WORLD HYDROLOGICAL CYCLE OBSERVING SYSTEM – WHYCOS WORLD METEOROLOGICAL ORGANIZATION – HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES PROGRAMME WHYCOS - The goals A WMO global framework programme aiming at:  improving the basic observation activities and data management  strengthening international cooperation and data exchange

WORLD HYDROLOGICAL CYCLE OBSERVING SYSTEM – WHYCOS WORLD METEOROLOGICAL ORGANIZATION – HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES PROGRAMME Need for WHYCOS Scarcity or absence of data and information on freshwater resources Obsolescence of observing networks Insufficient data management capabilities Institutional weakness of National Hydrological Services

WORLD HYDROLOGICAL CYCLE OBSERVING SYSTEM – WHYCOS WORLD METEOROLOGICAL ORGANIZATION – HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES PROGRAMME The challenge Increased water demand Reduction or deterioration of available resources Floods and droughts Impacts of climate change Management of shared resources

WORLD HYDROLOGICAL CYCLE OBSERVING SYSTEM – WHYCOS WORLD METEOROLOGICAL ORGANIZATION – HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES PROGRAMME WHYCOS – The Concept Building the capacity for water resources assessment at the national, river basin, regional and global levels Promoting regional and international cooperation in the collection, transmission, processing and archiving of hydrological data and information

WORLD HYDROLOGICAL CYCLE OBSERVING SYSTEM – WHYCOS WORLD METEOROLOGICAL ORGANIZATION – HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES PROGRAMME WHYCOS – The Objectives Strengthen technical and institutional capabilities of Hydrological Services Promote and facilitate dissemination and use of water-related information Establish a network of key national stations
