Spring waters (n = 103) from locations surrounding Great Salt Lake (GSL) were mapped, collected, and analyzed to determine their chemical compositions. A ternary Ca-SO4-alkalinity plot was used to group these waters into compositional types based on...
Accurately estimating storm hydrographs for various return periods is crucial for planning and designing hydrological infrastructure, such as dams and drainage systems. A key aspect of this estimation is the separation of baseflow from storm runoff....
Floating photovoltaic (FPV) systems are a new green technology emerging lately, having the indisputable advantage of not covering agricultural land but instead the surface of lakes or reservoirs. Being a new technology, even though the number of stud...
In this review paper, we perform a comprehensive review of the current state of the art, worldwide applications, and modifications of the Snowmelt Runoff Model (SRM). Snow is a significant element of the hydrologic cycle and is sometimes regarded as...
In-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) is a common method to remediate chlorinated ethene contaminants in groundwater. Monitoring the effectiveness of ISCO can be hindered because of insufficient observations to assess oxidant delivery. Advantageously, po...
As urbanization accelerates and urban hydrological cycles evolve, roof typology emerges as a pivotal role in water retention capacity and drainage efficiency. To systematically evaluate the influence of various roof types on urban hydrological proces...
Dam breaks can lead to important economic and human losses. Design floods, which are useful to assess possible dam breaks, are usually estimated through statistical analysis of rainfall and streamflow observed data. However, such available samples ar...
The spatial distribution of precipitation is one of the major unknowns in hydrological modeling since meteorological stations do not adequately cover the territory, and their records are often short. In addition, regulations are increasingly restrict...
Existing wet tropical urban drainage systems often fail to accommodate runoff generated during extreme rainfall. Water-sensitive urban design (WSUD) systems have the potential to retrofit the existing urban drainage system by enhancing infiltration a...
Historical earthquake records are crucial for analyzing high-intensity earthquakes that occur over long periods. Since good instrumental data only date back to 1980, there are gaps in our knowledge, and qualitative assessments remain essential to exp...
Groundwater is a critical freshwater resource, yet its quality is increasingly threatened by anthropogenic activities, particularly in urbanized regions. This study employs geospatial analysis to evaluate the spatiotemporal variability of groundwater...
Reservoir regulation and river training works are significant factors influencing downstream channel evolution. However, there is still a lack of systematic studies on the evolution patterns under their synergistic impacts. In particular, the adaptab...
This study presents a global assessment of the climatological seasonal variability of river discharge into the oceans, based on an expanded dataset comprising 958 gauging stations across 136 countries. Monthly discharges were compiled for 145 major r...
This opinion paper aims to clarify the interacting elements that affect the substantial consequences of urban floods. The main goal is to elucidate the assessment of risk and its mitigation by examining relevant elements, including the comprehension...
River bends and confluences are critical features in fluvial environments where complex flow patterns, including secondary currents, turbulence, and surface changes, strongly influence sediment transport, river morphology, and water quality. The accu...
The objective of this study is to detect the locations of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) in the coastal area of the El Jebha region, located in northwestern Morocco. It is hypothesized that this zone is fed by one of the most rain-rich karstic...
The Mediterranean region is currently experiencing the effects of a climate crisis, marked by an increase in the frequency and intensity of drought events. Climate variability has led to prolonged periods of drought, even in areas not traditionally c...
Understanding how spatial drought variability influences streamflow is critical for sustainable water management under changing climate conditions. This study developed a novel Combined Drought Index (CDI) and a method to assess spatial drought impac...
Rapid suburbanization can alter catchment flow regime and increase stormwater runoff, posing threats to sensitive ecosystems. Applications of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) have increasingly been adopted as part of integrated water management efforts t...
Streamflow in the Upper Williamson Basin of the Klamath Watershed is groundwater dominated with year-to-year fluctuations in both volume and duration, including multi-year periods with no streamflow. The relationship between precipitation, groundwate...
A semi-empirical method for estimating actual evapotranspiration (ETa) based on ancillary and NDVI data, named NDVI-Cws, is currently being refined for improved applicability to wetlands. The investigation, in particular, addresses the case of semi-n...
This study evaluates the impact of precipitation ensembles on flood hazards in the Ouémé River Basin by coupling the hydrological HBV and hydrodynamic HEC–RAS model. Both models were calibrated and validated to simulate hydrologic...
Increasing pressures on groundwater in the last decades have led to a deterioration in the quality of groundwater for human consumption around the world. Beyond the essential evaluation of groundwater dynamics and quality, analyzing the situation fro...
The Precipitation Concentration Index (PCI) is considered a powerful tool that can be used to analyse the spatial and temporal distribution and variability of precipitation over a region. It plays a significant role in planning and managing water res...
The Honghe Hani Rice Terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage agroecosystem, embody a millennia-old synergy of cultural heritage and ecological resilience, yet face declining water yields amid land-use intensification and climate variability. This study emp...
Extreme rainfall events directly increase flood risks and further trigger environmental geological hazards (i.e., landslides and debris flows). Meanwhile, rainfall-induced risks are determined by climate and geographical factors and spatial socioecon...
Recent scientific literature has consistently highlighted a significant increase in both the frequency and intensity of flood events, primarily attributed to the effects of climate change. Projections suggest that this trend will likely intensify in...
The surface water quality issue in arid regions is becoming increasingly severe and has become a significant challenge for global environmental protection and water resource management. By continuously collecting surface water samples (2000~2024) and...
This study quantifies the atmospheric deposition (AD) of nutrient loads into the Farmington Bay ecosystem via wet deposition over a three-year period. We analyzed nutrient concentrations from 509 total phosphorus (TP), 507 orthophosphate (OP), and 51...
Macroalgae are an integral part of estuarine primary production; however, their excessive growth may have severe negative impacts on the ecosystem. Although it is generally believed that algal blooms may be caused by a combination of excessive nutrie...
The fast pace of urban development and increasing intensity of precipitation events have made managing urban stormwater an increasingly difficult challenge. Hydrologic models are commonly used to predict flows and assess the performance of stormwater...
In this paper, a novel approximate triangular fuzzy finite element method (FEM) is proposed to solve the one-dimensional second-order unsteady nonlinear fuzzy partial differential Boussinesq equation. The physical problem concerns the case of the dro...
