Sediment transfer and the hydrological cycle of Himalayan rivers in Nepal

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analysis of daily water discharge and suspended sediment concentration measurements for the three main drainage basins in Nepal, on the basis of recent published papers, and propose a new conceptual model for the mobilization and transportation of material within the monsoonal discharge cycle in the central Himalayas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is the Dupuit assumption suitable for predicting the groundwater seepage area in hillslopes

TL;DR: In this article, the validity of the Dupuit solution depends not only on the ratio of depth to hillslope length d/L, but also on the hydraulic conductivity to recharge K/R and on the topographic slope s.
Journal ArticleDOI

An inverse problem methodology to identify flow channels in fractured media using synthetic steady-state head and geometrical data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a methodology for identifying highly-localized flow channels embedded in a significantly less permeable medium using steady-state head and geometrical data, which takes advantage of the hierarchical flow organization to restrict the dimension of the solution space of each individual optimization step.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance of automated methods for flash flood inundation mapping: a comparison of a digital terrain model (DTM) filling and two hydrodynamic methods

TL;DR: In this paper, a digital terrain model (DTM) filling approach (height above nearest drainage/Manning-Strickler or HAND/MS) and two hydrodynamic methods (caRtino 1D and Floodos 2D) are used to estimate the flooded areas of three major flash floods observed during the last 10 years in southeastern France, i.e., the 15 June 2010 flooding of the Argens river and its tributaries (585 km of river reaches), the 3 October 2015 flooding of small coastal rivers of the French Riviera
Journal ArticleDOI

Timescales of regional circulation of saline fluids in continental crystalline rock aquifers (Armorican Massif, western France)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the horizontal and vertical distributions of moderately saline fluids sampled at depths ranging from 41 to 200 m in crystalline rock aquifers on the regional scale of the Armorican Massif (northwestern France).
