HarmoniRIB - Guidelines for assessing data uncertainty in river basin management studies

The HarmoniRiB project aims to support the WFD implementation, by addressing issues of uncertainty in data en modelling, and by developing a virtual laboratory for modelling studies. This virtual laboratory will comprise of a set of river basins, of which data relevant to modelling and the WFD, are readily available for the scientific community. The data can be used for comparison and demonstration of methodologies and models relevant to the WFD. This report helps to find suitable uncertainty models to describe data uncertainties. It gives in no way clear-cut solutions to find uncertainty models for a given hydrological variable. (D2-1 Guidelines for assessing data uncertainty in river basin management studies)
