Title: Enabling collaboration through data and model sharing with CUAHSI HydroShare
Presentation Type: Lightning Talk
Abstract: Collaboration is central to CIROH. Advancing hydrology research to operations relies on model and data sharing, requiring open data integration, accessible computing, and teamwork. The CUAHSI HydroShare platform was developed to enable researchers to share digital products from their research, including data, models, and workflows, in line with Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) principles. This project advances HydroShare for CIROH collaborative research and education with objectives to (1) enhance community data access; (2) establish interoperability with scalable computing; (3) demonstrate computational reproducibility; and (4) establish and grow a CIROH Community on HydroShare. This presentation will show the use of the CIROH 2i2c JupyterHub platform linked to HydroShare for accessing high community value datasets such as NOAA Analysis of Record for Calibration (AORC) Dataset and the hydrofabric dataset of connected rivers, lakes and catchments. The presentation will also cover configuring and running research instances of NextGen subsets to evaluate options for improving the National Water Model as it adopts the NextGen framework.
