EGU Workshop Validation in Flood Risk Modelling (Day 1)
Description
On the first day of this workshop we will focus on the need of validation and available techniques with regard to the flood hazard (Session 1 - Hydrology and Hydraulics) and failure (Session 2 - Failure models). Beside the presentations there will be two comprehensive blocks for in-depth group discussions.
