The state of groundwater systems worldwide is presently not well defined, and in particular there is little context for agencies responsible for managing water resources to evaluate occurrences of groundwater depletion against other cases globally. In this study, an initial inventory of...

Statistical analysis of parameters and residuals of conceptual hydrological models has received little effort in the hydrological research, certainly by orders of magnitude less than on many other problems like development and comparison of automatic calibration methods, optimisation algorithms,...

We use Mann–Kendall trend test and Lepage method to study spatial and temporal variations of the streamflow series over the past 50 years based on daily hydrologic data from six gauging stations in the Yellow River basin. Research results indicate that: (1) The streamflow of the Yellow River...

A growing number of investigations on uncertainty quantification for hydrological models have been widely reported in past years. However, limited studies are found on uncertainty assessment in simulating streamflow extremes so far. This article presents an intercomparison of uncertainty...

Uneven precipitation in space and time together with mismanagement and lack of knowledge about existing water resources, have caused water shortage problems for water supply to large cities and irrigation in many regions of China. There is an urgent need for the efficient use and regional...

This article describes investigationsinto the effects of climate change on flow regimes oftwenty-five catchments (from 6 to 1293 km<Superscript>2</Superscript>) incentral Sweden. Hydrological responses of fifteenhypothetical climate change scenarios (e.g.combinations of ΔT=+1, +2 and +4 °C andΔP=0, ± 10%, ± 20%) were...</superscript>

Global atmospheric general circulation models (GCMs) have been developed to simulate the present climate and used to predict future climatic change. While GCMs demonstrate significant skill at the continental and hemispheric spatial scales and incorporate a large proportion of the complexity of...

Scaling behaviors of the long daily streamflow series of four hydrological stations (Longchuan (1952–2002), Heyuan (1951–2002), Lingxia (1953–2002) and Boluo (1953–2002)) in the mainstream East River, one of the tributaries of the Pearl River (Zhujiang River) basin, were analyzed using...
