Hydrological model for simulating operations and scenarios in the Misicuni dam

The Misicuni repression is currently in the final stage of construction and in a short period of time it is required to operate, which requires the necessary tools to manage the affected water resources in the area in the most efficient way possible and prevent different changes that occur in the future in terms of climate and social changes.
 

That is why it is proposed to carry out a deterministic and distributed hydrological model for the signals present in the Misicuni Multiple Project, present with this different situations and simulate the operation of the dam to compare the results with the existing operational plan and propose different probable situations that was presented, taking into account mainly climate change projections.


To achieve these there are the following specific objectives:

Carry out the delineation of the basins that would contribute to the Misicuni dam.
Collect and verify the necessary data for a hydrological analysis of the basin.
Carry out the configuration, calibration and validation of a hydrological model that best suits the basin under analysis.
Use the hydrological model to analyze different situations that may occur in the area.
Analyze the results obtained from the simulations of situations carried out by the hydrological model obtained.
This project is elaborated with the Misicuni company and its estimated period is from February to August 2016.
