TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), a physically based distributed hydrologic model, to assess the impact of land use and climate changes separately.

TL;DR: In this article, the soil moisture contents (SMC) and hydraulic conductivities (K) along four karst hillslopes were measured in situ by time domain reflectometry and the Guelph Permeameter, respectively, at test plots, each of which has a different vegetative cover, landform, land surface slope, soil property and content of rock fragment.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the trends of annual precipitation and explored the changes of two indices: the precipitation concentration index (PCI) and the concentration index(CI) which are designed for measuring seasonality and daily heterogeneity, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors deployed sensor technology at five sites to generate autonomously high-resolution time series of discharge and NO3−−N in a farmed karst catchment in Southwestern China.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial and temporal patterns of precipitation concentration in the upper reaches of the Huai River, China, were investigated using two indices: the precipitation concentration index (PCI) and the concentration index(CI) for measuring seasonality and daily heterogeneity using monthly and daily precipitation series, respectively.
