‘As simple as possible but not simpler’: What is useful in a temperature-based snow-accounting routine? Part 2 – Sensitivity analysis of the Cemaneige snow accounting routine on 380 catchments

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple, parsimonious and general snow accounting routine (SAR), called Cemaneige, was proposed to simulate discharge at the catchment scale, where five basic features provided a good reliability and robustness to the SAR, namely, a transition range of temperature for the determination of the solid fraction of precipitation; five altitudinal bands of equal area for snow accumulation; the cold-content of the snowpack (with a parameter controlling snowpack inertia); a degree-day factor controlling snowmelt; uneven snow distribution in each band.

Assessment of Future Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources of Upper Sind River Basin, India Using SWAT Model

TL;DR: In this article, a study has been conducted to assess future climate change impacts on water resources of the Upper Sind River Basin using Soil Water Assessment Tool Sequential uncertainty fitting (SUFI-2) algorithm has been applied for model calibration and uncertainty analysis Monthly observed stream flows matched well with simulated flows with respect to p-factor, d-factor and correlation coefficient and Nash-Sutcliffe coefficients with values of 073, 042, 082, 080 during calibration (1992-2000) and 042- 036, 096, 093 during validation (2001-

Mechanistic Simulation of Tree Effects in an Urban Water Balance Model1

TL;DR: In this article, a semidistributed, physical-based Urban Forest Effects - Hydrology (UFORE-Hydro) model was created to simulate and study tree effects on urban hydrology and guide management of urban runoff at the catchment scale.

Using satellite altimetry data to augment flow estimation techniques on the Mekong River

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used retracked waveforms from ERS-2 and ENVISAT along the Mekong to estimate discharges at a downstream site (Nakhon Phanom (NP)) assuming that in situ data are available at a site 400 km upstream (Vientiane).

Role of surface‐water and groundwater interactions on projected summertime streamflow in snow dominated regions: An integrated modeling approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a calibrated, integrated surface and groundwater model was used to simulate climate impacts on surface water/groundwater interactions using 12 general circulation model projections of temperature and precipitation from 2010 to 2100, and evaluate the interplay between snowmelt timing and other hydrologic variables, including streamflow, groundwater recharge, storage, groundwater discharge, and evapotranspiration.
