This study investigated the seasonality of low-flow discharges in the Tibagi watershed, Paraná, Brazil, through the analysis of three indices: Seasonality Ratio (
Elevated concentrations of nitrate in potable water supplies have been linked to negative health outcomes such as methemoglobinemia and various cancers. Groundwater can become contaminated with nitrate from sources including onsite wastewater treatme...
With the increasing frequency of floods in recent decades, particularly in West Africa, many regions have faced unusual and recurrent flooding events. Communities in flood-prone areas experience heightened insecurity, loss of property, and, in some c...
As climate change intensifies with more frequent and severe flood events, urban areas face increasing challenges to protect population wellbeing. Amid urban development challenges, political uncertainty, and socioeconomic pressures, finding sustainab...
Waterholes in semi-arid environment are sections of rivers that fill during high river flows or floods and keep water once flow ceases. They are essential water sources for rive ecosystems. Some waterholes remain even during prolonged droughts. The r...
Biocementation is an innovative and sustainable technique with wide-ranging applications in slope stabilization, watershed management, and erosion control. Despite its potential, comprehensive evaluations of its use in hydrology and geotechnical engi...
The water resource management of transboundary mountainous river basins under climate change is expected to be challenging. In order to contribute to the better understanding of climate change effects on the water resources of the mountainous and tra...
The effect of the epikarst on the development of drawdown dolines and subsidence dolines is described. For this, the resistivity values of the bedrock determined by Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) measurements were used. The higher resistivities b...
Groundwater modeling in data-scarce regions faces significant challenges due to the lack of comprehensive, high-quality data, impacting model accuracy. This systematic review of Scopus-indexed papers identifies various approaches to address these cha...
The rational use of the water environmental resources of the main stream of the Yellow River, which is the mother river of the Chinese nation, and the control of and reduction in water environmental pollution, especially in relation to water quality...
Designing floods in ungauged watersheds with limited data is a significant challenge in water conservancy projects. To address this, the method of calculating the design flood peak and flood volume using the weighted average method was proposed, whic...
Following open-pit coal mining in the Powder River Basin, landscape reconstruction includes the construction of backfill aquifers from overburden waste rock. With overburden disaggregation and the re-introduction of groundwater, the weathering of new...
Climate change (CC) and land use/land cover change (LULCC) are significant drivers of hydrological change, and an effective watershed management requires a detailed understanding of their individual and the combined impact. This study focused on the...
Global climate change projections highlight the Mediterranean Basin as one of the most susceptible areas to the effects of intense and prolonged droughts, as well as increasing air temperatures. Accordingly, the productivity and survival of forests i...
Severe hydroclimatic events affect ecosystems and human livelihoods, creating significant challenges for managing water resources. This study analyzed the rainfall and river flow trends in the Bani River Basin (BRB) from 1991 to 2020. Using indices s...
Precipitation is a fundamental component of the hydrologic cycle and is an extremely important variable in meteorological, climatological, and hydrological studies. Reliable climate information including accurate precipitation data is essential for i...
Anthropogenic climate change and changes to land use and land management practices can have significant impacts on streamflow and sediment transport. In this study, we investigated long-term precipitation, streamflow, and suspended sediment load patt...
Tropical cyclones (TCs) are natural hazards causing extensive damage to society, infrastructure, and the natural environment. Due to the multi-hazardous nature of TCs, comprehensive risk assessments are essential to understanding how to better prepar...
River barrages ensure water availability for enhanced irrigation and human consumption. Of course, effective and sustainable management of existing barrages requires controlling riverbed erosion through appropriately designed stilling basins with the...
