EUPORIAS WP23: Impact Models for impact predictions

• AQUATOOL: It is a Water Management Tool with different modules (SIMGES, OPTIGES, SIMRISK). ?Model URL: http://www.upv.es/aquatool/index_E.html
• MORDOR: It is a hydrological model for catchments in France.
• E-HYPE: This model simulates water flow and substances on their way from precipitation through soil, river and lakes to the river outlet. The catchment is divided into sub-basins, which in turn are divided into classes depending on land use, soil type and elevation. This Pan-European hydrological model with high resolution is operational in the SMHI production environment. It is operational to deliver real-time and forecast hydrological and nutrient data from the entire European coastline. ?Model URL: http://www.smhi.se/en/2.575/Hydrology/european-hydrological-predictions-for-the-environment-1.12711
• VIC (Variable Infiltration Capacity model): It is a hydrological impact model. ?Model URL: http://www.hydro.washington.edu/Lettenmaier/Models/VIC/index.shtml
• CGMS (Crop Growth Modelling System): Is is a detailed crop model with representation of specific crop varieties. ?Model URL: http://www.marsop.info/marsopdoc/cgms92/5_en.htm
• LPJml: This model will be used for hydrological impacts and agricultural impacts. ?Model URL: http://www.pik-potsdam.de/research/projects/lpjweb
• JULES: The Joint UK Land Environment Simulator. It is a community land surface model that has evolved from the Met Office Surface Exchange Scheme (MOSES).
• GUESS: Impact model used by University of Lund.
• GLAM: This model is used by University of Leeds.

All these Impact Models require different variables with different temporal frequencies as input data:
