Technical visit

SWOC : Smart Water Operation Center (Royal Irrigation Department)

The center was recently opened to be a single command (data integrator) to monitor the weather and rainfall, analyze water situation and warn critical water situations. The center also disseminates water information to publics and support the decision making to executives with accuracy, on time and sharply updating (more details in http://wmsc.rid.go.th/).

Workshops

1. Nexus training

Training will provide background, international samples in waterenergy-food and environment issues and assessment tool to analyze complex system by integrating with the socio-economic development which will support policy makers, researchers and students to apply such systems.

2. Downscaled MRI-GCM data applications

The training covers introduction to the 5-km-mesh regional climate model (NHRCM) developed at Meteorological Research Institute (MRI) of the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). The dynamic downscaling was performed over the Southeast Asia Region. During training, participants will get to process the data with provided tools. NHRCM provides reliable tool for climate change analysis at a fine spatial and temporal resolution.
