1. Hydrological forecasting:

• Real-time informational forecasting systems
• Short-term forecasts
• Long-term forecasts
• Rainfall-runoff processes modelling
• River flow propagation modelling
• Hydrological forecasts of other phenomena (sediment transport, ice phenomena, etc.)

2. Meteorological inputs for hydrological forecast:

• Meteorological models
• Quantitative precipitation forecasts
• Satellite and radar data information
• Probabilistic hydro-meteorological forecast systems
  
  
  

3. Hydrological processes:

• Hydrological balance models
• Soil-vegetation-atmosphere transfer models
• Ecological aspects of hydrological processes
• Groundwater and river interactions
• Ice and thermal regime processes
• Soil-vegetation-atmosphere transfer models
• Groundwater and river flow interactions

4. Erosion, sediment transport and sedimentation:

• Monitoring of catchment and river bed/reservoir erosion and sedimentation processes
• Modeling of erosion and sediment transport
• Morphology and river bed deformation
  
  
  

5. Water quality and ecohydrological processes:

• Water quality monitoring (surface and ground water)
• Water quality modelling
• Transport and transformations of pollutants
• Water quality and sediments
• Interactions between hydrology and fluvial ecosystems
  
  
  
  
  

6. Water resources management:

• Quantitative and qualitative water resources assessment
• Regionalization of hydrological characteristics
• Strategies of water resources in the context of land use and climate changes
• Decision support systems for water management and water resource conservation and protection
• Ecological and socio-economic vulnerability as regards to hydrological extremes
• Flood processes and control
