Abstract: Vegetation plays an important role in water and energy cycles on land surfaces. Nevertheless, the physical effects of vegetation are not explicitly considered in many hydrologic-modeling works. In this study, a coupled ...

Abstract: In the semiarid loess region of northwest China, the use of gravel and sand as a surface-mulching material has been an indigenous farming technique for crop production for over 300 years. A field and modeling study was ...

Abstract: Recent climate changes have observable impacts on hydrologic processes and will further affect hydrologic systems in the future. The temperature and precipitation modeled with eight global circulation models (GCMs) (selected ...

Abstract: This study evaluates the performance of three Budyko-type equations (Fu’s equation, Turc-Pike’s equation, and Milly’s equation) in modeling annual evapotranspiration in 32 watersheds covering both humid and arid regions ...

Abstract: Small-scale variations of hydrologic processes both in space and time have a significant impact on the simulation of hydrologic processes at different scales in the watershed. The objectives of this study were to investigate: ...
