the aim of this study was the analysis of discharge variations of two rivers i.e. qezelozan and shahroud, regarding the sustainable rice production in guilan province. to achieve this purpose four trend analysis tests including sen, mann-kendall, linear regression and spearman were used. in this study, river discharge data of 49 and 37 years for respectively qezelozan and shahroud rivers were u...

New estimates of freshwater discharge from continents were derived using stream-flow records from the world's largest 921 rivers, supplemented with estimates of discharge from unmonitored areas based on the ratios of runoff and drainage area between the unmonitored and monitored regions. The farthest downstream river-flow data were extrapolated to the river mouth using river transport model sim...

[1] Surface water elevation profiles for a reach of the Ohio River were produced by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory Instrument Simulator to represent satellite measurements representative of those that would be observed by awide swath altimeter being considered jointly by U.S. and European space agencies. The Ensemble Kalman filter with a river hydrodynamics model as its dynamical core was used t...

The present investigation deals with the zooplanktons together with water quality of Panchganga river, in Kolhapur city, Maharashtra. This investigation was undertaken fora period of one year. The river Panchganga is a highly contaminated downstream with untreated sewage and industrial effluents, while flowing through Kolhapur city. The high value of CO2, BOD, COD, phosphate, nitrate, Zn, Fe, C...

A flexible mesh hydrodynamic model was developed to simulate flooding of the LaHave River watershed in Nova Scotia, Canada, from the combined effects of fluvial discharge and ocean tide and surge conditions. The analysis incorporated high-resolution lidar elevation data, bathymetric river and coastal chart data, and river cross-section information. These data were merged to generate a seamless ...

Changes in river discharge due to human activities and climate change would affect the sustainability of freshwater ecosystems. To globally assess how changes in river discharge will affect the future status of freshwater ecosystems, global-scale hydrological simulations need to be connected with a model to estimate the durability of freshwater ecosystems. However, the development of this speci...

Stormwater river plumes are important vectors of marine contaminants and pathogens in the Southern California Bight. Here we report the results of a multi-institution investigation of the river plumes across eight major river systems of southern California. We used in situ water samples from multi-day cruises in combination with MODIS satellite remote sensing, buoy meteorological observations, ...
