"With the rapid development of Chinese urbanization in the 21 century, "urban diseases" become more serious, mainly manifested in water environmental pollution, urban flooding, water shortage, and deterioration of water ecology. It is necessary to establish a modern rainwater ma…

A simple water balance model was applied to a micro-catchment water harvesting system for a semi-arid area in the North-Eastern part of Jordan. Two Negarim micro-catchment water harvesting systems were built at Al-Khanasri research station. A Randomized complete block design (RC…
Every year, coastal disasters such as hurricanes and floods claim hundreds of lives and severely damage homes, businesses, and lifeline infrastructure. This research was motivated by the 2005 Hurricane Katrina disaster, which devastated the Mississippi and Louisiana Gulf Coast. …
Efforts to understand and to quantify the interplay between precipitation, runoff, and recharge are often hampered by the paucity of appropriate monitoring systems. We developed methodologies for rainfall-runoff and groundwater recharge computations that heavily rely on observat…
All hydrological processes are affected by the spatial variability of the physical parameters of the watershed, and also by human intervention on the landscape. The water outflow from a watershed strictly depends on the spatial and temporal variabilities of the physical paramete…
Depression storage can be a significant storage element on a watershed surface, accounting for the retention of much water. This research was undertaken to investigate effects of surface storage elements on catchment response at a range of spatial scales and experimental setting…
Scope and methods of study. (1) Scale effects on phosphorus (P) loss and runoff depth from pastures were investigated by summarizing water quality data from 19 research projects. Spatial (area) and temporal (days after litter application) scales ranged from 0.5 to 80000 m2 and 1…
Nonpoint P sources from the agricultural landscape are a significant environmental problem for surface water bodies due to the promotion of eutrophication. Many states have developed P assessment tools to help differentiate land uses and their potential for P losses to surface w…
Mountain watersheds are characterized by extreme spatial and temporal variability in processes, making runoff modeling in such settings especially challenging. Fire adds even further variability to runoff dynamics by inducing several highly spatially variable changes in the wate…
Bayesian neural network (BNN) is introduced as an effective hydrological modeling tool for climate change impact study on water resources with uncertainty estimates. Uncertainty in climate change impact study comes from various sources of climate, downscaling, and rainfall-runof…
&Quot;Groundwater and Surface Water Pollution contains almost all the technical know-how required to clean up our water supply. It provides a survey of technologies for remediation, as well as a step-by-step guide to pollution assessment for both ground and surface waters."…
