the most precise and simple method of evaporation measurement is application of pans in which class a pan is used in iran. in contrast, there are many empirical methods which are used for estimating the evapotraspiration. in this study, thornthwaite method was used due to the simplicity of its parameters and then we tried to use it for evaluating evapotranspiration by changing it's paramet...

Increases in timber demand and urban development in the Atlantic Coastal Plain over the past decade have motivated studies on the hydrology, water quality, and sustainable management of coastal plain watersheds. However, studies on baseline water budgets are limited for the low-lying, forested watersheds of the Atlantic Coastal Plain. The purpose of this study was to document the hydrology and ...

Çeşitli süreçlere bağlı olarak oluşup yeryüzünde yayılış gösteren iklim tiplerinin canlı yaşamı üzerinde önemli etkileri bulunmaktadır. Bu özelliği itibariyle yeryüzündeki tipleri, çeşitli sınıandırmalara tabi tutularak incelenmiştir. Yapılan sınıflandırmalarında birtakım analiz metotları ortaya konulmuştur. çalışmada, Şanlıurfa ilinin özellikleri belirlenirken Thornthwaite İklim Sınıflandırma...

Abstract Changes in streamflow across the western US illustrate a need to better understand how drought indices derived from climate data track streamflow. Three drought metrics, the (SPEI), and Palmer Drought Sever...

Environmental modeling frameworks support scientific model development by providing an Application Programming Interface (API) which model developers use to implement models. This paper presents results of an investigation on the framework invasiveness of environmental modeling frameworks. Invasiveness is defined as the quantity of dependencies between model code and the modeling framework. Thi...
