TL;DR: In this article, the Budyko framework was used to model water balance at four temporal scales (mean annual, annual, monthly and daily) to predict streamflow for ungauged catchments in Australia.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of climate variability and human activities on runoff in the Haihe River basin from 1957 to 2000 were quantitatively evaluated with the help of three methods and based on the assumption that climate and human activity are the only drivers for streamflow and are independent of each other.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for regional frequency analysis and spatio-temporal pattern characterization of rainfall-extreme regimes (i.e. extremes, durations and timings) in the Pearl River Basin (PRB) using the well-known L-moments approach together with advanced statistical tests including stationarity test and serial correlation check, which are crucial to the valid use of Lmoments for frequency analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors made estimates of external water use, the total water use outside home (e.g. on lawns, gardens, or swimming pools) for 397 households in detached housing in Perth, WA.

TL;DR: In this article, a nonparametric kernel smoothing method is employed in this merging strategy with emphasis on discontinuity correction and spatial interpolation adapting for sparse design, and a cross-validation study was undertaken to blend observations from the Australian raingauge network and satellite derived TRMM Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) 3B42.
