Journal ArticleDOI

A distributed stream temperature model using high resolution temperature observations

TL;DR: In this article, a DTS (Distributed Temperature Sensing) system with a fiber optic cable of 1500 m was used to measure stream water temperature with 1 m resolution each 2 min.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of small reservoir storage capacities in a semi-arid environment: A case study in the Upper East Region of Ghana

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a simple method that allows the estimation of reservoir storage volumes as a function of their surface areas, based on an extensive bathymetrical survey that was conducted in the Upper East Region of Ghana.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility of soil moisture estimation using passive distributed temperature sensing

TL;DR: In this paper, a passive soil distributed temperature sensing (DTS) method is introduced as an experimental method of measuring soil moisture on the basis of DTS and several fiberoptic cables in a vertical profile are used as thermal sensors, measuring propagation of temperature changes due to the diurnal cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Model complexity control for hydrologic prediction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare three model complexity control methods for hydrologic prediction, namely, cross validation (CV), Akaike's information criterion (AIC), and structural risk minimization (SRM).
Journal ArticleDOI

Why hydrological predictions should be evaluated using information theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose to use information theory as the central framework to evaluate predictions and propose that calibration of models representing a hydrological system should be based on information-theoretical scores, because this allows extracting all information from the observations and avoids learning from information that is not there.
