Areas of application
Catchment hydrology and yield analysis
Evaluate water yield and hydrology across catchments to optimise resource allocation and planning.
Climate change resilience and impact
Model the effects of climate variability on river systems to guide adaptation and resilience strategies.
Contaminant fate and transport
Simulate the dispersal and concentration of pollutants in riverine environments.
Dam break impact assessments
Evaluate dam failure consequences for improved emergency and mitigation plans.
Drought and water scarcity
Analyse river flow under drought conditions to develop effective water scarcity management strategies.
Ecological restoration projects
Model river dynamics to support the design and evaluation of restoration projects.
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)
Analyse the impact of development on rivers to support project compliance and environmental protection.
Eutrophication mitigation strategies
Model nutrient loading and its effects in river systems to develop strategies for reducing eutrophication.
Flood risk assessment and management
Forecast river flooding scenarios to inform flood risk reduction and emergency preparedness.
Forecasting and early warning systems
Enhance flood and drought response with accurate, real-time hydrological forecasting.
Habitat response assessments
Assess how riverine changes affect habitats and species distribution for biodiversity conservation.
Integrated water resources management
Support IWRM efforts by modelling interactions between hydrological, ecological, and anthropogenic factors.

Boost your river management and restoration efforts with the Sediment Transport module
Ensure sustainable river management and restoration with our Sediment Transport module. Designed to predict sediment dynamics in river systems, it considers sediment size, flow velocity, and channel bed slope to model a wide range of sediment transport processes. This helps users accurately simulate sediment movement, deposition, and erosion as well as assess its impact on river morphology, water quality, and aquatic habitats.
Create high-quality models in less time with built-in QA support
Having a model not run or perform as expected can be a frustrating experience.
That’s why we developed the Network Analysis tool. It analyses the quality of the MIKE 1D river network and proposes improvements and recommendations to avoid instabilities. Essentially it makes small, but impactful mistakes visible before you take your model further. So instead of contacting Support, you have the insight required to fix model errors yourself and move on.
New RDI hydrological modelling options
Explore the influence of snowmelt and irrigation through elevation zones, while enhancing your comprehension of river dynamics and precipitation patterns.
Specify infiltration per land use
Gain greater control over your catchment modelling process by defining multiple types of land uses within each catchment and customising loss/infiltration settings.
New option for rainfall interpolation from stations
Experience enhanced results with a natural, precise, and gradual intensity distribution. With spatial rainfall intensity interpolation from rain gauges, you’ll enjoy smoother, more realistic outcomes.
View topographical changes along a river with external DEM cross sections
Elevate your river modelling with the integration of external DEM cross sections in MIKE+ Rivers. This feature simplifies the process, allowing you to visualise topographical changes along the river and ensure the accuracy of your model.
New option to set markers at intersections with polylines from a shape file
Enhance river modelling precision by adding markers at intersections with external shape file polylines. Streamline cross-section editing and roughness property customisation with map-drawn lines in any GIS software. Save these lines as shape files for pinpointing riverbank locations and applying specific roughness properties to riverbed and floodplain.
