The hydrologic behavior of agricultural watersheds

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1944
During the past decade there has been much discussion, pro and con, with regard to the effects of agricultural operations upon the amount and regimen of runoff from watersheds. The problem becomes highly involved on large watersheds, because they are made up of various complexes of soil, cover, topography, and other edaphic features.

A weather generator for hydrological, ecological, and agricultural applications [PDF]

Water Resources Research, 2007
This paper presents a weather generator that allows simulation of hydrometeorological variables representative of a given geographic location: precipitation, total cloud cover, incoming shortwave radiation, air temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The approach captures the essential relationships among the quantities of interest, while modeling the ...

SARchaeological Prospection: Synthetic Aperture Radar for the Reconstruction and Mapping of Temperate Floodplain Environments

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Temperate river floodplains present a significant challenge for archaeologists, as cultural and palaeoenvironmental remains are often difficult to locate but can be exceptionally well preserved, especially where groundwater levels are high. In these alluvial environments, the deposition of thick, fine‐grained sediments has potential to deeply ...

Improving crop condition monitoring using phenologically aligned vegetation index anomalies – A case study in central Iowa

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Timely monitoring of crop conditions is essential for optimizing and assessing agricultural management. Vegetation indices (VIs) derived from remote sensing data can be useful for assessing crop conditions on a large spatial scale.

A new and integrated hydro-economic accounting and analytical framework for water resources: A case study for North China [PDF]

, 2008
Water is a critical issue in China for a variety of reasons. China is poor of water resources with 2300 m3 of per capita availability, which is less than of the world average. This is exacerbated by regional differences; e.g.

Performance of Drought Indices for Ecological, Agricultural, and Hydrological Applications [PDF]

Earth Interactions, 2012
Abstract In this study, the authors provide a global assessment of the performance of different drought indices for monitoring drought impacts on several hydrological, agricultural, and ecological response variables. For this purpose, they compare the performance of several drought indices [the standardized precipitation index (SPI ...
