Global warming is a phenomenon whereby the planet’s exposure to the sun’s radiation worsens from the high emission of gasses believed to trap heat within the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the leading greenhouse gas majorly responsible for global warming and other related issues and is a danger to global society. This one has a particular role in portraying the key importance of the shifting climate that invariably influences water supply and agricultural production. Global warming prese…

Historically, meteorological drought in the western United States (WUS) has been driven primarily by precipitation deficits. However, our observational analysis shows that, since around 2000, rising surface temperature and the resulting high evaporative demand have contributed more to drought severity (62%) and coverage (66%) over the WUS than precipitation deficit. This increase in evaporative demand during droughts, mostly attributable to anthropogenic warming according to analyses of both …

Climate change has resulted in increased use of pesticides and fertilizers in agriculture, leading to elevated pesticide and nitrate levels in aquatic ecosystems that receive agricultural runoff. In this study, we demonstrate that far-UVC (UV222) photolysis of nitrate rapidly degrades four pesticides in surface water, with a degradation rate constant 37.1–144.75 times higher than that achieved by UV254 photolysis of nitrate. The improved pesticide degradation is due not only to the enhanced d…

Renewable energy is essential for power system decarbonization, but extended and unexpected periods of extremely low wind and solar resources (i.e., wind and solar droughts) pose a threat to reliability. The challenge is further exacerbated if shortages of the two occur simultaneously or if they affect neighboring grids simultaneously. Here we present a framework to characterize these events and propose three metrics to comprehensively assess renewable energy quality: resource availability, v…

The severity of droughts is expected to increase with climate change, leading to more frequent tree mortality and a decline in forest ecosystem services. Consequently, there is an urgent need for monitoring networks to provide early warnings of drought impacts on forests. Dendrometers capturing stem diameter variations may offer a simple and relatively low-cost opportunity. However, the links between stem shrinkage, a direct expression of tree water deficit (TWD), and hydraulic stress are not…

Authors: Vasileios Christelis, Majdi Mansour, Christopher Jackson
Journal: Water Resources Management · DOI: 10.1007/s11269-024-03997-4 · Citations: 13
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, drought
A modelling framework was developed to characterise groundwater drought at a catchment scale in the absence of adequate observational records. The framework was used to characterise historical groundwater drought events for a Chalk aquifer in southern England over the period 1971-2004 during which three major drought events occurred. A numerical groundwater model was used to simulate the groundwater level fluctuations driven by historical time-variable and spatially non-uniform recharge input…
Long-term hydroclimatic projections and climate change scenarios at regional scale in Morocco
Authors: Pedro Pérez‐Cutillas, Adil Salhi
Journal: Journal of Environmental Management · DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.123254 · Citations: 12
Matched topics: hydrologic model, water management, climate change
Morocco urgently needs an updated understanding of its water resources, considering the current knowledge’s insufficient and uncertain state. Incorporating the latest Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) is crucial for a more accurate and informed assessment. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining the hydrological dynamics of major basins, offering insights vital for strategic water resource management. To unravel Morocco’s hydrological future, we employed an integrative methodology …

cv. Micro Tom) fruits were used as materials, and different irrigation frequencies were set during the fruit expansion stage. The normal treatment (CK) was irrigated every three days, while the water deficit treatments were irrigated at varying frequencies: once every 4 days (T1), 5 days (T2), 6 days (T3), 7 days (T4), and 8 days (T5). These corresponded to 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, and 40% of the maximum field moisture capacity (FMC), respectively, with CK maintaining full irrigation at 90% of the…
Hydrological Processes, Snow Dynamics, and Remote Sensing
This theme encompasses 6 papers advancing understanding of hydrological processes through field observations, modeling, and remote sensing. Research covers snow distribution and dynamics in cold regions, forest-hydrology interactions, land use change impacts on river systems, rainfall-runoff modeling uncertainty, and satellite-based monitoring of terrestrial water resources.
On the use of streamflow transformations for hydrological model calibration
Authors: Guillaume Thirel, Léonard Santos, Olivier Delaigue, Charles Perrin
Journal: Hydrology and earth system sciences · DOI: 10.5194/hess-28-4837-2024 · Citations: 23
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff, streamflow
Abstract. The calibration of hydrological models through the use of automatic algorithms aims at identifying parameter sets that minimize the deviation of simulations from observations (often streamflows). Further, the choice of objective function (i.e. the criterion or combination of criteria for optimization) can significantly impact the parameter set values identified as optimal by the algorithm. This article discusses how mathematical transformations, which are sometimes applied to the ta…

Journal: Scientific Reports · DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-77002-8 · Citations: 19
Matched topics: hydrology, runoff, streamflow, flood
Extreme precipitation and flooding events are rising globally, necessitating a thorough understanding and sustainable management of water resources. One such setting is the Nile River’s source areas, where high precipitation has led to the filling of Lake Nasser (LN) twice (1998-2003; 2019-2022) in the last two decades and the diversion of overflow to depressions west of the Nile, where it is lost mainly to evaporation. Using temporal satellite-based data, climate models, and continuous rainf…
Plastic transport in rivers: Bridging the gap between surface and water column
Authors: Stephanie B. Oswald, Ad M.J. Ragas, Margriet M. Schoor, F.P.L. Collas
Journal: Water Research · DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.122768 · Citations: 19
Matched topics: hydrology, river, surface water
Rivers act as an important transportation pathway for land-based plastic litter to the ocean. Recently, rivers have also been identified as potential sinks and reservoirs for plastics. Knowledge of plastic transport over different depth profiles in rivers remains limited. In this study, we evaluated the vertical distribution of macro- and mesoplastics, using a larvae net and a trawl net in the river Rhine and its two major branches, i.e. Waal and IJssel. Subsequently, to estimate the relation…
