Automatic content‐based georeferencing of historical topographic maps
(Transactions in GIS, 2021-08-30)Old maps are more than a cultural artefact: they are data. Data about the past still hold value for science and decision‐making today. Libraries and archives have come a long way in digitising their inventories of thousands, ... -
An extremeness threshold determines the regional response of floods to changes in rainfall extremes
(Communications Earth & Environment, 2021-08-26)Precipitation extremes will increase in a warming climate, but the response of flood magnitudes to heavier precipitation events is less clear. Historically, there is little evidence for systematic increases in flood magnitude ... -
When does risk become residual? A systematic review of research on flood risk management in West Africa
(Regional Environmental Change, 2021-08-25)Flood events in West Africa have devastating impacts on the lives of people. Additionally, developments such as climate change, settlement expansion into flood-prone areas, and modification of rivers are expected to increase ... -
Role of reservoir regulation and groundwater feedback in a simulated ground‐soil‐vegetation continuum: A long‐term regional scale analysis
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-08-23)The regional terrestrial water cycle is strongly altered by human activities. Among them, reservoir regulation is a way to spatially and temporally allocate water resources in a basin for multi‐purposes. However, it is ... -
Systematic Evaluation of Geometry‐Driven Lateral River‐Groundwater Exchange in Floodplains
(Water Resources Research, 2021-08-21)The widening and narrowing of river‐valley aquifers can cause valley‐scale lateral hyporheic exchange even if the river is straight and its slope is uniform. For the aforementioned system, we derive a semi‐analytical ... -
The effect of natural disasters on FDI attraction: a sector-based analysis over time and space
(Natural Hazards, 2021-08-21)Extensive research has addressed the question of why some countries are able to attract a large amount of foreign direct investment (FDI), while others are not. Until now, this research mostly neglected natural disasters ... -
Urban pluvial flood adaptation: Results of a household survey across four German municipalities
(Journal of Flood Risk Management, 2021-07-24)In recent years, German cities were heavily impacted by pluvial flooding and related damage is projected to increase due to climate change and urbanisation. It is important to ask how to improve urban pluvial flood risk ... -
Women advancing research on hydrological processes: Preface
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-07-13)The Special Issue (SI) of Hydrological Processes features invited contributions led by women scientists at an advanced career stage who have made sustained contributions to the study of hydrological processes, advancing ... -
Seasonal and Mesoscale Variability of the Two Atlantic Water Recirculation Pathways in Fram Strait
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2021-06-25)Atlantic Water (AW), which is transported northward by the West Spitsbergen Current (WSC), partly recirculates (i.e., turns westward) in Fram Strait. This determines how much heat and salt reaches the Arctic Ocean, and how ... -
Hydrological modelling for assessing spatio‐temporal groundwater recharge variations in the water‐stressed Amathole Water Supply System, Eastern Cape, South Africa
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-06-23)Abstract To increase the resilience of regional water supply systems in South Africa in the face of anticipated climatic changes and a constant increase in water demand, water supply sources require diversification. Many ... -
Rivers in the making; the definition of “Nahr” as a hybrid watercourse based on geoarchaeological evidence from Southwestern Iran
(Water History, 2021-06-21)This paper explores a new perspective to study the settlement dynamics of riverine landscapes by addressing human–environment interaction in the Ancient Near East through integration of remote sensing, new geodata, and ... -
Flood hazard mapping for data-scarce and ungauged coastal river basins using advanced hydrodynamic models, high temporal-spatial resolution remote sensing precipitation data, and satellite imageries
(Natural Hazards, 2021-06-16)This paper presents an integrated approach to simulate flooding and inundation for small- and medium-sized coastal river basins where measured data are not available or scarce. By coupling the rainfall–runoff model, the ... -
The effect of stream shading on the inflow characteristics in a downstream reservoir
(River Research and Applications, 2021-06-14)In thermally stratified reservoirs, inflows form density currents according to the interplay between inflow temperature and reservoir stratification. The temperature of inflowing water is affected by catchment properties, ... -
Modellierung der Strömungsdynamik in einem revitalisierten Küstenmoorgebiet an der Ostsee
(Grundwasser, 2021-06-14)Küstennahe Niedermoore wurden durch den Menschen verändert, bspw. durch das Anlegen von Entwässerungsgräben, dem Bau von Küstenschutzdeichen oder aktuell einer Renaturierung. Außerdem ist es wichtig die komplexe Interaktion ... -
From consumer to enterprise grade: How the choice of four UAS impacts point cloud quality
(Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2021-06-10)Uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), combined with structure‐from‐motion photogrammetry, has already proven to be very powerful for a wide range of geoscience applications and different types of UAS are used for scientific and ... -
Dissolved Organic Matter in the Upwelling System off Peru: Imprints of Bacterial Activity and Water Mass Characteristics
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2021-06-09)Microbial degradation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) contributes to the formation and preservation of oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) in the ocean, but information on the spatial distribution and molecular composition of ... -
FRIS Revisited in 2018: On the Circulation and Water Masses at the Filchner and Ronne Ice Shelves in the Southern Weddell Sea
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2021-05-28)The Filchner‐Ronne Ice Shelf (FRIS) is characterized by moderate basal melt rates due to the near‐freezing waters that dominate the wide southern Weddell Sea continental shelf. We revisited the region in austral summer ... -
The HydroEcoSedimentary tool: An integrated approach to characterise interstitial hydro‐sedimentary and associated ecological processes
(River Research and Applications, 2021-05-26)Increased deposition of fine sediments in rivers and streams affects a range of key ecosystem processes across the sediment–water interface, and it is a critical aspect of river habitat degradation and restoration. ... -
Where and Why Do Submarine Canyons Remain Connected to the Shore During Sea‐Level Rise? Insights From Global Topographic Analysis and Bayesian Regression
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2021-05-21)The efficiency of sediment routing from land to the ocean depends on the position of submarine canyon heads with regard to terrestrial sediment sources. We aim to identify the main controls on whether a submarine canyon ... -
Lateral terrestrial water flow contribution to summer precipitation at continental scale – A comparison between Europe and West Africa with WRF‐Hydro‐tag ensembles
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-05-19)It is well accepted that summer precipitation can be altered by soil moisture condition. Coupled land surface – atmospheric models have been routinely used to quantify soil moisture – precipitation feedback processes. ...
