Understanding hydrological extremes is becoming increasingly important for future adaptation strategies to global warming. Hydrologic extremes affect food security, water resources, natural hazards, and play an important role in the context of erosional processes and landscape evolution.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Stationarity Assumptions in Streamflow Sensitivity to Precipitation May Bias Future Projections
Streamflow elasticity to precipitation is a metric which is used to estimate how responsive rivers are to changes in precipitation. It is commonly used to anticipate future impacts of climate change on streamflow and is assumed to be constant in time ...

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.

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.

ABSTRACT Landscape fragmentation may influence the spatial distribution and temporal variation of non‐point source (NPS) pollution by altering hydrological processes, pollutant transport pathways, and ecosystem service functions. However, under the combined effects of natural factors (e.g., precipitation, topography) and anthropogenic factors (e.g ...

Geospatial Foundation Embeddings as Transferable Catchment Descriptors
Abstract Deep learning hydrological models rely on static catchment attributes to characterize basin heterogeneity, but these traditional descriptors suffer from regional inconsistency and limited temporal representativeness. This study evaluates geospatial foundation model embeddings (from AlphaEarth and StefaLand) as transferable catchment ...
