Abstract Realistic projections of the future climate and how this translates to water availability is crucial for sustainable resource management. However, data constrains capacity simulate streamflow corresponding hydrological processes. Developing more robust models methods that can circumvent need large amounts hydro‐climatic support water‐related decisions, particularly in developing countries. In study, we use natural isotope tracers addition hydro‐climate within a newly developed...
Abstract Quantitative estimations of ecohydrological water partitioning into evaporation and transpiration remains mostly based on plot‐scale investigations that use well‐instrumented, small‐scale experimental catchments in temperate regions. Here, we attempted to upscale adapt the conceptual tracer‐aided ecohydrology model STARRtropics simulate partitioning, tracer, storage dynamics over daily time steps a 1‐km grid larger‐scale (2565 km 2 ) sparsely instrumented tropical catchment Costa...
Abstract. Streamflow simulation across the tropics is limited by lack of data to calibrate and validate large-scale hydrological models. Here, we applied process-based, conceptual HYPE (Hydrological Predictions for Environment) model quantitatively assess Costa Rica's water resources at a national scale. Data scarcity was compensated using adjusted global topography remotely sensed climate products force, calibrate, independently evaluate model. We used temperature product bias-corrected...
Abstract Tracer‐aided rainfall‐runoff modelling is a promising tool for understanding catchment hydrology, particularly when tracers provide information about coupled hydrological‐biogeochemical processes. Such models allow predicting the quality and quantity of water under changing climatic anthropogenic conditions. Here, we present Spatially‐distributed Tracer‐Aided Rainfall‐Runoff model with biogeochemical reactive tracer module (STARR‐DOC) to simulate dissolved organic carbon (DOC)...
Abstract Regional groundwater recharge (GWR) is crucial to improving water management strategies; however, the lack of available data constrains its computation. Here, a practical approach using remote sensing and global hydrological products was implemented estimate regional GWR in Basin Mexico, ~9,000-km 2 basin central Mexico with population ~25 million people, where represents most important source. The soil–water-balance (SWB) model applied from 2000 2021 four setups, including...

Abstract. Precipitation undergoes a two-step partitioning when it falls on the land surface. At surface and in shallow subsurface, rainfall or snowmelt can either runoff as infiltration/saturation excess quick subsurface flow. The rest will be stored temporarily root zone. From zone, water leave catchment evapotranspiration percolate further recharge deep storage. It was recently shown that an index of vegetation use efficiency, Horton (HI), could predict storage dynamics. Here we test this...
Water issues in Mexico City have been severe during the last years due to population increase, forcing external water sources meet demands. This research aims evaluate evolution of vulnerability sixteen municipalities 2005, 2010, and 2015. has increased decades combination several problems such as lack maintenance infrastructure (eg. leaks), aquifer overexploitation, uncontrolled city growth, rainwater wastewater expelled from basin without intention using it. For assessment we used a...

Abstract Isotope‐enabled models provide a means to generate robust hydrological simulations. However, daily isotope‐enabled rainfall‐runoff applied larger spatial scales (>100 km 2 ) require more input data than conventional non‐isotope in the form of precipitation isotope time series, which are difficult even with point station measurements. Spatially distributed can be circumvented by climate models. Here, we evaluate simulations J2000‐isotope enabled model driven from corrected and...

Evaporation (E) and transpiration (Tr) are the key terrestrial water fluxes to atmosphere highly sensitive land cover change. These ecohydrological can be measured directly only at small scales, such as individual plants or under laboratory experiments. Modelling is needed upscale E Tr estimates plot, hillslope catchment scales. However, model-derived partitioning of ambiguous, particularly when models trained using hydrometric data soil moisture. To test influence different types (i.e., sap...
Massive development of unconventional resources using hydraulic fracturing (HF) procedures, has been carried out since the last three decades, with focus on Texas, USA, including Eagle Ford (EF) play. International concerns have raised regarding water and environmental impacts closely related to shale production. The aim this paper is map spatio-temporal trends HF (water use well density) examining entire production period in EF. We used FracFocus as main source information, from 2009 2017....
<p><span>An intensification of water use for hydraulic fracturing (HF) to extract oil and gas from deep shale formations has been observed during the last years across USA, increasing concerns about resources management in water-limited regions around world. At same time, HF associated several environmental quality/quantity impacts many developed plays China Canada, nevertheless, assessing on emergent involves difficulties since future development is generally...
The increasing trend on water use for hydraulic fracturing (HF) in multiple plays across the U.S. has raised need to improve HF management model. Such approaches require good quality datasets, particularly stressed regions. In this work, we presented a QA/QC framework data using multivariate outlier detection methodology based five univariate techniques: two interquartile ranges at 95 and 90% (PCTL95, PCTL90), median absolute deviation (MAD) Z-score with thresholds of three times standard...
