River bridge piers may collapse due to the local scour around their foundations. It is known that local scour is an effect of the three-dimensional flow field that develops near the pier and that the geometric complexity of a non-cylindrical pier may...
Quantifying groundwater recharge from irrigation in water-scarce regions is critical for sustainable water management in an era of decreasing surface water deliveries and increasing reliance on groundwater pumping. Through a water balance approach, o...
First flush is a phenomenon in stormwater runoff that has been considered a topic of great interest in the field of nonpoint source pollution. Despite several attempts to define the first flush quantitively, the specified characteristics of the pheno...
Low Impact Development (LID) is one of the current research interests toward green infrastructures and urban flood control that have the capability to return developed watersheds to pre-development hydrological conditions, bringing numerous water qua...
The Ca Mau peninsula (CMP) is a key economic region in southern Vietnam. In recent decades, the high demand for water has increased the exploitation of groundwater, thus lowering the groundwater level and leading to risks of degradation, depletion, a...
Quantifying soil water budget components, and characterizing groundwater recharge from irrigation seepage, is important for effective water resources management. This is particularly true in agricultural fields overlying shallow aquifers, like those...
The synoptic mode of variability (SMV) refers to changes in atmospheric conditions over periods ranging from 2 to 10 days. In tropical regions, this variability is driven by tropical waves that have a clear signal on the wavenumber–frequency po...
Determination of skin friction factor has been a controversial topic, particularly in gravel-bed rivers where total flow resistance is influenced by the existence of small-scale skin roughness and large-scale topographic forms. The accuracy of existi...
The evolution of mankind during the last 2 centuries has generated an ever growing thrive for increased production, for the need to create novel means to generate energy and for society to change into a more consumerism-oriented version [...]
AquaCrop is a well-known water-oriented crop model. The model has been often used to simulate various crops and the water balance in the field under different irrigation treatments, but studies that relate AquaCrop to fertilization are rare. In this...
The ability to effectively transfer results of research in hydrometeorology to operational field applications is met with several challenges. This article exemplifies cooperative implementation that explicitly considers the flow of uncertainty from d...
Páramos are particular ecosystems of the Tropical Andes, where fog and low-intensity rainfall such as drizzle are commonly frequent—but the contribution of these water sources to soil water replenishment and discharge is not yet clear, m...
River-floodplains support a significant number of small-scale capture fisheries despite having undergone degradation due to human modification of river flows by dams, pollution, and climate change. River fish production is underpinned by the annual f...
The improper waterflow to wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) due to rainwater inflow, and infiltration is a growing concern due to the many problems it brings to the sector, ranging from infrastructure deterioration to environmental problems caused b...
