Publication Spotlight: Assessing the impact of soil data resolution on streamflow prediction

Can policymakers rely on hydrological models to inform watershed management, climate adaptation, and disaster preparedness? Doctoral researcher Shanali’s latest publication highlights a critical gap: the scarcity of reliable soil data worldwide. Focusing on Sri Lanka’s central highlands, she investigates how the resolution of soil datasets impacts model accuracy, revealing why data quality matters for sustainable water futures. Watch Shanali’s spotlight video to explore the insights from her research. Read the full paper: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214581825005129?via%3Dihub
