Abstract. An empirical period-of-record flow–duration curve (FDC) describes the percentage of time (duration) in which a given streamflow was equaled or exceeded over an historical period time. In many practical applications one has to construct FDCs basins that are ungauged where very few observations available. We present application strategy top-kriging, makes geostatistical procedure capable predicting catchments. Previous top-kriging mainly focused on prediction point indices (e.g....
Abstract. In the United States, estimation of flood frequency quantiles at ungauged locations has been largely based on regional regression techniques that relate measurable catchment descriptors to quantiles. More recently, spatial interpolation point data have shown be effective for predicting streamflow statistics (i.e., flows and low-flow indices) in catchments. Literature reports successful applications two techniques, canonical kriging, CK (or physiographical-space-based interpolation,...
Spent tea leaves from black and green were assessed for their potential to remove lead (II) contaminated waters. Batch adsorption experiments made at temperatures between 5 40 °C ion concentrations 0.01 2 g/L showed that removal efficiencies higher than 95% can easily be achieved. The results only marginally affected by the type of waste. At low loading equilibrium was well described Langmuir equation, with a maximum capacity 85–100 mg/g. A comparison other adsorbents provided following...
Flow–duration curves (FDCs) are essential to support decisions on water resources management, and their regionalization is fundamental for the assessment of ungauged basins. In comparison with calibrated rainfall–runoff models, statistical methods provide data-driven estimates representing a useful benchmark. The objective this work interpolation FDCs from ~500 discharge gauging stations in Danube. To aim we use total negative deviation top-kriging (TNDTK), as multi-regression models shown...
Abstract. Our study develops and tests a geostatistical technique for locally enhancing macro-scale rainfall–runoff simulations on the basis of observed streamflow data that were not used in calibration. We consider Tyrol (Austria Italy) two different types daily data: at 11 prediction nodes observations 46 gauged catchments. The consists three main steps: (1) period-of-record flow–duration curves (FDCs) are geostatistically predicted target ungauged basins, which model runs available; (2)...
Abstract. We present in this study an adaptation of Topological kriging (or Top-kriging), which makes the geostatistical procedure capable predicting flow-duration curves (FDCs) ungauged catchments. Previous applications Top-kriging mainly focused on prediction point streamflow indices (e.g. flood quantiles, low-flow indices, etc.). In is used to predict FDCs sites as a weighted average standardised empirical through traditional linear-weighting scheme methods. Our focuses period-of-record...
Abstract. For about 24 000 river basins across Europe, we provide a continuous representation of the streamflow regime in terms empirical flow-duration curves (FDCs), which are key signatures hydrological behaviour catchment and widely used for supporting decisions on water resource management as well assessing hydrologic change. In this study, FDCs estimated by means geostatistical procedure termed total negative deviation top-kriging (TNDTK), starting from made available Joint Research...
Abstract. In this study we propose a novel method for the estimation of ecological indices describing habitat suitability brown trout (Salmo trutta). Traditional hydrological tools are coupled with an innovative regional geostatistical technique, aiming at prediction index where partial or totally ungauged conditions occur. Several methods assessment already proposed in scientific literature, but possibility exploiting model, such as Topological Kriging, has never been investigated before....

Flow–duration curves (FDCs) provide a compact view of the historical variability river flows, reflecting climate conditions and main hydrologic features basins. The Surface Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission will enable estimation flows globally, by sensing rivers wider than 100 m with sampling recurrence from 3 to 21 days. This study investigated lifetime potential for FDC through comparison between remotely-sensed empirical FDCs. We employed Global Runoff Data Center dataset...
