A Decision Support System For Integrated River Basin Management Of The German Elbe
"... Water resources management on the river-basin scale as requested by the European Water Framework Directive is a highly complex task: not only the complex network of interdependencies of elements of the natural, ecological and socio-economical systems and their linkage but also the interests of vario ..."

of various stakeholder groups must be taken into account. For this purpose a decision support system for integrated river basin management of the German part of the Elbe river basin (Elbe-DSS) has been developed, which involves taking into account water quantity, chemical quality, and ecological status
Application of the Elbe-DSS to Water Quality Issues
"... Abstract: The Decision Support System for the Elbe river basin (Elbe-DSS) was developed as a tool to assist water managers. A user can select various measures and compare them to evaluate their relative effectiveness in achieving a good ecological and chemical status of the Elbe and its tributaries. ..."

Appropriate Accuracy of Models for Decision-Support Systems: Case Example for the Elbe River Basin
"... Abstract: Given the growing complexity of water-resources management there will be an increasing need for integrated tools to support policy analysis, communication, and research. A key aspect of the design is the combination of process models from different scientific disciplines in an integrated s ..."

to the objectives set by end users, without being more complex than necessary. De Kok and Wind [2003] refer to this approach as appropriate modeling. A good case example is the ongoing pilot project aiming at the design of a decision-support system for the Elbe river basin. Four functions are accounted for
2004: The effects of climate change on the hydrology and water resources of the Colorado River basin
- Climatic Change
"... ABSTRACT The potential effects of climate change on the hydrology and water resources of the Colorado River basin are assessed by comparing simulated hydrologic and water resources scenarios derived from downscaled climate simulations of the U.S. Department of Energy/National Center for Atmospheric ..."

percent less for Periods 1-3, respectively. Analysis of water management operations using a water management model driven by simulated streamflows showed that streamflows associated with control and future BAU climates would 1 significantly degrade performance of the water resource system relative
Water resources management and water availability in the Elbe river basin under conditions of global change
"... Abstract: Global change challenges long-term planning in water management. Practical management requires plausible and consistent scenarios as well as assessments of possible climatic, technological and social developments and their impacts. These problems are subjects of research within the GLOWA E ..."

Elbe II – project. The project’s goal is to develop a water management strategy for possible adaptation to global change in the Elbe river basin (about 150,000 km2). One important component of the multi-disciplinary project is the analysis of conflicts related to water availability. For that purpose a
GLOBAL CHANGE IMPACTS ON THE WATER CYCLE IN THE ELBE RIVER BASIN – RISKS AND OPTIONS GLOBAL CHANGE AND SUSTAINABLE WATER USE IN THE GERMAN ELBE REGION – A REVIEW OF SIMULATION RESULTS OF THE GLOWA-ELBE
"... The German Elbe basin is characterised by low water availability and high nutrient loads in its river system. Due to low average annual rainfall and high probability of further reductions in coming decades, the basin appears to be particularly exposed to potential climate change effects. The GLOWA-E ..."

Multi-Objective Calibration Of A River Water Quality Model For The Elbe River, Germany
"... There is a growing need to use river water quality models for the development of river basin management plans. Substantial uncertainties exist in the identification of river water quality models which partially relates to parameter uncertainties and the information content of calibration data. The s ..."
