This study aims to assess the potential alterations in the hydrological regime attributed to projected climate change in one of the largest rivers in the Carpathian Area, the Mures River, and to estimate associated threats to riverine ecosystem. The eco-hydrological model, Soil and Water Integrated Model (SWIM), was applied on the Mures River basin, calibrated and validated against records at a...

Urbanization leads to the replacement of natural areas by impervious surfaces and affects the catchment hydrological cycle with adverse environmental impacts. Low impact development tools (LID) that mimic hydrological processes of natural areas have been developed and applied to mitigate these impacts. Hydrological simulations are one possibility to evaluate the LID performance but the associat...

[1] In a previous study (Hasan et al., 2006) we applied time series analysis and distributed hydrological modeling techniques to investigate the effect of hydrological processes on observed terrestrial gravity residuals. In this study we apply terrestrial gravity observations (measured in one location) to constrain simple hydrological models in a catchment around the gravimeter. A superconducti...

This study investigated the relationship between the hydrological response of a river basin to anticipated urbanisation and its subbasin characteristics by applying a hydrological model (HSPF) with land use scenarios generated by an urban growth model (LEAM). The hydrological model was set up and run for the Kishwaukee River basin in northeastern Illinois, USA. The results show that the subbasi...

changes in land use can significantly influence the hydrological cycle and hence affect water resources. understanding the impacts of land use changes on hydrology response at the watershed scale can facilitate development of sustainable water resources strategies. this paper investigates the hydrological effects of land use change in the zanjanroodbasinofiran, during last 40 years. the study r...

soil erosion is undoubtedly one of the most important problems in natural areas and has a devastating impact on grassland ecosystems. the present study was conducted to assess the ability of rangeland hydrology and erosion model for estimating sediment yield on rangeland’s hill slopes in dry regions at shahid noori paired watershed of kakhk. rhem is a mathematical, distribution and physical mod...
