Abstract Forest disturbance threshold is defined as a critical disturbance level (e.g., % of forest cover change) in forested landscapes above which significant hydrological impacts are detected. Determining disturbance thresholds is critically important for supporting forest management to ensure the sustaining of ecological and hydrological functions....

Abstract With modern agricultural practices, it is essential to quantify flow and solute transport fluxes by numerical models and associated predictions. A major challenge in modeling preferential flow settings is the ability to constrain the often numerous parameters needed to physically represent these systems. Following this, there is a lack of...

Abstract In recent years, as a result of emerging renewable energy markets, several developed regions have already launched Real-Time Pricing (RTP) strategies for electricity markets. Establishing optimal pump operation for water companies in RTP electricity markets presents a challenging problem. In a RTP market, both positive and negative electricity...

Abstract Understanding coastal plane jets which occur when a body of water discharges into an ocean or a lake through a channel or outlet is important, since they play a significant role in sediment, nutrient, and pollutant exchange. This study investigates the nearfield of initially shallow, neutrally buoyant plane jets, bounded by a free surface...
