Early Warning Indicators of Groundwater Drought in Mountainous Regions
Generalized additive models are used to identify predictor variables associated with summer groundwater levels
Summer groundwater levels are influenced uniquely by region-specific seasonal climate and hydrological variables
Combinations of predictor variables can be used as early warning indicators of groundwater drought
Cycles-L: A Coupled, 3-D, Land Surface, Hydrologic, and Agroecosystem Landscape Model
Cycles-L is a coupled agroecosystem hydrologic modeling system that couples an agroecosystem model with a 3-D land surface hydrologic model
Cycles-L simulated well stream discharge, grain crops yield, and nitrogen exports in the stream at a 730-ha agricultural experimental watershed
Cycles-L can simulate landscape level processes affected by climate, topography, soil heterogeneity, and management practices
Evidence and Controls of the Acceleration of the Hydrological Cycle Over Land
Several methods to approximate soil water residence time from commonly available hydrological variables are introduced and compared
The global terrestrial water cycle is currently accelerating and projected to do so in future climate scenarios
Precipitation changes play a more dominant role in the acceleration of the terrestrial water cycle when compared to evapotranspiration
Prolonged Drought in a Northern California Coastal Region Suppresses Wildfire Impacts on Hydrology
Little evidence of wildfire-related shifts in hydrology in drought-prone Northern California coastal region having a Mediterranean climate
When the percent of burned area increased beyond 30% of the watershed, the magnitude of the runoff response asymptotes
Post-wildfire hydrological variability did not extend outside of pre-wildfire streamflow conditions
Exploratory Analysis of Surrogate Metrics to Assess the Resilience of Water Distribution Networks
Comparative study of surrogate resilience metrics based on surplus energy, entropy and graph-theory
Sensitivity analysis allowed the selection of adequate metrics to assess resilience to demand increase and pipe failure
The weighted resilience index is the most complete metric, capable of assessing hydraulic resilience and network redundancy
