Hydrological responses to moorland land-use change
… of the effects of land-use change on hydrological systems have considered the modification of forest areas. In this thesis, a headwater area in the North York Moors is used to examine the consequences of maintaining a land management regime which has received comparatively little …

Deciphering Hydrological Responses: Elastic and Poroelastic Behavior Through GPS Temporal Analysis
Hydrologic features, such as lakes and reservoirs, load the surface of the earth which causes measurable deformation. As the surface is loaded, there is a vertical and horizontal deflection, with reference points moving downwards and towards a load as the surface is depressed. The horizontal and …

Hydrological responses to the synergistic changes in climate and land cover in the alpine pastoral region
Quantifying the hydrological responses to climate change and land use and land cover (LULC) change is imperative for sustainable river basin management. In this study, hydrological regimes of the upper Lancang River Basin under environmental changes are assessed using a semi-distributed hydrologic …

Large-scale Process-based Urban Hydrological Modeling Framework
… natural and anthropogenic factors in influencing hydrological responses, highlighting the varied impacts of BUSNs and reservoir operations on flooding. Our proposed modeling framework is an effective tool for simulating urban hydrological responses under different hydroclimate conditions, …

The role of blanket peat moorland management in the generation and amelioration of discolouration of surface water supplies
… relationships between meteorological inputs and hydrological responses were established during a calibration period prior to intervention in management. Six catchments were instrumented and the relationships between water discolouration and hydrological and land management characteristics were …

Multi-Satellite Remote Sensing of Land-Atmosphere Interactions: Advanced Data-Driven Methodologies for Passive Microwave Retrievals of Flood and Precipitation
… conditions the snowpack dynamics and hydrological responses. The proposed approach relies on a nearest-neighbor search based on a weighted distance metric and a modern sparsity-promoting inversion method using observations from optical, short-infrared, and microwave bands, thereby …

Connectivity dynamics and its impact on material flux and transformations in a watershed
… The magnitude and frequency of events that hydrologically link landscape units are thought to relate closely to the ecological integrity of landscapes (Freeman et al. 2007, Pringle 2003). In this study, an improved understanding of connectivity is sought through the development of a new …

Comparative assessment of flood resilience in urban and rural environments: a case study of Chennai City and Wardha River Sub-basin, India
… the role of land use changes, urbanization, and hydrological factors, it provides insights into the differing mechanisms, impacts, and management strategies required for these environments. In urban areas like Chennai, flooding is predominantly driven by rapid urbanization, unplanned development, …

The influence of the Critical Zone on hillslope hydrology and stability
… It is essential for regulating the incidence of hydrological processes and hydro-geo hazards. Enhancing predictive models of infiltration, discharge production, and landslide initiation, requires an understanding of the relationships between the CZ and hillslope hydrology. In this research, the …

Combining Gauge and Radar Derived Observations to Estimate Precipitation Input to A Watershed
<p>Watersheds are complicated systems that require sophisticated computer models to support environmental and water resource management decision making. For example, once a watershed model has been built and calibrated for a particular watershed system, it can be used to simulate different …
