Hydrologic State Influence on Riverine Flood Discharge for a Small Temperate Watershed (Fall Creek, United States): Negative Feedbacks on the Effects of Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: atershed flooding is a function of meteorological and hydrologic catchment conditions. Climate change is anticipated to affect air temperature and precipitation patterns such as altered total precipitation, increased ...
Reducing Stormwater Nitrogen with Denitrifying Bioreactors: Florida Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Growth of suburban areas has led to significant nonpoint source nitrate (NO3−) pollution. Wet detention ponds reduce peak flows but are not designed to reduce NO3− loading downstream. Denitrifying bioreactors have shown ...
Does Population Affect the Location of Flash Flood Reports?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lash floods cause more fatalities than any other weather-related natural hazard and cause significant damage to property and infrastructure. It is important to understand the underlying processes that lead to these infrequent ...
Stream Discharge in Tropical Headwater Catchments as a Result of Forest Clearing and Soil Degradation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ropical Africa is affected by intense land-use change, particularly forest conversion to agricultural land. In this study, the stream discharge of four small headwater catchments located within an area of 6 km2 in western ...
Digitizing Chart Recorder Data: Coordinate System Conversion for Rain Gauges and Similar Recording Instruments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Though chart recorder data are widely available for many environmental parameters over long periods of record, the nonorthogonal coordinate systems of many types of recorder charts complicates data extraction such that it ...
Potential Predictability of Regional Precipitation and Discharge Extremes Using Synoptic-Scale Climate Information via Machine Learning: An Evaluation for the Eastern Continental United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractCurrent generation general circulation models (GCMs) simulate synoptic-scale climate state variables such as geopotential heights, specific humidity, and integrated vapor transport (IVT) more reliably than mesoscale ...
Increasing Evapotranspiration from the Conterminous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent research suggests that evapotranspiration (ET) rates have changed over the past 50 years; however, some studies conclude ET has increased, and others conclude that it has decreased. These studies were indirect, using ...
