Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation
The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...

Record or near‐record low streamflows— including some of the lowest April flows in nearly 50 years of record—were reported all along the East Coast from Maine to Florida during April, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). In contrast, well above average flows for the month were reported on many streams in the Midwest, Far West, and Rocky ...

Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

Flows of most of the nation's key index streams were average to well above average in the first full month of summer, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Department of the Interior.A USGS network of 173 index gauging stations provided the regular month‐end check of the status of streamflow conditions across the country.

ABSTRACT Visualizing and communicating flood inundation depth and extent can be valuable for informing decisions related to flood preparedness and disaster response. In the United States, several different types of flood inundation mapping (FIM) exist and a new National Water Model (NWM) FIM product is being rolled out across the country (expected to ...

Flows of the nation's key index gauging streams were at average to well‐above average levels for June across much of the country, according to a regular check on the condition of the nation's water resources by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).USGS hydrologists said that of the 170 key index gauging stations nationwide, flows at 66 sites (39%) were ...

Direct Policy Search for a Risk‐Based Levee Design Framework With Scenario Reduction
ABSTRACT Risk‐based management of coastal flood risk using realistic, process‐based models poses computational challenges, particularly when addressing uncertainties like sea‐level rise. This study explores the use of direct policy search (DPS) as a state‐dependent, adaptive decision‐making approach for upgrading levee systems.

Heavy rains, combined with melting snow, caused flooding in most of New England early in the month. Conditions in Maine were so extreme that the state was declared a disaster area on April 8. Flooding also occurred in Florida, but no damage was reported .

Elevation shapes alpine snow algal blooms and their influence on albedo reduction
Graphical summary of elevational trends in Sanguina‐dominated snow algal blooms. Increasing elevation was associated with larger cells, lower Chla content per cell, higher astaxanthin ratios, lower snow water content, and reduced cell‐normalized albedo, whereas algal cell density showed no consistent elevational trend.
