Abstract Using the outlier robust extreme learning machine (ORELM) method, discharge coefficient of side weirs placed on rectangular and trapezoidal canals was simulated for first time in this study. The parameters governing including Froude number (Fr), ratio weir length to main channel ( L/b ), flow depth at upstream width y 1 / b ) crest height W L/y wall slope parameter m were initially det...

Abstract Rainfall–runoff models are valuable tools for flood forecasting, management of water resources, and drought warning. With the advancement in space technology, a plethora satellite precipitation products (SPPs) available publicly. However, application data data-driven rainfall–runoff model is emerging requires careful investigation. In this work, two rainfall sets, namely Global Precipi...

Previous work on Gammarus duebeni from brackish and fresh waters established that a correlation exists between certain features of sodium regulation and the sodium concentration of the particular habitat occupied by a population. In populations from fresh water sodium losses in the urine are reduced and the transporting system at the body surface has a higher affinity for sodium ions (Sutcliffe...

The NRCS-CN method, integrated with GIS and remote sensing, can be used for estimating curve numbers (CN) surface runoff in geohydrological systems. study area is divided into 63 sub-basins, the land use cover (LULC)-hydrologic soil group (HSG) complex identified each sub-basin. CN values three antecedent moisture (AMC) conditions are calculated corrected slope variations. depth determined usin...

For the case of 4 points in Euclidean space, we present a computer aided proof of Conjectures II and III made by Atiyah and Sutcliffe regarding Atiyah’s determinant along with an elegant factorization of the square of the imaginary part of Atiyah’s determinant.

Quantifying the long term impacts of climate and land cover change on streamflow is of great important for sustainable water resources management in inland river basins. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was employed to simulate the streamflow in the upper reaches of Heihe River Basin, northwestern China, over the last half century. The Sequential Uncertainty Fitting algorithm (SU...
