How do sand-bed meandering rivers co-construct their own bankfull discharge and bankfull channel geometry? Analytical and numerical study
… slope, and bankfull discharge when the flow spills out onto the floodplain. No specific discharge is sufficient, however, to describe how the channel maintains itself. Above-bankfull flows increase the height of the floodplain and deepen the channel. Modestly below-bankfull flows drive …

Assessment of Predictive Real-Time Control Retrofits on Stormwater Basin Performance in an Urban Watershed
… the site and watershed outlet in regards to peak flow and the flow duration curve are compared to conventional, static control. The ponds retrofit with the novel predictive RTC algorithm had lower peak flows during 24-hour design storms more consistently than when retrofit with reactive RTC. The …

Assessment of the effect of climate change in anticipated water resources availability in arid climate zones
… for all regions. (2) Combine the results of the flow duration curve and the digital filtering algorithms to overcome the limitations of the traditional baseflow separation methods, and then determine the baseflow annual variations. The water yielded from the basin storage system during the dry …

Striking a balance between water for food, energy, and the environment: a quantitative framework to guide sustainable water management for a changing future
… determine the dominant processes controlling the flow duration curve, while the second utilizes insights from the first to guide analysis of the historical co-evolution of two intensively-managed case study catchments to better understand human-hydrologic system interactions. Results from the …

Distribution and abundance of nearshore aquatic habitat, Fraser River, British Columbia
… during periods of higher than average flows, or decrease exclusively during periods of lower than average flows. Instead, habitat abundance response to flow may occur with a two- or three-year lag. Short term changes in stage are critical to amount of preferred habitat. Optimal …

Data-driven analyses of watersheds as coupled human-nature systems
… as coupled human-nature systems, namely streamflow frequency and instream biotic integrity. We also aim to understand how the dominant controls of these emergent properties change through time. This study targets these needs by quantitatively linking natural and anthropogenic drainage area …
