Rainfall erosivity as a dynamic factor of soil loss by water erosion is modelled intra-annually for the first time at European scale. The development Erosivity Database Scale (REDES) and its 2015 update with extension to monthly component allowed develop seasonal R-factor maps assess rainfall both spatially temporally. During winter months, significant present only in part Mediterranean countries. A sudden increase occurs major Union (except basin, western Britain Ireland) May highest values...
Intermittent rivers are prevalent in many countries across Europe, but little is known about the temporal evolution of intermittence and its relationship with climate variability. Trend analysis annual seasonal number zero-flow days, maximum duration dry spells mean date events performed on a database 452 varying degrees between 1970 2010. The relationships flow investigated using standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) indices describing large-scale atmospheric...
As a follow up and an advancement of the recently published Rainfall Erosivity Database at European Scale (REDES) respective mean annual R-factor map, monthly aspect rainfall erosivity has been added to REDES. is crucial be considered resolution, for optimization land management (seasonal variation vegetation cover agricultural support practices) as well natural hazard protection (landslides flood prediction). We expanded REDES by 140 stations, thus covering areas where values were missing...
Abstract Runoff estimation is a key component in various hydrological considerations. Estimation of storm runoff especially important for the effective design hydraulic and road structures, flood flow management, as well analysis land use changes, i.e. urbanization or low impact development urban areas. The curve number (CN) method, developed by Soil Conservation Service (SCS) U.S. Department Agriculture predicting depth from ungauged catchments, has been continuous ca. 60 years. This method...
Abstract The aims of this study are: i) to better understand the coupled interactions between land use changes, climate change and aquatic ecosystem in a small agricultural catchment (<100 km 2 ) with long observation history (1963–2018) known history, ii) test available approaches separate impacts on water resources such catchment. pre- post-change periods have been separated based points history. Next, conceptual analytical were applied quantify distinguish changes annual runoff for...
Hydrological monitoring of daily discharge since 1966 in a small agricultural catchment the M&#322;awka River 66.2 km2, located macro-region North Mazovian Lowland, which is central part Vistula basin, have shown progressive decrease renewable water resources considered multiannual periods 1966&#8211;1990 and 1991&#8211;2020. With similar mean annual precipitation about 565 mm both periods, decreased by 15.6%, i.e. from 171 to 144 mm, respectively This corresponds flow (SSQ) 358...
Abstract. Urbanization and the resulting land-use change strongly affect water cycle runoff-processes in watersheds. Unfortunately, small urban watersheds, which are most affected by sprawl, mostly ungauged. This makes it intrinsically difficult to assess consequences of urbanization. Most all, is unclear how reliably predictive uncertainty given structural deficits applied models. In this study, we therefore investigate flood predictions ungauged basins from structurally uncertain...
Abstract. Streamflow cannot be measured directly and is typically derived with a rating curve model. Unfortunately, this causes uncertainties in the streamflow data also influences calibration of rainfall-runoff models if they are conditioned on such data. However, it currently unknown to what extent these propagate predictions. This study therefore presents quantitative approach rigorously consider impact prediction uncertainty water levels. The analysis performed within formal Bayesian...
Abstract Mulches have extraordinary potential in reducing surface runoff, increasing infiltration of water into the soil and decreasing erosion. The straw mulches as a biological material, has ability to be significant physical barrier against impact raindrops reduce detachment aggregates. present study is an attempt determine efficiency mulch conservation treatment changes splash erosion, time-to-runoff, runoff coefficient, time-to-drainage, drainage sediment concentration loss. laboratory...
River runoff is an important indicator of environmental changes, which usually include climate and/or land use and also the basis catchment water management. This study presents results monitoring analysis 48-year precipitation from a small agricultural located in central Poland. No changes that period have been reported. Mean monthly distributions for long-term showed July was wettest month respect drier one runoff, averaging 12.9% 5.2% their annual values, respectively. To evaluate trend...
Abstract Although the possibility of measuring and analysing all parts rainfall, infiltration, runoff, erosion process as a natural hydrologic cycle in field conditions is still one more unattainable goals hydrological sciences, it can be accomplished laboratory way to understand whole process. The initial moisture content most effective factors on soil responses. present research was conducted 2 m plot at slope 9% typical sandy-loam soil. effects processes were studied four levels (12, 25,...
The key components of a sedimentgraph prediction procedure for small agricultural catchments are outlined in the paper. An instantaneous unit (IUSG) based on IUH and dimensionless sediment concentration distribution is developed, used transforming produced during specified rainfall duration into sedimentgraph. Rainfall-runoff-suspended transport data from River Dart basin, Devon, UK, to evaluate several relationships yield estimation. relationship between lag time direct runoff hydrograph...
The variability of the curve number (CN) and retention parameter (S) Soil Conservation Service (SCS)-CN method in a small agricultural, lowland watershed (23.4 km2 to gauging station) central Poland has been assessed using probabilistic approach: distribution fitting confidence intervals (CIs). Empirical CNs Ss were computed directly from recorded rainfall depths direct runoff volumes. Two measures goodness fit used as selection criteria identification parent function. specified generalized...
Detention ponds constructed in urban areas should perform two major functions: reduce flood flows and improve quality of runoff by trapping sediments related pollutants. Providing tools for an efficient low data–demanding assessment pond performance can greatly support sediment management at the small catchment scale. This paper adopts approach a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) to model concentration stormwater outflow from detention located urbanized catchment. The is developed...
Climate-induced changes in small watersheds are still not well researched because long-term datasets usually missing for these watersheds. Such studies can, however, improve our understanding of the watershed response to climatic at such a scale being transparent. In this study, we investigate trends temperature, precipitation and river-flow characteristics watershed, typical Central Poland, with 53 years observations (1963–2015) using Mann-Kendall test. Particularly, examine whether any...
River intermittence was studied based on data from hydrological monitoring in Poland. We screened the entire state database and two another sources applying criterion for zero-flow event: discharge less than 0.0005 m 3∙s –1, found five intermittent rivers with catchment area 9.2 to 303.7 km 2. aimed at finding associations between climatic driving forces (temperature precipitation), anthropogenic activity. used Spearman correlation coefficient, circular statistics, statistical tests trend....
Flood recovery is an important period in the flood risk management cycle. Recently, has become viewed as opportunity for future damage mitigation. Financial flows to cover damages and rules regarding their allocation are crucial supporting or undermining mitigation efforts. In this paper, we map compare state funding so-called Visegrad Group Countries (V4), i.e. Czechia, Hungary, Poland Slovakia, over past 30 years of democratic history. We apply a qualitative comparative approach identify...
