Implementation of WHOS in the La Plata River Basin

Sustainable water management and disaster risk reduction require free and easy access to hydrological data. The WMO Hydrological Observing System (WHOS), initiated in 2014, supports hydrological data providers and users in gaining capacities in this field. With the support of WMO and international partners, the main hydrological and meteorological data providers in the La Plata River Basin established a regional center in Brazil where WHOS is operated and sustained.
