Streamflow variability and optimal capacity of run‐of‐river hydropower plants [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2012
The identification of the capacity of a run‐of‐river plant which allows for the optimal utilization of the available water resources is a challenging task, mainly because of the inherent temporal variability of river flows. This paper proposes an analytical framework to describe the energy production and the economic profitability of small run‐of‐river

Proglacial lake records of Holocene glacier behaviour and catchment processes in Slettedalen, Northeast Greenland

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Constraining Arctic catchment response to Holocene climate change is vital for understanding future environments. We present detailed sedimentological, geochemical and grain size end‐member analysis of two Holocene (~7.0 ka to present) lake sequences, S1 and S2, close to Zackenberg, Northeast Greenland.

Hydrological response to twenty-first century climate change in the Amu Darya Basin, Central Asia

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study regions: Amu Darya River, a transboundary river originated in the high mountains of Central Asia, provides water resources for 43 million people. The river is a hot spot for research and of high tension and conflicts among nearby countries.

Hydrologic similarity among catchments under variable flow conditions [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011
An assessment of regional similarity in catchment stream response is often needed for accurate predictions in ungauged catchments. However, it is not clear whether similarity among catchments is preserved at all flow conditions.

Future shift in winter streamflow modulated by the internal variability of climate in southern Ontario [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2020
Fluvial systems in southern Ontario are regularly affected by widespread early-spring flood events primarily caused by rain-on-snow events. Recent studies have shown an increase in winter floods in this region due to increasing winter temperature and ...

Influence of Climate Variability and Reservoir Operation on Streamflow in the Yangtze River [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractUnderstanding the effects of climate variability and reservoir operation on runoff is important for shipping, irrigation and water supply services, especially during extreme drought years. After the operation of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) began, the discharge processes in the mid-lower reaches of the Yangtze River were completely different from

Revisiting hysteresis of flow variables in monitoring unsteady streamflows [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hydraulic Research, 2020
Conventional streamflow monitoring methods entail one-to-one relationships between two flow variables obtained by combining direct flow measurements with statistical analyses.

Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

Using a Gridded Global Dataset to Characterize Regional Hydroclimate in Central Chile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Central Chile is facing dramatic projections of climate change, with a consensus for declining precipitation, negatively affecting hydropower generation and irrigated agriculture. Rising from sea level to 6000 m within a distance of 200 km, precipitation
