Meetings and Presentations
The biannual PTAC meetings provide:
- Technical advice regarding model development, calibration and validation, including possible access to datasets that may be used in the process.
- Input regarding the communication of research findings and uncertainty associated with them.
- Advice about possible scenarios to be generated and tested from the BREE Integrated Assessment Model (IAM), as well as the land use, hydrology, climate, governance and economic models that are to be wrapped into it.
- Advice about the development of actionable, decision-support tools to inform water quality in the face of changing frequencies and intensities of extreme events in the study areas.
