Socio‐hydrology: Use‐inspired water sustainability science for the Anthropocene [PDF]
AbstractWater is at the core of the most difficult sustainability challenges facing humans in the modern era, involving feedbacks across multiple scales, sectors, and agents. We suggest that a transformative new discipline is necessary to address many and varied water‐related challenges in the Anthropocene. Specifically, we propose socio‐hydrology as a

Socio-hydrological data assimilation: analyzing human–flood interactions by model–data integration [PDF]
In socio-hydrology, human–water interactions are simulated by mathematical models. Although the integration of these socio-hydrological models and observation data is necessary for improving the understanding of human–water interactions, the ...

Building socio-hydrological resilience “improving capacity for building a socio hydrological system resilience” [PDF]
AbstractIn response to the climate change, hydrologic and environmental changes and increased uncertainties, implication of water resilience in a context of water governance is essential for improved management. This study aims to answer the following questions: 1) what are different types of resilience with regard to its several definitions, 2) what ...

Ecological wisdom, an intellectual foundation in hydraulic heritage for the development and co-evolution of coupled human-water systems [PDF]
Sustainable-integrated structural, functional, and management systems of water resources with emphasis on understanding the dynamics and co-evolution of coupled human-water systems have created concepts such as environmental hydrology, social hydrology ...

Measurements: (a) Evolution of water levels in the tank versus rainfall; b) maximum water extent in tank are after the 2012 monsoon and 08/08/2012, dark red and 2013 monsoon (30/10/2013, light red). (c) Tank area evolution estimated through computed water balance, remote sensing data and GPS tracking. Shaded grey represent the uncertainty.

Abstract Sewage released from lakeside development can reshape ecological communities. Nearshore periphyton can rapidly assimilate sewage‐associated nutrients, leading to increases of filamentous algal abundance, thus altering both food abundance and quality for grazers.

Gastrulation and hatch as critical thermal windows for salmonid embryo development
Abstract Climate change and impoundment increase river temperatures, shifting the bioclimatic envelope in which freshwater biota have evolved and increasing salmonid egg mortality. To mitigate this, conservation flows from reservoirs are often implemented to maintain favourable water temperatures downstream from impoundments throughout salmonid embryo ...

Socio-hydrological dynamics and water conflicts in the upper Huasco valley, Chile
In arid regions of north-central Chile, mining activities and agricultural land use changes lead to competing water demands, water insecurity, and related conflicts. Different local and external user groups rely on the scarce water resources.
