Abstract
The workshop ‘Climate Change Scenario Modeling using Soil and Water Assessment Tool’ was held
from 5th to 7th of May 2015 at Icarda office in Amman, Jordan, as part of the activities carried out
by the CGIAR Research Program on Drylands Systems, North Africa and West Asia Flagship, AgroPastoral
System. This report is one of the outputs generated by the Activity 6 - “Management of
water scarcity”.
The workshop has been planned by Dr. Stefan Strohmeier in collaboration with IWLMP office staff
Mrs. Grace Baghdassarian and CDU office staff Mrs. Laurice Abdul-Majid. The workshop was led and
guided by Dr. Raghavan Srinivasan from Texas A&M University, supported by multiple lectures from
Icarda (Dr. Stefan Strohmeier and Mrs. Mira Haddad), and Jordan University (Dr. Michel Rahbeh
and Dr. Maisa Shammout). Main focus of the course was on climate data use for watershed scale
modelling using SWAT software. However, the mainstreamed and trained techniques can be
applied for any else model or climate data analysis procedure. Targeted trainees of this workshop have been young NARS researchers with adequate hydrological
background capable of applying watershed models such as SWAT. Also Icarda internal scientists
participated to share experience. The workshop applicants were four Icarda project related
partners from Tunisia. Based on the fruitful discussions during the workshop future collaboration
and scientific research topics were defined.
