Evaluation of mean residence time in subsurface waters using oxygen-18 fluctuations during drought conditions in the mid-Appalachians

TL;DR: In this article, seasonal variations of the stable isotope, oxygen-18 ( 18 O), were used to estimate mean residence times (MRTs) of water in two Valley and Ridge Province watersheds in central Pennsylvania.

Sensitivity of stream temperatures in the United States to air temperatures projected under a global warming scenario

TL;DR: In this paper, a four-parameter nonlinear function of weekly air temperatures was used to project mean weekly stream temperature changes in response to global climate warming and for studies of freshwater ecosystems.

A GIS-based variable source area hydrology model

TL;DR: The Soil Moisture Routing model as mentioned in this paper is a daily water balance model that simulates the hydrology for watersheds with shallow sloping soils and combines elevation, soil, and land use data within the geographic information system GRASS.

Problems and potential of autocalibrating a hydrologic model

TL;DR: In this paper, an investigation was conducted to evaluate strengths and limitations of manual calibration and the existing autocalibration tool in the watershed-scale model referred to as the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT).

Autocalibration in hydrologic modeling: Using SWAT2005 in small-scale watersheds

TL;DR: Overall, SWAT2005 simulated the hydrology and the water quality constituents at the subwatershed-scale more adequately when all of the available observed data were used for model simulation as evidenced by statistical measure when both the autocalibration and manually adjusted parameters were used in the simulation.
