Validation of a Particle Image Velocimetry Algorithm Through Comparative Field and Laboratory Analysis

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow velocity measurement is fundamental to hydrological and hydraulic studies, providing essential data for streamflow estimation and river dynamics analysis. Traditional in situ methods like propeller gauges and acoustic Doppler current profilers are accurate but intrusive and labour‐intensive, while non‐intrusive image processing methods ...

Assimilation of Streamflow Observations

open access: yes, 2019
Streamflow is arguably the most important predictor in operational hydrologic forecasting and water resources management. Assimilation of streamflow obser- vations into hydrologic models has received growing attention in recent decades as a cost ...

Effect of land clearing and climate variability on streamflow for two large basins in Central Queensland, Australia

open access: yes, 2019
Dramatic land clearing occurred in Central Queensland of Australia in the 1960s–1980s, and its impacts on streamflow are of great importance for regional water resources inventory and management.

Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

Potential role of permafrost thaw on increasing Siberian river discharge

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Despite the increasing Siberian river discharge, the sensitivity of streamflow to climate forcing/permafrost thawing is poorly quantified. Based on the Budyko framework and superposition principles, we detected and attributed the changes in streamflow ...

Application of a Presumptive Standards Approach to Evaluate Environmental Flows in a Highly Regulated River Basin

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presumptive standards approach to environmental flows offers a method to develop interim guidelines for ecological and social‐cultural flow needs. The approach is based on deriving acceptable percent‐of‐flow limits based on naturalised flows (the absence of depletion or alteration of flow), and it can be an effective precursor to a full ...

August streamflow

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1986
The flow of streams in the Southeast generally remained well below average during August, although the hydrologic drought conditions of the past several months have eased, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). USGS hydrologists said that in contrast to conditions in the Southeast, which remained dry, several New York streams were at record ...

Impact of climate change on the streamflow in northern Patagonia [PDF]

open access: yes
Streamflow simulations from the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project phase 2b (ISIMIP2b) were analyzed to evaluate futurechanges in surface water resources over northern Patagonia, a region that contributes significantly to the total ...

Multi‐objective optimization of reservoir refill operate considering energy storage and hydrological conditions

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimizing reservoir refill operation rules is crucial for enhancing reservoir sustainability and resilience. This study proposes a refill operation model designed to derive optimal refill guide curves by considering flood risk prevention, maximum storage levels, and the combined benefits of hydropower generation and energy storage.

Streamflow Response to Glacier Mass Loss Varies With Basin Precipitation Across Alaska

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Diminishing glaciers affect streamflow, and given the extent of glaciers in Alaska and adjacent Canada, continued glacier mass loss is likely to have profound effects on ecosystems sensitive to runoff.
