Understanding scale impacts of heterogeneity and topography on water and energy fluxes in mountain meadows using a fully-integrated hydrologic model
… distributions. Many hydrologic models operate at scales which do not capture the variability of these parameters, often because of limited availability of computational resources and high-resolution data. The effects of these small-scale heterogeneities on local water-energy balances are thus …

Sensitivity tests between Vs30 and detailed shear wave profiles using 1D and 3D site response analysis, Las Vegas Valley
… from seismic energy attributed to the 3D small-scale heterogeneities of the shear-wave-velocity profiles that result in a 70% increase in peak ground velocity. Additionally, PGV ratio maps clearly establish that the increased amplification from the detailed SWVPs is consistent throughout …

Flow and Distribution of Water in Fractional Wettability Unsaturated Porous Media
… is difficult to incorporate pore- and centimeter-scale processes that result in irregular water flow and distribution during and following drainage. The resulting small-scale heterogeneities may impact subsequent infiltration and evaporation/volatilization processes. In this research, mm- and …

Assessment of scaling and information requirements of the classical advection dispersion equation and a temporal-nonlocal advection dispersion equation at the MADE site, An
… ($K$) data to better define subsurface heterogeneities and modifying the ADE to account for anomalous transport. This study seeks to further both research areas through the investigation of a single-well injection withdrawal test (SWIW) at the MADE Site with a skewed breakthrough curve …
