This task is focused on setting up a distributed model for Nord Trøndelagdivided in two parts:
The first part is related to snow measurements in the Namsvatn catchment. NTE may not be allowed to measure snow in the Børegfjell national park in the future, and they therefore want to know if measurement sites outside the national park is representative for the park. This task should be done by a statistical analysis of historical measurements outside and inside of the national park.
The second part should investigate inflow computations for the catchments power company for their catchment in Namsvatn, Meråker and Follavatn. The model should use
simulated use simulated Arome data as input, and these should be compared to similar data from Storm. A possible
autumn project related to this is to evaluate snow data from Børgefjell to see if these can be represented
with data outside the national park.. The comparison should focus on calibration quality, uncertainty and the applicability of using the data for long term and short term forecasting.
The thesis will be a co-operation with Bjørn Sæther, hydrologist at NTE.
