Evaluating Approximations of River Channel Shape Using a National Cross‐Section Database

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Many hydrologic applications require basic information on the size and shape of river channels, but measuring cross section (XS) geometry in the field or via remote sensing can be costly and often provides only partial coverage. Given these challenges, we capitalized upon an existing data set of 46,971 XS from gaging stations to evaluate ...

Modeling Study on Enhancing Overall Sediment Transport Efficiency in a Reservoir‐River Coupled System of the Middle and Lower Yellow River

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Graphical Abstract Abstract Effective sediment management in reservoir–river coupled systems remains a global challenge due to the conflicting objectives of sediment evacuation from reservoirs and deposition reduction in downstream reaches. This study proposed a physics‐based modeling framework oriented to a reservoir–river coupled system, which ...

An Interpretable Physics‐Guided Deep Learning (IPGDL) Framework for Blue‐Green Water Robust Projection and Nonlinear Interpretation in the River Basin

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Blue water (BW) and green water (GW) resources are fundamental to the hydrological cycle, yet their effective future projection and mechanistic understanding remain challenging. Both physics‐based and data‐driven models have limitations in complex hydrological long‐term projection and nonlinear interpretation.

Bayesian‐Belief Direct Policy Search for Adaptive Water Supply Planning With Endogenous Learning

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Climate change uncertainty challenges water supply planning, where long‐lived infrastructure must ensure reliable supply under evolving conditions. Adaptive planning addresses this by incrementally expanding infrastructure only as needed, reducing unnecessary investments.

Enhancing 2D Hydrodynamic‐Based Flash Flood Simulations in Mountain Catchments: Analytical Insights From a Novel Steep‐Slope Shallow Water Framework

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Flash floods frequently occur in steep mountainous catchments, where topographic gradients play a crucial role in concentrating and accelerating runoff processes. Two‐dimensional (2D) shallow water equations (SWE) are widely used to simulate such events; however, these equations are classically derived assuming small bottom slopes, typically ...

On the Construction of Multivariate Drought Indices: Theoretical Foundations and Practical Implications

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Drought indices represent essential tools for monitoring and evaluating drought conditions and evolution. Univariate indices employ the Probability Integral Transform to map data onto the standard Gaussian domain. Extending such a Gaussian normalization procedure to multivariate settings requires the usage of the Kendall distribution function ...
