The Horton-Strahler ratios are important to describe the stream network and to identify the hydrologic response of a basin using the GIUH concept. These ratios are often sensitive to the selected threshold area for the extraction of the stream network ...

California's Central Valley Groundwater Wells Run Dry During Recent Drought
Declining water tables are causing wells to run dry in California, but the prevalence and spatial distribution of wells that have run dry are not known beyond anecdotal and voluntary reports. Here, we apply a new, simple, and measurement‐driven method to

Simulating solute transport in an aggregated soil with the dual-porosity model: measured and optimized parameter values [PDF]
The capability of the first-order, dual-porosity model, which explicitly accounts for non-ideal transport caused by the presence of ‘immobile’ water, to predict the non-ideal transport of non-sorbing solute in a constructed aggregated soil has been ...

Identification and Evaluation of Potential Floodplain Areas Using the Floodplain Evaluation Matrix - Romanian Case Study. [PDF]
A large number of floodplains got lost due to settlements, infrastructure and agriculture. The reconnection of floodplains plays a significant role considering water retention potential and other aspects such as biodiversity conservation, improvement of ...

Water reuse for irrigated agriculture in Jordan: challenges of soil sustainability and the role of management strategies [PDF]
Reclaimed water provides an important contribution to the water balance in water-scarce Jordan, but the quality of this water presents both benefits and challenges. Careful management of reclaimed water is required to maximize the nutrient benefits while

Water balance components of the potential agricultural grabens along the Rift Valley in northern Ethiopia [PDF]
Region: Ethiopia's Rift Valley. Focus: matching agricultural water demand and supply is a growing policy challenge in drylands. We investigated the water balance components in Raya (3507 km(2)) and Ashenge (80.5 km(2)) grabens. The rainfall depth, river
