Hydraulic property measurements often rely on non-linear inversion models whose errors vary between samples. In non-linear physical measurement systems, bias can be directly quantified and removed using calibration standards. In hydrologic systems, field calibration is often infeasible and bias...

Over the past century, there is an increased contribution of non climatic factors to the flood formation processes in the Kura River. Non climatic factors of floods refer to factors that are related to reductions in channel capacity and result in floods. More recently, there are numerous non...

In this work an attempt is made to compare experimental soil moisture profiles for a horizontal infiltration experiment (Poulovassilis, Water Resour Res 13:369–374, <CitationRef CitationID="CR16">1977</CitationRef>) with calculated profiles. These calculated profiles are obtained variously through the use of the computation code of...</citationref>

Stormwater filters are widely used in stormwater management, sometimes as standalone structures (e.g. stormwater filter beds), or as part of porous pavements, soak ways, infiltration basins and trenches. Due to the high levels of sediment present in stormwater, clogging is the main operational...
