Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Changes in how a watershed stores, transmits, and discharges water have been driven by anthropogenic influences concurrent with changes in climate. How hydrologists untangle watershed responses to link observed changes to anthropogenic influence has advanced by applying new and novel techniques, taking advantage of newly acquired observations to decipher the role and significance of human interactions. This Special Issue seeks to capture a range of innovative studies that examine the role of human interventions in hydrology, ranging in topics from flooding, groundwater storage, low flow hydrology and water reuse, among many others. Contributions shall focus on the human fingerprint of watershed change using a variety of techniques, allowing for translational knowledge regarding anthropogenic influence derived from site-specific studies.
