Modeling of Andean Páramo Ecosystems’ Hydrological Response to Environmental Change
In the Peruvian Andes, water infiltration from tropical wetlands, called páramo, generates headwaters for downstream rivers. The hydrological processes of these wetlands are not well understood within the larger hydrological system, impeding efforts to mitigate the rapid environmental changes anticipated due to regional population growth and climate change. This study constructed and calibrated...
متن کاملHydrological simulation and prediction for environmental change
A strong environmental change has been recognized in China with the impacts of climate change and intensive human activities on land use. In this paper, first environmental changes in China, such as those caused by human activities, land use, climate change, and social and economic development, are presented. Secondly, the hydrological prediction models and systems and their application in Chin...
متن کاملHydrological Response to Human Activities and Climate Change in the Ghaleh-Shahrokh Watershed
Determining the relative contributions of human activities and climate change to variations of runoff in basin is very important for sustainable management of water resources. In this study, seven methods were used to determine these relative contributions in the Ghaleh-Shahrokh watershed as the main upper catchment of Zayandeh-Roud River. These seven methods can be divided into two main catego...
متن کاملTools for Teaching Hydrological and Environmental Modeling
Being able to work with mathematical models of hydrological and environmental systems becomes increasingly important for students of civil and environmental engineering departments. Courses or course sections teaching the specific skills needed are slowly making their way into the curriculum. This paper discusses the requirements for tools to teach these topics. Two example tools for model iden...
متن کاملEvaluating Hydrological Response to Forecasted Land-use Change
It is currently possible to measure landscape change over large areas and determine trends in environmental condition using advanced space-based technologies accompanied by geospatial analyses of the remotely sensed data. There are numerous earth-observing satellite platforms for mapping and monitoring land cover and land-cover change; however, the traditional workhorses have been the Landsat M...
