description | The Mobius model building system is a new open-source
framework for building fast and flexible environmental models. Mobius makes
it possible for researchers with limited programming experience to build
performant models with potentially complicated structures. Mobius models can
be easily interacted with through the MobiView graphical user interface and
through the Python programming language. Mobius was initially developed to
support catchment-scale hydrology and water-quality modelling but can be
used to represent any system of hierarchically structured ordinary
differential equations, such as population dynamics or toxicological models.
Here, we demonstrate how Mobius can be used to quickly prototype several
different model structures for a dissolved organic carbon catchment model
and use built-in auto-calibration and statistical uncertainty analysis tools
to help decide on the best model structures. Overall, we hope the modular
model building platform offered by Mobius will provide a step forward for
environmental modelling, providing an alternative to the “one size fits
all” modelling paradigm. By making it easier to explore a broader range of
model structures and parameterisations, users are encouraged to build more
appropriate models, and in turn this improves process understanding and
allows for more robust modelling in support of decision making. |
