HydroNumerics

HydroNumerics delivers a range of innovative services to better manage water resources, including lakes, reservoirs, estuaries and coastal seas. We deliver services to utilities, government agencies, consultants and private industry throughout Australia and worldwide. Our leading R&D background and partnerships ensure that our team can apply and develop new technology to solve complex and challenging problems.

Water Resources Management

We undertake scientific analysis of water resources to provide a better understanding of environmental and operational performance and deliver strategies, hardware and software to better manage your water resources.  

Numerical Modelling

We use the Centre for Water Research suite of numerical models to simulate the hydrodynamics and water quality of lakes, reservoirs, estuaries, and coastal seas. Our services include model calibration, validation and scenario evaluation to inform strategic and operational decisions. HydroNumerics offers software distribution, customisation, support and training

Decision Support Systems

We integrate sensor networks, data analysis and numerical models to deliver real-time decision support. The system provides access to up-to-date observations, scenario forecasts and analytical tools through an intuitive user interface. Our service builds and supports these capabilities within your organisation.

Environmental and Operational Change

We combine our scientific, numerical modelling and decision support skills to quantify the effects of environmental and operational change on the health of your water resources. Assessments range from the impact of floods, pollution and climate change to remedial solutions such as artificial mixing, selective withdrawal and pump operations.

Alicia to present at MODSIM 2011

14 December 2011

This week Alicia Loveless is attending the Modelling and Simulation Society of Australia and New Zealand (MODSIM) conference in Perth. The conference theme attempts to address some of the many challenges of dealing with uncertainty in the pursuit of sustainability. The vast list of topics include water resources management, land use, stream flows, climate projections, tourism, community engagement, homeland security, industrial modelling, among others.

Alicia will present two papers* on recent work HydroNumerics has undertaken with our clients at Melbourne Water and the Sydney Catchment Authority to assist with the management of some of Australia's largest reservoirs. Alicia is also enjoying networking with old and new colleagues and contacts, discussing the latest news and ideas in the field of resource modelling.

Australia - Korea Next Generation Leaders Program

28 November 2011

On Friday 2 December 2011, Chris O'Neill will travel to The Republic of Korea as part of the 2011 Australia - Korea Next Generation Leaders Program (NGLP). The program is a bilateral leadership exchange initiative that aims to bring together emerging and current Australian and Korean leaders for knowledge exchange in the areas of strategic interest to both countries. The 2011 theme is 'Sustainable Management of Water Resources and Industry'. Chris will participate in 10 days of leadership briefings, networking events and roundtable discussions with the organisations including the Ministry of Environment (Korea), Korea Water Resource Corporation (K-water) and the Korea Environmental Technology and Industry Institute. We wish all delegates a safe and successful trip.
