Modelling, GIS andremote sensingPart 1 –Integrated catchment modelling05 November 2008Andrew Wade (a.j.wade@reading.ac.uk)Department of GeographyThe University of Reading, UK
Introduction
• Principles– Issues and complexity– Water resource management– Modelling approach
• Examples– INCAN– Inclusion of remote sensing data– Farming– Effluent– Climate change
• Limitations of models
• Summary

Why model?• Barnsley 2008, Environmental Modelling, Chapter 1• Building a welldesigned model forces one to examine
the– Component elements of an environmental system– Processes and structures that govern the relationships and
interactions between them– Spatial and temporal scales over which the processes and
structures operate
• Scenario analysis for management
DefinitionsSpatial Scale
– Plot: 1 m2
– Smallscale, research: 10 km2
– Mesoscale: 100 km2
– Largescale: 5 000 km2
– Regionalscale: 20 000 km2
– Nationalscale: 250 000 km2

N Models: Upland• MAGIC and MERLINAdvantages
– Acidification– Dynamic– Process representation
Disadvantages– High data requirements– Upland systems– MAGIC has simplistic N component
N models: Agricultural• SUNDIALAdvantages
– Dynamic– Simulate hydrological and chemical processes
Disadvantages– High data requirements– Field scale only
N Models: Empirical• Export Coefficient
Advantages– Low computational requirement– Easy to apply at different spatial scales
Disadvantages– No hydrological or chemical process representation
N models: Instream• QUASARAdvantages
– Dynamic– Instream processes and pollutant routing
Disadvantages– Instream only
What is INCA?• Integrated Catchment model
• N dynamics in complex river systems– Terrestrial
– Instream
• Point and diffuse
• Processbased, mass balance
• Daily
• Simulates NO3, NH4

Temperature dependencies
Rate coefficients are temperature dependent
where θs = soil temperature
where θa = air temperatureC16 is the maximum temperature difference between winter and summer

Advantages and disadvantages ofthe INCAN approach
Advantages• Processbased, dynamic, spatialvariability• Catchmentscale, range of issues• Terrestrial and instream• Data readily available• Userinterface• Reach and landuse based output• Quick to run• Links to aquatic biology (INCAP)• Europeanwide use by research groups• Common structure for variants (Sed, N, P, C, Hg, Mine)
Disadvantages• Pointsources on tributaries• Fullydistributed routing• Relatively data intensive• GIS and modelling skills• Equifinality
Advantages and disadvantages ofthe INCAN approach
Summary• Range of nutrients (nitrogen) issues• Complexity of catchments• Need for integrated modelling• Example of INCAN• Demo• Scenarios
Next Uncertainty• What makes uncertainty?• How can remote sensing and GIS
help?
