چکیده
Isotopic tracer and temperature measurements at large volume cold springs in the central Oregon Cascades are used to understand the pattern of groundwater flow. Standard oxygen and hydrogen isotope interpretations are used to determine the mean recharge elevation for springs. Carbon and helium isotopes are used to measure the component of dissolved magmatic gas in the spring waters. Inferences from isotopic measurements are compared with temperature measurements made at the springs to determine whether groundwater circulates to shallow or deep depths in the subsurface. Integrating the measurements of tracers derived at the surface, tracers derived from the subsurface, and temperature measurements can thus be used to derive a three dimensional picture of groundwater flow. q 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

This study compares the accuracy of the short-term rainfall forecasts obtained with time-series analysis techniques, using past rainfall depths as the only input information. The techniques proposed here are linear stochastic auto-regressive movingaverage (ARMA) models, artificial neural networks (ANN) and the non-parametric nearest-neighbours method. The rainfall forecasts obtained using the c...

An interception model that links the temporal variability of rainfall with the storm-based description of the interception process is derived. Analytical formulae for long-term interception loss are obtained for precipitation with statistical characteristics derived from observations. The analysis of the results indicates that the point interception loss is controlled primarily by three time sc...

Trends in ̄ood and low ̄ows in the US were evaluated using a regional average Kendall's S trend test at two spatial scales and over two timeframes. Field signi®cance was assessed using a bootstrap methodology to account for the observed regional cross-correlation of stream ̄ows. Using a 5% signi®cance level, we found no evidence of trends in ̄ood ̄ows but did ®nd evidence of upward trends in low...

Formulation of an automatic calibration strategy for the MIKE 11/NAM rainfall–runoff model is outlined. The calibration scheme includes optimisation of multiple objectives that measure different aspects of the hydrograph: (1) overall water balance, (2) overall shape of the hydrograph, (3) peak flows, and (4) low flows. An automatic optimisation procedure based on the shuffled complex evolution ...

A Bayesian method is presented for the analysis of two types of sudden change at an unknown time-point in a sequence of energy inflows modeled by independent normal random variables. First, the case of a single shift in the mean level is revisited to show how such a problem can be straightforwardly addressed through the Bayesian framework. Second, a change in variability is investigated. In hyd...
