Summary
The course introduces students to basic modeling tools and methods for creating a suitable model of water levels, either watercourse or reservoir in landscape. Part of the subject will be concrete application of modeling of real watercourse and reservoir together with flow simulation. The subject further discusses the possibilities of modeling water levels in solving water management and environmental issues.
