eWaterCycle Project Website

The eWaterCycle project envisions a collaborative environment containing many local and global hydrological models, allowing hydrologists to run experiments on high performance computing infrastructure, with multiple models, without having to be an expert in computer science. This will all contribute to further advance our knowledge of the global hydrological cycle.
