Anchored Distributions software (in construction) is an extension to HydroDesktop for characterizing uncertainty in model parameters. The software is designed to supplement the search and discovery of data with a suite of Bayesian statistical analysis tools. The method is generally applicable and should support characterization of model parameters in a variety of scientific areas – current efforts are largely focused in subsurface hydrology, but new applications areas are a high priority. The software is designed to be generically compatible with other numerical simulation and analysis tools to permit even greater utility for future users. Our presentation will feature a brief summary of the Bayesian theory, a demonstration and discussion of a MAD application using the software, and an overview of the software architecture as well as development plans.
