Understanding the potential uses of soil moisture information in the United States
Abstract Soil moisture (SM) is an important component of the hydrological cycle that can impact runoff generation, evapotranspiration, crop growth, and wildfire behavior. Most studies, however, focus on technical aspects in a single sector, which makes it difficult to understand all of the current and potential benefits of SM information.

Groundwater Temperature Processes and Patterns: Implications for Stream Thermal Regimes
Shallow groundwater temperatures are controlled by ground surface temperatures and are influenced by climate change and land cover changes. Deeper groundwater temperature is constant year‐round, making it cooler (warmer) in the summer (winter) than surface water, and exhibits a lagged response to surface warming.

Abstract Urban regions situated along major river systems are increasingly facing flood risks, driven by the combined effects of rapid urbanization and intensifying climate change. The Quad Cities region, comprising Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa, and Rock Island, Moline, and East Moline in Illinois, is vulnerable to flood hazards caused by extreme ...

Technical System for Urban Stormwater Carrying Capacity Assessment and Optimization
The combined effects of rapid urbanization and climate change are increasingly exacerbating the risk of urban flooding. This study develops a data-efficient framework for estimating a city’s Urban Stormwater Carrying Capacity (USCC)—the maximum ...

Community Voices in Action: A Framework for Flood Resilience Workshops in a Coastal Community
Abstract Coastal communities face increasing risks from hurricanes, heavy rainfall, sea‐level rise, and flooding—all of which are intensified by climate change. Many of these communities are striving to plan proactively in advance of the next severe event; involving community members alongside managers, scientists, and other stakeholders in the ...

Using combined prediction models to quantify and visualize stormwater runoff in an urban watershed [PDF]
Stormwater runoff can transport nutrients, sediments, chemicals, and pathogens to surface waterbodies. Managing runoff is crucial to preserving water quality in rapidly developing urban watersheds like those in Northwest Arkansas.

Diel Variation of CO2 Concentrations in Australian Irrigation Dams From Spring to Summer
Abstract Small artificial waterbodies such as farm dams are recognized as important sources of anthropogenic emissions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from farm dams are highly variable across spatial scales, with sites acting as sources or sinks based on single daytime measurements.

Abstract This paper presents a topology‐aware neural network approach for the detection, location, and quantification of abnormal consumptions in water distribution networks. The approach includes two main steps: the optimization of pressure sensor locations to maximize measurement sensitivity and the development of metamodels based on near real‐time ...
