National modelling seminar 10th of December 2025

The national modelling seminar 2025 brings together researchers, experts, and practitioners working with hydrological and water resource models. The aim is to share research, practical experiences, and new ideas to support better use of models in water and environmental management.

Join the National Modelling Seminar on the 10th of December in Helsinki, Finland

This year’s seminar highlights ecosystem-based modelling, nutrient and carbon flows from land to sea, and new applications of Digital Twins, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) in hydrology and water systems. The program also includes sessions on land use impacts, climate resilience, and source-to-sea approaches.

Participants are invited to present research, case studies, and modelling tools through short talks and poster pitches. The seminar offers a valuable opportunity to connect with others, learn from ongoing projects, and be part of a national network aiming to strengthen the role of modelling in decision-making.

Date: 10th December 2025  
Time: 8:30 – 17:00
Location: Tieteiden talo, Lisa Hagman -juhlasali, Kirkkokatu 6, Kruununhaka, Helsinki
Target group: PhD students, early-career researchers, collaborators, stakeholders, policymakers

Register here!

Remember to register before the 26th of November. No registration fee.

Studying Hydropower in Cold Climates: What I Learned About Resilience

Raffa Ahmed, University of Oulu, Raffa.Ahmed@oulu.fi When I began my PhD, I thought resilience was a technical concept, something engineers talk about when designing turbines.

Smarter Short-Term Hydropower Regulation: Coupling Hydrology and Energy Modeling with AI Forecasting

Sajjad Mohammadzadeh Vatanchi, University of Oulu, Sajjad.MohammadzadehVatanchi@oulu.fi Short-term hydropower regulation is at the heart of balancing renewable energy supply and demand in today’s dynamic power systems. But with increasing climate variability and pressure for clean energy, traditional methods are no longer enough. My research examines how coupling hydrological and energy
