The Team
We are a team of 11 members, each hailing from diverse origins around the world. To explore the individual skills and backgrounds of our team, we invite you to check the "Members" section on our website.
Under the enlightened guidance of our esteemed supervisors, Professor Felipe de Mendonca Fileni, Caspar Hewett, and Alexandra Seawell, we embark on an exploratory mission delving into the intricacies of the Ouseburn Catchment in the United Kingdom. Over the next few months, they will provide invaluable support to our team of 11 members in this stimulating adventure.
Join us on this exciting journey of the Hydrorope project, ready to demonstrate that our diverse and skilled team is prepared to meet the challenge and excel in our mission to understand and mitigate the challenges posed by the dynamics of the watershed.

Context
The Ouseburn Catchment, situated in the heart of Newcastle, spans 55 km² with a low-gradient topography and moderate soil permeability. Heavily urbanized, it faces hydrological challenges, particularly related to stormwater management and water quality. Despite a relatively low annual average precipitation between 600 and 700 mm, this dynamic catchment exhibits a unique combination of features influencing its hydrological behavior.
In our study of the Ouseburn watershed in Newcastle, we adopt an innovative approach to analyze the impact of climate change on floods. Indeed, climate change leads to an increase in precipitation, resulting in various types of floods. Our team, engaged in the Erasmus project, aims to address hydrological challenges through an interdisciplinary approach. Our determination lies in the in-depth understanding of climate changes specific to Ouseburn, contributing to sustainable solutions for future hydrological challenges.
