GEOtop 2.0 at AGU 2013

I was invited to talk at a Fall AGU Meeting section about High Resolution Hydrological modelling. This is the topic of the H21M session of the meeting.  The following, below (clicking on) the figure is my interpretation of the topic.

I describe GEOtop 2.0, present a few case studies, and took the occasion to do some synthesis of this work. All the merits go to my co-authors, that in the last years strongly believed and pushed GEOtop beyond what it was. The presentation does not cover the cryospheric part of the models, which will be the focus of the second presentation.

This other posts covers my second presentation at AGU, talking about how the cryosphere is modeled in GEOtop 2.0.
