Spatiotemporal Variation and Factors Influencing Water Yield Services in the Hengduan Mountains, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Conducting a quantitative assessment of water yield in mountainous areas is crucial for the management, development, and sustainable utilization of water resources. The Hengduan Mountains Region (HDMR) is a significant water-supporting area characterized

THM and HAA formation from NOM in raw and treated surface waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The disinfection by-product (DBP) formation potential (FP) of natural organic matter (NOM) in surface water sources has been studied with reference to the key water quality determinants (WQDs) of UV absorption (UV254), colour, and dissolved organic ...

Key landscape and biotic indicators of watersheds sensitivity to forest disturbance identified using remote sensing and historical hydrography data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Water is one of the most critical resources derived from natural systems. While it has long been recognized that forest disturbances like fire influence watershed streamflow characteristics, individual studies have reported conflicting results with some ...

Irrigation-Yield Production Functions and Irrigation Water Use Effciency Response of Drought-Tolerant and Non-Drought-Tolerant Maize Hybrids under Different Irrigation Levels, Population Densities, and Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Irrigation-yield production functions (IYPFs), irrigation water use effciency (IWUE), and grain production per unit of applied irrigation of non-drought-tolerant (NDT) and drought-tolerant (DT) maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids were quantified in four ...

Hydrologic effects of large southwestern USA wildfires significantly increase regional water supply: fact or fiction?

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2016
In recent years climate change and historic fire suppression have increased the frequency of large wildfires in the southwestern USA, motivating study of the hydrological consequences of these wildfires at point and watershed scales, typically over short

An assessment of water yield ecosystem services in Periyar Tiger Reserve, Southern Western Ghats of India

open access: yesGeology, Ecology, and Landscapes, 2021
Protected area water yield calculation and mapping are of great importance to the conservation planning and resource management. A water yield model based on InVEST was employed to estimate water yield in Periyar Tiger Reserve, a representative in the ...

Investigating the Combined Effects of Climate Change and Human Interventions on Water Yield Using Ecosystem Services Modeling in the Hirmand Transboundary River Basin [PDF]

open access: yesاکولوژی انسانی
The scarcity of water resources has always influenced environmental planning. This issue is particularly important in transboundary water resources, for which their planning and management are related to two or more neighboring countries, and every ...

Dramatic effect of fluid chemistry on cornstarch suspensions: linking particle interactions to macroscopic rheology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Suspensions of cornstarch in water exhibit strong dynamic shear-thickening. We show that partly replacing water by ethanol strongly alters the suspension rheology.

Neutron production by cosmic-ray muons at shallow depth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The yield of neutrons produced by cosmic ray muons at a shallow depth of 32 meters of water equivalent has been measured. The Palo Verde neutrino detector, containing 11.3 tons of Gd loaded liquid scintillator and 3.5 tons of acrylic served as a target ...

Study of the Mechanisms Driving Land Use/Land Cover Change and Water Yield in the Ganjiang River Basin Based on the InVEST-PLUS Model

open access: yesAgriculture
Water yield is a critical component of hydrological ecosystem services, influenced by both natural environments and human activities. Changes in land use and land cover (LULC) are particularly pivotal in causing water yield variations at the basin level,
