Operational hydrology would benefit from an improved understanding of the impacts of various stressors on the hydrological cycle, in support of closing the water balance.
Science provides a sound basis for operational hydrology
Science provides a sound basis for operational hydrology
Scientific knowledge should be strengthened to support operational hydrological predictions and modelling as part of an integrated Earth systems approach.
Research
WMO coordinates and organizes international research programmes to enhance the ability of its Members to improve weather, climate, water and environmental observations, prediction, service delivery and scientific assessments of regional and global environmental conditions.
