2. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 2 IWRM in BRGM Lumped hydrological models Complex system modelling ex: Application of bayesian networks to account for ecology in integrated models etc,... Integrated modelling tools for Decision Support Water scenarios Participatory approaches ex: Evaluation of the « focus group » method etc,... Socio-economy of water management Geological and hydrogeological expertise

3. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 3 > Examples of 2 past projects GOUVERNe Modelling of the Hérault Socio-hydrosystem > IWRM in MEDITATE WP4 - Water Management Support System

4. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 4 GOUVERNe http://neptune.c3ed.uvsq.fr/gouverne/ TIDDD Tool to Inform Debates, Dialogue & Deliberations Development of a multimedia software designed to explore the environmental and socio-economical impacts of various water management scenarios

5. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 5 GOUVERNe The TIDDD is based on a determinist hydrogeological modelling and water management scenarios (scenarios simulations are already performed and their results are stored in a appropriate database) TIDDD

6. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 6 MAP of the TIDDD Example of result: map of the thickness of the aquifer Multicriteria evaluation of scenario

7. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 7 Modelling of the Hérault Socio-hydrosystem Study area: Upstream section (100 km 2 ) of the alluvial plain of the Hérault catchment Montpellier Béziers Mediterranean Sea 10 km

8. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 8 Multicriteria analysis > Geology (geological expertise) > Hydrology and hydrogeology (Digital Elevation Model, hydraulics, groundwater expertise…) > Land use (remote photo, field study…) > Water users, actors and conflicts (institutional study, stakeholders interviews…) Topography Satellite view Geology Water Uses and conflicts

9. MEDITATE - Kick-off meeting - Montpellier, 07-08/05/04 > 9 Modelling methodology Multicriteria analysis of the sociohydrosystem Definition of Homogeneous Units (multilayers: surface with human activities / soil and non-saturated zone / aquifer) Design of a conceptual model describing the sociohydrosystem functionning
