1 Update on the Water Cycle Community of Practice Rick Lawford November 2009 UIC Meeting Washington DC
2 Community of Practice involves a number of individuals with an enthusiasm for a specific topic. In the case of water there are many communities of interest by region, by discipline, by function,. etc. To address this complexity, the Water Cycle is working towards a structure that allows for all of these interests to be involved provided they connect with GEO interests at some point. The activities presently include most of the WA tasks as well as elements in the ADC, UIC and CBC activities with opportunities in other areas.
3 A STRUCTURE TO IMPLEMENT THE WC COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE Coordination ADC STC UIC CBC
4 The Development Stream
5 Amount (cm) Primary Water Cycle Sub-Tasks under WA WA-08-01: Integrated ASTER Soil Products for Water Resource Management and Research Improvements and Moisture expansion of in-situ networks, combined with new and existing satellite missions and emerging assimilation and prediction capabilities, are opening the door to a new era in global water-cycle management. a) Soil Moisture b) Runoff c) Groundwater d) Precipitation e) Water Cycle Data Integration f) Pilot Projects for Improved Water Discovery and Quality Assessments g) Global Water Quality Monitoring 12 8 Storages Anomalies in Saskatchew River Basin Drought Flood Apr-02 Oct-02 Apr-03 Oct-03 Apr-04 Sep-04 Mar-05 Sep-05 Mar-06 Time (Months) Surface Storage GRACE Storage
6 GTN-H is recognized as a major contributor to many of these subtasks especially discharge, surface water storage and groundwater.

Flood forecasting training seminar in Indonesia Mode-2: Training module based PP Modules in intensive workshop ex. Training modules at UNU, AIT Training Modules Mode-1 Country-A Country-B Mode-3: Country data + training module based PP one country data+multiple country participation ex. IWRM Pilot in Huong river, Vietnam Mode-2 Multiple country participation Mode-3
19 GEOSS IN THE AMERICAS Panama City Floods of September 2004 GOES IR imagery The USA and Canada have joint interests in encouraging the development of GEO activities throughout the Americas as a way of developing data sharing and information platforms to benefit all countries throughout the Region. SERVIR and CSA flood studies in the Caribbean are examples of this interest. GEO Capacity Building activities led by NASA for 2009 in Latin America include a workshop in South America from November 30 to December 4 in Lima, Peru. Approx. 70 water experts from 16 countries are expected to participate.
20 Other Activities: 1. Support for the UIC User Needs Survey 2. Support for the Water Projects under the CFP Call 3. Survey of Water Cycle Data Centres 4. Support for Technology Development (SMAP) 5. Support to AIP activities 6. Overviews of Water Information Requirements in Africa and Latin America
21 How this Community of Practice plans to function In the future Full participants would work on either research or applied projects or carry out some aspect of capacity building (on a best efforts basis). IGWCO and other components would have annual meetings. Periodic teleconference calls between the Coordinator and the leads of individual CoP components would be held to coordinate the overall effort. The project leads for all activities would come together every one or two years. Special component sessions would be launched at appropriate meetings (WWF, IAHS, AWRA, AGU, etc.) An unofficial web site (http: // is being set up and all interested people will have an opportunity to become public members of the Water Cycle Community of Practice.
22 Plans for the coming year: November 2009: An ESA/IGWCO meeting is being held to explore ways to better integrate the activities of the elements of Task WA November 2009: A Capacity Building Workshop is planned from Lima Peru. It is expected that 70 to 80 people from more than 18 countries in the Americas will participate in the workshop. (WA-06-07a) December 2009: A town hall meeting is planned for the Fall AGU meeting in San Francisco. December 2009: A joint IEEE/WC COP workshop is planned with users in San Francisco (WC COP). The workshop will explore the types of data products and services that users would to receive from GEO. February 2010: An IGWCO planning meeting is planned for CUNY in New York. A workshop that will involve (IGWCO) and international water management. May 2010: A drought monitoring workshop is planned for May 2010 in Winnipeg Manitoba (subject to being funded by the Canadian government). Spring 2010: An Asian Water Cycle meeting is planned to be held possibly in Indonesia in conjunction with the Asian Pacific GEOSS Symposium. August or October 2010: A CEOP meeting will be held as part of a pan-gewex meeting.
