Observation-Based Algorithm Development For Subsurface Hydrology In Northern Temperate Wetlands
… represented in current ecosystem and climate models.</p> <p>Northern wetlands have received widespread public attention due to steadily increasing summer mean global temperatures, extreme precipitation events and higher rates of natural greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the significant …

Toward improved evaluation of large scale hydrologic models: estimation and quantification of parameter uncertainty
… development of increasingly complex hydrologic models that use a wide range of parameters to represent hydrologic processes both in space and time, many challenges arise with respect to simulation and quantification of uncertainty. The goal of this research is to introduce strategies to …

Exploring the potential impacts of climate change on North America's Laurentian Great Lakes tourism sector
… of atmospheric-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) and Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model simulations show that climate change could lead to significant changes in winter weather and extreme weather in the Great Lakes region and, subsequently, impact the region's tourism …

Understanding the causes of streamflow changes in the Eurasian Arctic
… of data analysis and macroscale hydrological modeling are used to explore the controls on observed changes in annual and seasonal streamflow for several basins in the Eurasian Arctic. This work comprises three related studies. First, by comparing trends in observed streamflow and precipitation …

Assessment of irrigation use on crop yield and water supplies in the Midwestern U.S.
… between historical and future periods using the VIC-CropSyst model, which incorporates a cropping system model, the CropSyst, model, into a large-scale hydrology model, the VIC model. First the effect of climate change on non-irrigated crop yields is quantified, then the ability of irrigation to …
