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…

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…
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…
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…
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…
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. …
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…
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…
