Journal ArticleDOI
Land use/land cover changes and climate: modeling analysis and observational evidence
Roger A. Pielke,Andrew J. Pitman,Dev Niyogi,Rezaul Mahmood,Clive McAlpine,Faisal Hossain,Kees Klein Goldewijk,Udaysankar S. Nair,Richard Betts,Souleymane Fall,Markus Reichstein,Pavel Kabat,Nathalie de Noblet +12 more
TL;DR: The authors summarizes the changes in landscape structure because of human land management over the last several decades, and using observed and model-eddata, documents how these changes have altered biogeophysical and biogeochemical surface fluxes on the local, mesoscale, and regional scales.
BookDOI
Satellite rainfall applications for surface hydrology
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a practical guide to a Space-Time Stochastic Error Model for Simulation of High-Resolution Satellite Rainfall Data, which is used in real-time decision support systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
A first approach to global runoff simulation using satellite rainfall estimation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a ballpark assessment of quasi-global runoff computed by incorporating satellite rainfall data and other remote sensing products in a relatively simple rainfall-runoff simulation approach: the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) runoff Curve Number (CN) method.
Journal ArticleDOI
An intercomparison of remote sensing river discharge estimation algorithms from measurements of river height, width, and slope
Michael Durand,Colin J. Gleason,Pierre-André Garambois,David M. Bjerklie,Laurence C. Smith,Hélène Roux,Hélène Roux,Ernesto Rodriguez,Paul D. Bates,Tamlin M. Pavelsky,Jerome Monnier,Xiao-Ming Chen,G. Di Baldassarre,J. M. Fiset,Nicolas Flipo,Renato Prata de Moraes Frasson,John W. Fulton,Nicole Goutal,Faisal Hossain,E. Humphries,J. T. Minear,Micah Mukolwe,Jeffrey Neal,Sophie Ricci,Brett F.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the possibility of estimating discharge in ungauged rivers using synthetic, daily "remote sensing" measurements derived from hydraulic models corrupted with minimal observational errors, and found at least one algorithm able to estimate instantaneous discharge to within 35% relative root-mean-squared error (RRMSE) on 14/16 nonbraided rivers despite out-ofbank flows, multichannel planforms, and backwater effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Influence of Large Dams on Surrounding Climate and Precipitation Patterns
Ahmed Mohamed Degu,Faisal Hossain,Dev Niyogi,Roger A. Pielke,J. Marshall Shepherd,Nathalie Voisin,Themis Chronis +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the spatial gradients of atmospheric variables related to precipitation formation are identified around the reservoir shoreline for 92 large dams of North America, and the authors report that large dams influence local climate most in Mediterranean, arid and semi-arid climates, while for humid climates the influence is least.
