Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The change in the frequency of wet spells in tropical Australia in summer primarily contributes to the change in precipitation between wet and dry years. In the extratropics, both the frequency and intensity of wet spells are important, especially in winter.

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge (Q$$ Q $$) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Globally, there has been an increase in the development and use of hydropower to produce energy. Hydropeaking is an operating regime that is used to meet real‐time energy demands; however, daily fluctuations in flows may result in fish becoming stranded.

Resilient Flow Regimes in the Rio Grande—Río Bravo Basin
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water is essential for human development and is an indispensable resource for economic activity and a country's growth. However, current water practices, along with increasing land‐use change, climate change, and agricultural practices, have significantly altered the hydrological cycle and water availability.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Columbia river provides the largest Pacific outflow in the Western Hemisphere and the greatest hydropower production of any North American river system. For hydropower generation and flood risk management, four massive water storage reservoirs followed the Columbia River Treaty between Canada and the United States, with three Canadian dams,

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT River infrastructures such as weirs, dams, inlet and outlet regulators often impair connectivity, leading to degradation and loss of key habitats for riverine fishes. This also holds true for golden perch (Macquaria ambigua Richardson), a migratory species in Australia's Murray–Darling Basin.
