Assessing water and energy fluxes in a regional hydrosystem: case study of the Seine basin by Kilic, Deniz, Rivière, Agnès, Gallois, Nicolas, Ducharne, Agnès, Wang, Shuaitao, Peylin, Philippe, Flipo, Nicolas

“…In this paper, one of the first attempts to jointly model water and energy fluxes with a special focus on both surface and groundwater at the regional scale is proposed on the Seine hydrosystem (78,650 km$^{2}$), which overlays one of the main multi-aquifer systems of Europe.This study couples the SVAT model ORCHIDEE and the process-based hydrological–hydrogeological model CaWaQS, which describes water fluxes, via a one-way coupling approach from ORCHIDEE toward CaWaQS based on the blueprint published by [de Marsily et al., 1978]. An original transport library based on the resolution of the diffusion/advection transport equation was developed in order to simulate heat transfer in both 1D-river networks and pseudo-3D aquifer systems. …”
