A Socio‐Hydrological Model for Adaptive Water Allocation in the Heihe River Basin

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Sustainable management of river basins requires an understanding of how water allocation responds to the human decisions driving it, along with the subsequent economic and ecological consequences. Current models often consider water allocation decisions as single and discontinuous events, overlooking the continuous and adaptive nature of human

Integrating GRACE and InSAR Data to Assess Land Surface Displacement From Managed Aquifer Recharge

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Satellite‐based monitoring of groundwater changes and their surface effects is crucial for understanding hydrological processes and managing water resources in an era of increasing water scarcity. The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment follow‐on (GRACE‐FO) mission provides global measurements of terrestrial water storage anomalies, while ...
