Abstract: Hydrologic extremes such as severe storms, floods, and droughts are inherently seasonal in nature and remain the main concern in designing hydrometric networks. In general, hydrometric networks have been designed without ...

Abstract: The question addressed in this study was: do the number and magnitude of dry and wet spells occur in a scale invariant manner in the state of Texas or not? To answer this question, a large set of monthly precipitation data ...

Abstract: Because of the complexity and rapidly occurring changes in the dynamics of human demography and water demands, it is difficult to assess the future adequacy of limited freshwater resources. The planning of water resources ...

Abstract: Assessment and understanding of past climate is an important step for drought mitigation and water resources planning. In this study, streamflow simulated using the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) model was used for ...

Abstract: This paper presents a hydrologic drought atlas for the state of Texas. The atlas depicts the spatial variation of drought severity for durations of 3, 6, 12, and 24 months corresponding to the return periods of 10, 25, 50, ...

Abstract: This study investigates four widely used satellite and gauged-based precipitation products for hydrological evaluation in the poorly gauged Tigris River basin (TRB), with an area of 445,656  km2, using the Soil and Water ...

Abstract: The identification and prediction of drought events depend on the integrity of the dataset employed. Streamflow is a good indicator of surface water availability and has dominated the literature on frequency analysis of ...

Abstract: Droughts produce a complex set of negative economic, environmental, and social impacts from regional to national scales. The drought impact can be quantified using drought index time series. This study uses the monthly ...
