In the present study, the impact of watershed management practices on flood hydrograph characteristics was investigated using HEC-HMS model. In order to design, calibrate, and validate the model, data from a representative paired watershed (Kakhk Watershed, Khorasan Razavi Province, Iran) was collected and field surveys were performed to have the dataset further completed. Results of paired sam...

Due to the lack of necessary equipment for measuring and recording changes in watershed runoff and flood situation after the implementation of corrective actions, using hydrologic models is considered as an efficient tool to assess the undertaken actions and simulate the behavior of the watershed before and after the implementation of these measures. The present study aimed to simulate the effe...

Droughts are extreme phenomena that are described based on the characteristics of continuity in time and according to their spatial effects and can occur in any climatic situation. Recognition and behavior of droughts, which are closely and directly related to water resources management, are of particular importance. The main purpose of this study is to assess the risk of drought using Copula f...
