RISEffects of Urbanization and Climate Change on Peak Flows over the San Antonio River Basin, Texas
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: thorough understanding of the peak flows under urbanization and climate change?with the associated uncertainties?is indispensable for mitigating the negative social, economic, and environmental impacts from flooding. In ...
The Contribution of Reservoirs to Global Land Surface Water Storage Variations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: an-made reservoirs play a key role in the terrestrial water system. They alter water fluxes at the land surface and impact surface water storage through water management regulations for diverse purposes such as irrigation, ...
Potential Utility of the Real-Time TMPA-RT Precipitation Estimates in Streamflow Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he potential utility of the real-time Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis real-time product 3B42RT (TMPA-RT) data for streamflow prediction, both through direct comparisons of ...
On the Changing Contribution of Snow to the Hydrology of the Fraser River Basin, Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper presents an application of the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model to the Fraser River basin (FRB) of British Columbia (BC), Canada, over the latter half of the twentieth century. The Fraser River is the ...
Using a Microwave Emission Model to Estimate Soil Moisture from ESTAR Observations during SGP99
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 1999 Southern Great Plains Hydrology Experiment (SGP99) provides comprehensive datasets for evaluating microwave remote sensing of soil moisture algorithms that involve complex physical properties of soils and vegetation. ...
Copula-Derived Observation Operators for Assimilating TMI and AMSR-E Retrieved Soil Moisture into Land Surface Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Assimilating soil moisture from satellite remote sensing into land surface models (LSMs) has potential for improving model predictions by providing real-time information at large scales. However, the majority of the research ...
Dynamics of Terrestrial Water Storage Change from Satellite and Surface Observations and Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Terrestrial water storage (TWS) is a fundamental component of the water cycle. On a regional scale, measurements of terrestrial water storage change (TWSC) are extremely scarce at any time scale. This study investigates ...
Modeling the Effects of Groundwater-Fed Irrigation on Terrestrial Hydrology over the Conterminous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uman alteration of the land surface hydrologic cycle is substantial. Recent studies suggest that local water management practices including groundwater pumping and irrigation could significantly alter the quantity and ...
A Prototype Global Drought Information System Based on Multiple Land Surface Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he implementation of a multimodel drought monitoring system is described, which provides near-real-time estimates of surface moisture storage for the global land areas between 50°S and 50°N with a time lag of about 1 day. ...
