When Snowpacks Shrink: Declining Weathering and Export Rates but Rising Stream Solute Concentrations in Warming Mountains

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
In a snow‐dominated headwater catchment, snow‐dependent water storage controls silicate weathering and solute export. In the driest year with the least snow water equivalent (SWE), rates of silicate weathering and export rates of weathering products were about half and a third of those in the wettest year with the highest SWE.

Flood Risk Management Using Representative Hillslopes: Insights From a Historical Flood in Southwest Germany

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
A coupled hydrologic and hydraulic modelling framework relying on representative hillslope models and scaled using hydraulic routing schemes is proposed to simulate Hortonian overland flow at intermediate scales. Using a reconstructed historic summer storm in southwest Germany (1994), we show how hillslope scale nature‐based flood prevention measures ...

Socioeconomic Impacts of Climate Variability and Change on U.S. Water Resources [PDF]

open access: yes
The socioeconomic costs of floods, droughts, and water scarcity in the years 2030 and 2095 are examined under three climate scenarios: continuation of the current climate and two climate-change scenarios based on projections from the respective results ...

Land Cover Change Drives River Flow Modifications in Central Chile

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study examines the combined effects of land cover change and ENSO on streamflow dynamics in four coastal catchments of central Chile, using a 45‐year (1979–2023) dataset of remote sensing and hydroclimatic data. Conclusions Native forest loss reduced summer flows and PP–Q relationship; preserved forests enhanced resilience.

Geomorphic Effectiveness of an Extreme Flood in a Mountain River: Evidence From Pre‐ and Post‐Event Surveys in a Subtropical Region of Southern Brazil

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
The extreme flooding of April 2024 caused a complete “geomorphic reset”, resulting in a 24% widening of the channel and a transition to critical or supercritical flow regimes. The energy of the event broke through the stable armouring layer, reducing the armouring ratio from 7.9 to 4.9 and intensely removing fine sediments from the subsurface.

Comparing ERA5‐Land and BR‐DWGD Datasets and Their Impacts on Vadose‐Zone Hydrological Modelling in the Brazilian Cerrado

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
We compared ERA5‐Land and BR‐DWGD datasets for climate trend analysis and vadose zone hydrological simulations in the Brazilian Cerrado. Bias correction improved the representation of daily meteorological variables in ERA5‐Land. Although long‐term climate change signals were consistent between the datasets, inherent errors in ERA5‐Land propagated ...

Linking hydromorphological diversity to biodiversity and functioning in running waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Environmental heterogeneity is a key driver of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, yet linking physical habitat variability to ecological attributes remains challenging in aquatic ecosystems. Here, we present a unified framework that applies variance partitioning to hydromorphological characteristics—specifically flow velocity and depth—to

Extended Strahler Ordering to Distinguish Mapped River Channels From Overland Flow Pathways and Consistently Compare Digital Networks

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 869-885, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Digital networks are virtual representations of freshwater systems that provide important inputs to, and mapping of, river classifications, simulation models, and quantitative data analyses for policy, planning, and management. Strahler order has often been used to characterize network configuration and as a proxy indicator of river channel ...

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 915-928, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge ( Q ) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom be ...

Optimizing soil moisture sensor installation depths and number of sensors for in situ monitoring networks

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Previously, developers of soil moisture monitoring networks have determined how many sensors to use and their installation depths with little objective guidance, which led to heavy reliance on suboptimal past precedents when deploying new networks. One such network, the Oklahoma Hydronet, is being developed to monitor water stored in the state'
