SCIMAP User Group Meeting 2018
The SCIMAP 2018 User Group Meeting will be in Birmingham on the 26 September 2018. This meeting will include the launch of the new SCIMAP-FIO for mapping the potential sources of microbial pollution in catchments.…
Modelling and using structural and functional connectivity
Date: March 01, 2018 ConnectEUR workshop in Palermo, Italy. The understanding of hydrological connectivity is often broken down into two distinct types: functional and structural (see Bracken et al 2013). Functional connectivity refers to the dynamic…
Predicting diffuse microbial pollution risk across catchments: The performance of SCIMAP and recommendations for future development
Porter K. D.H.. Reaney S. M.. Quilliam R. S., Burgess C. and Oliver D. M. 2017: Predicting diffuse microbial pollution risk across catchments: The performance of SCIMAP and recommendations for future development; Science of The Total Environment 609, 456-465
Extending SCIMAP to predict E. coli delivery risk to surface waters
Agricultural practices contribute a significant amount of faecal material onto pasture via direct defecation by grazing livestock and through applications of solid and liquid manures. Managing the spatial and temporal input of this faecal loading…
my.SCIMAP Training for Trent Rivers Trust by CaBA Support
This training video was produced by Michelle Walker from the Rivers Trust for Trent Rivers Trust staff to show how to run the myScimap model and export the data for visualising and sharing in various…
New SCIMAP paper on fine sediment in the River Esk, North Yorkshire, UK
Use of spatially distributed time-integrated sediment sampling networks and distributed fine sediment modelling to inform catchment management M.T. Perks, J. Warburton, L.J. Bracken, S.M. Reaney, S.B. Emery, S. Hirst 2017: Use of spatially distributed time-integrated sediment…
A New Era of Targeted Reforestation for Diffuse Pollution Risk Reduction using SCIMAP and UAV Technology to Determine the Spatial Distribution of Diffuse Pollution Risk in Lake Rawa Pening, Central Java, Indonesia – SCIMAP-UGM16
Caitlin Curry, Durham University / United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification Like many water-bodies in Indonesia, Lake Rawa Pening in Central Java has reached ecologically unsustainable levels of water-quality degradation, eutrophication and sedimentation. This is a consequence of…
Economics of Incentivising Spatially Targeted Policies Based on SCIMAP Risk Mapping – SCIMAP-UGM16
Ashar Aftab, Durham University This presentation promises to be a mostly harmless introduction to economic issues surrounding spatial targeting for diffuse pollution control at the catchment scale. It is pitched at non-economists and presents our…
Using the SCIMAP modelling framework to inform Water Sensitive Urban Design – SCIMAP-UGM16
Nick Paling, Westcountry Rivers Trust We have been exploring the use of the SCIMAP Surface Flow Index, which shows areas of surface flow accumulation and hydrological connectivity, in combination with LIDAR Digital Terrain Model data…
SCIMAP-Flood- A preview of the new tool for spatial targeting of natural flood risk management schemes – SCIMAP-UGM16
Sim Reaney, Durham University The use of landscape based natural flood risk management approaches have risen in popularity in recent years as they have the potential to offer mitigation to flood hazards at a lower…
