[1] The seasonal, spatial, and latitudinal variability of precipitation (P), evapotranspiration (E), and runoff (R) are examined for large Arctic river basins and for the entire pan-Arctic domain usin...
[1] The prealpine Rietholzbach research catchment provides long-term continuous hydroclimatological measurements in northeastern Switzerland, including lysimeter evapotranspiration measurements since ...
[1] Large evaporation occurs over the Sudd wetland, a huge swamp located on the upper Nile. Historically, water resources planners have had the intention to reduce the Sudd evaporation by shortcut cha...
[1] In recent publications, a new basin-scale dataset of monthly variations in terrestrial water storage (BSWB) was derived for the ERA40 time period (1958–2002) using an atmospheric-terrestrial water...
[1] Heterogeneity in small-scale subsurface flow processes does not necessarily lead to complex system behavior at larger scales. Here we use the simple dynamical systems approach recently proposed by...
[1] Base flow, also known as low flow or drought flow, in a natural river system originates mainly from drainage of the riparian aquifers in the upstream basin. Base flow data can therefore provide a ...
[1] While continental water storage plays a key role in the Earth’s water, energy, and biogeochemical cycles, its temporal and spatial variations are poorly known, in particular, for large areas. This...
We studied the influence of the statistical properties of soil moisture changes on the Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) coherence and closure phase to determine whether the InSAR coher...
Water storage change has implications not only for the hydrological cycle, but also for sustainable water resource management in especially semi-arid river basins. Satellite/remote sensing techniques ...
Using monthly means for 1990-1999, we assess the systematic biases in temperature and humidity, and the surface energy and water budgets of both ERA-40, and the climate of the NASA-DAO atmospheric fin...
Total basin discharge is a critical component for the understanding of surface water exchange at the land–ocean interface. A continuous decline in the number of global hydrological stations over the p...
This study presents the first direct comparison of terrestrial water storage estimates from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission to in situ hydrological observations. ...
The total amount of water stored in a river basin affects streamflow at various timescales and defines the river basin's response to atmospheric forcing. For example, spring runoff in mountainous midl...
The temporal signature of terrestrial storage changes inferred from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) has been assessed by comparison with outputs from a calibrated hydrological mode...
The role of atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) horizontal resolution in representing the global energy budget and hydrological cycle is assessed, with the aim of improving the understanding ...
The analysis of the spatial-temporal variability of soil moisture can be carried out considering the absolute (original) soil moisture values or relative values, such as the percent of saturation or t...
Terrestrial water storage is an important component of the climate system as it determines the partitioning of the water and energy fluxes at the land surface. Since in situ measurements are scarce, t...
Summary The goal of this research is to quantify variations in both space and time of water stored in the terrestrial environment within South Carolina during and following a period of drought. We use...
Since 2000, the network of stations that make up the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (CHMI) has measured the soil moisture content at the 0- to 0.9-m layer using sensors placed within the natural ...
