17th Annual Catchment Science Summer School 2026

 

The 17th Annual Catchment Science Summer School will be run in person from 6 - 11 September 2026. It is designed for PhD students and postdocs in catchment science. The course is taught by Dr. Jeff McDonnell (University of Saskatchewan and University of Birmingham) Dr. Chris Soulsby, Dr. Jan Seibert, Dr. Ilja van Meerveld, Dr. David Hannah and Dr. Stefan Krause. It is co-hosted by the University of Birmingham and the University of Aberdeen, University of Zurich, TU Berlin and the Global Institute for Water Security.

This course is an excellent opportunity for professional networking and planning next-steps in your career.

 

Course Overview

 

The Catchment Science Summer School is a 5-day short course that is intended for post-graduate students and post-docs interested in a hands-on catchment science curriculum, focusing on northern catchments, runoff processes and combined hydrometric, isotope/chemical tracer and modeling techniques in catchment hydrology. The learning objectives for this short course are to understand:

 

  • Rainfall-runoff processes
  • Rainfall-runoff model development, use, and testing
  • Hydrochemical and isotopic measurement and analyses
  • Linking field experiments with modeling approaches
  • Evolution of empirical and theoretical understanding of runoff processes
  • Landscape analysis, land-use and climate change impacts on streamflow

 

Please note, demand is high for positions on this course, so please secure your spot - buy a ticket here.
