Brutsaert Parlange Symposium Photo Album
(The Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)This is a photo album of candid images associated with this Brutsaert ParlangeSymposium. Color photographs were provided by Brian Richards, Cathelijine Stoof, Jeanette Little, Remko Uijlenhoet, J. Robert Cooke, Peter ... -
I1. Inferring Species-Richness and Species-turnover by Statistical Multiresolution Texture Analysis of Satellite Imagery
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)The quantification of species-richness and turnover is one of the most important tasks in monitoring ecosystems. This is both for guaranteeing ecosystem function, and to understand the linkages between natural and human ... -
A1. Landslide Patterns as Fingerprints of Climate Change and Basin Scale Integrated Risk
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)Landslides are extremely important geomorphic events which sculpt river basin ecosystems by eroding hillslopes and providing sediments to coastal areas. However, at the same time landslides are hazardous events for ... -
I4. Irrigation Area Suitability Mapping by Multi-criteria Evaluation Technique for the Case of Lake Tana Basin, Upper Blue Nile, Ethiopia
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)The study was carried out in the Lake Tana Basin, the upper portion of the Blue Nile Basin in Ethiopia. It has a total catchment area of around 15,000 km2, of which the lake covers approximately 3,060 km2 at an average ... -
I3. Hydrological Modeling Where No Meteorological Stations Exist
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)An important characteristic of hydrological is the need for accurate forcing data, such as precipitation and temperature. Acquiring precipitation and temperature gauge data poses a variety of chal¬lenges, not least the ... -
I2. Early Results of the Soil Moisture Active Passive Marena Oklahoma In Situ Sensor Testbed (SMAP-MOISST)
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)The Soil Moisture Active Passive Mission (SMAP) is an upcoming NASA mission to monitor surface soil moisture. Key to the success of this mission is the calibration and validation of the resulting product. As part of the ... -
H1. A Surface PIV Approach for the Remote Monitoring of Mean and Turbulent Flow: Properties in an Open Channel
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)In an effort to develop a reliable, continuous and efficient method of remotely monitoring mean velocities, water column turbulence levels and bathymetry, a surface PIV (particle image velocimetry) experiment is conducted ... -
G1. Can Stream Baseflow be Augmented Through Stormwater Infiltration? The Case of Minnehaha Creek Watershed
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)Coursing nearly 21 miles from its origin at Lake Minnetonka to its confluence with the Mississippi River, Minnehaha Creek is among the most valued surface water features of the Twin Cities area and attracts roughly half a ... -
F4. Country-Wide Rainfall Maps from a Commercial Cellular Telephone Network
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)Accurate rainfall observations with high spatial and temporal resolutions are needed for many applications, for instance, as input for hydrological models. Weather radars often provide data with sufficient spatial and ... -
F3. Hydrology in a Dutch Polder Catchment: Natural Processes in a Man-Made Landscape
(Internet-First University Press, 2012-05)Experimental catchments are traditionally located in areas with limited human influence, but the societal and financial losses due to hydrological extremes are often larger in more densely populated areas. In The Netherlands ...
