Incorporating Antecedent Moisture Conditions and Intraevent Variability of Rainfall on Flood Frequency Analysis in Poorly Gauged Basins

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2018
Rainfall‐runoff models are frequently used for the prediction of flood discharges from extreme rainfall data in poorly gauged basins. However, the conventional methods used to estimate the frequency of flood discharges from precipitation data do not ...

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Local and regional flood frequency analysis based on hierarchical Bayesian model in Dongting Lake Basin, China

open access: yesWater Science and Engineering, 2019
This study developed a hierarchical Bayesian (HB) model for local and regional flood frequency analysis in the Dongting Lake Basin, in China. The annual maximum daily flows from 15 streamflow-gauged sites in the study area were analyzed with the HB model.

Havran Çayı’nın (Balıkesir) Taşkın Sıklık Analizinde Gumbel ve Log Pearson Tip III Dağılımlarının Karşılaştırılması

open access: yesCoğrafi Bilimler Dergisi, 2008
So many floods occurred on the Havran River in the past. From 1981 to present, floods have not occurred due to decreasing of rainfall intensity and some constructions on the river channel.

Voltage‐Reconfigurable Magneto‐Ionic Nanolayers in Dot Arrays for Probabilistic, Materials‐Engineered Security Primitives

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A magneto‐ionic security‐by‐materials‐design strategy exploits voltage‐driven N3– migration in selectively contacted FeCoN dots, creating reconfigurable sub‐15 nm ferromagnetic sublayers with deterministic and/or probabilistic (single‐domain↔vortex) states, voltage‐tunable probabilities and fully stochastic orientation/chirality.

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Discharge propagation analysis of regional and basin floods in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan
Flood propagation is pivotal to flood control security,affecting channel erosion-deposition processes,fluvial regime evolution,and river-lake interactions. Analyzing the composition and downstream variability of typical floods in the frequency domain has

Flood Frequence Analysis of Big Akaki River

open access: yes, 2020
Flood is the most critical among all the natural disasters. Flood water inundates the floodplain areas and cause vast damages to life and property. This research tries to consider more options and fills the gaps not covered by others, adopting more than five application software like Arc GIS, HEC-HMS, HEC-GeoHMS, HEC-RAS and HECGeoRAS.
