Assessing hydrological responses to large-scale native forest restoration as a nature-based solution in South-Central Chile under climate change

Nature-Based Solutions
Forests play a fundamental role in regulating the hydrological cycle and providing essential ecosystem services, functions that are increasingly threatened by climate change and human activities.

Impact of Hydrological Modellers’ Decisions and Attitude on the Performance of a Calibrated Conceptual Catchment Model: Results from a ‘Modelling Contest’

Hydrology, 2018
In this study, 17 hydrologists with different experience in hydrological modelling applied the same conceptual catchment model (HBV) to a Greek catchment, using identical data and model code. Calibration was performed manually.

Application of hydrologic forecast model

Water Science and Technology, 2012
In order to overcome the shortcoming of the solution may be trapped into the local minimization in the traditional TSK (Takagi-Sugeno-Kang) fuzzy inference training, this paper attempts to consider the TSK fuzzy system modeling approach based on the visual system principle and the Weber law.

Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

Scale effect challenges in urban hydrology highlighted with a distributed hydrological model [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Hydrological models are extensively used in urban water management, development and evaluation of future scenarios and research activities. There is a growing interest in the development of fully distributed and grid-based models.

Distributed Lag Models for Hydrological Data [PDF]

Biometrics, 2013
AbstractSummaryThe distributed lag model (DLM), used most prominently in air pollution studies, finds application wherever the effect of a covariate is delayed and distributed through time. We specify modified formulations of DLMs to provide computationally attractive, flexible varying‐coefficient models that are applicable in any setting in which ...

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

L'utilisation des SIG dans la modélisation en hydrologie de surface [PDF]

Geographica Helvetica
From a methodological point of view, hydrological modelling appears to offer a great potential for spatial analysis. However among classes of models, only physical models consider the spatial dimension as a variable. The topography and the land cover are
