Core Ideas OZCAR is a network of sites studying the critical zone. covers various disciplines. will help disciplines to work together for better representation and modeling The French zone initiative, called (Observatoires de la Zone Critique–Application et Recherche or Critical Observatories–Application Research) National Research Infrastructure (RI). OZCAR‐RI instrumented sites, bringing 21 pre‐existing research observatories monitoring different compartments situated between “the rock...
Flash floods are natural phenomena with environmental, social and economic impacts. To date, few numerical models able to simulate hydrological processes at catchment scale a reasonable time describe flash events accurate details. Considering ~810 km2 Mediterranean river coastal basin (southwestern France) as study case, the objective of present was assess ability sub-daily module lumped Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) discharge (1) time-continuously, by testing two sub-basin delineation...
Abstract Intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams (IRES) are now recognized to support specific freshwater biodiversity ecosystem services represent approximately half of the global river network, a fraction that is likely increase in context changes. Despite large research efforts on IRES during past few decades, there need for developing systemic approach considers their hydrological, hydrogeological, hydraulic, ecological, biogeochemical properties processes, as well interactions with...
Sediment deposits in North African catchments contribute to around 2%–5% of the yearly loss water storage capacity dams. Despite its semi-arid climate, Tafna River plays an important role Algeria’s self-sufficiency. There is continuous pressure on Tafna’s dams respond demand for water. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used evaluate contribution different compartments basin surface dams’ impact sediment flux sea order develop reservoir management. hydrological modelling fitted...
Abstract Lack of access to clean water and adequate sanitation continues be a major brake on development. Here we present the results 12-month investigation into dynamics Escherichia coli , commonly used indicator faecal contamination in supplies, three small, rural catchments Laos, Thailand Vietnam. We show that land use hydrology are controlling factors E. concentrations streamwater relative importance these two varies between dry wet seasons. In all catchments, highest were observed...
Background The global burden of diarrhea is a leading cause morbidity and mortality worldwide. In montane areas South-East Asia such as northern Laos, recent changes in land use have induced increased runoff, soil erosion in-stream suspended sediment loads, potential pathogen dissemination. To our knowledge, few studies related incidences to catchment scale hydrological factors river discharge, loads Fecal Indicator Bacteria (FIB) Escherichia coli, together with sociological hygiene...
Abstract. Machine learning has shown great promise for simulating hydrological phenomena. However, the development of machine-learning-based models requires advanced skills from diverse fields, such as programming and modeling. Additionally, data pre-processing post-processing when training testing machine are a time-intensive process. In this study, we developed python-based framework that simplifies process building automates model results. Pre-processing utilities assist in incorporating...
Summary According to the European Union Water Framework Directive, river basin management plans must include a programme of measures, with series actions aiming achieve good ecosystem status all water bodies within basin. The design and later prioritization these is, in theory, done through cost‐effectiveness analysis ( CEA ), which compares action costs expected improvements status. However, such an approach does not consider effects on human well‐being resulting from changes provision...
Non-perennial rivers and streams are ubiquitous. Nonetheless, our understanding of their hydrological patterns is minimal. Hydrological models powerful tools to study characterize patterns, but few can simulate extremes such as non-flow events. We aimed capture accurately the flow intermittency spatial temporal in a Mediterranean river basin with restructured Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT+). calibrated model using multi-objective optimization algorithm data from two gauging stations...
Microbial water quality lies in the nexus of human, animal, and environmental health. Multidisciplinary efforts are under way to understand how microbial can be monitored, predicted, managed. This special collection papers Journal Environmental Quality was inspired by idea creating a section containing panoramic view advances challenges arena research. It addresses various facets health‐related microorganism release, transport, survival environment. The analyze spatiotemporal variability...
In the basin of Mekong, over 70 million people rely on unimproved surface water for their domestic requirements. Surface is often contaminated with fecal matter and yet little information exists underlying mechanisms contamination in tropical conditions at large watershed scales. Our objectives were to (1) investigate seasonality using Escherichia coli as indicator bacteria (FIB), (2) establish links between stream its controlling factors (hydrology land use). We present results a sampling...
High nitrate concentrations in streams have become a widespread problem throughout Europe recent decades, damaging surface water and groundwater quality.
