Missing water from the Qiangtang Basin on the Tibetan Plateau

David Andrew Barry

The Qiangtang Basin is a large endorheic basin in the inner part of the Tibetan Plateau and has been thought to be a dry region in contrast with its wet surrounding outer region that feeds all the major Asian rivers. Combining surface hydrological data wit ...

Mountain snow: The source of the mother river—Study of multi-scale and multi-physical process of spatio-temporal evolution of snow distribution

Guang Li

Snow is one of the most active elements on the earth, which is an important mass source of polar ice sheets and alpine glaciers, as well as a main supply for the runoff. Its distribution and evolution have a great impact on global hydrological cycle, ecosy ...

Erosion, transport and deposition of a sediment replenishment under flood conditions

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Severin Stähly

River reaches downstream of dams with constant residual discharge often lack sediment supply and periodic high flows due to dam sediment retention and flow regulation, respectively. To test a novel multi-deposit methodology for defining environmental flows ...

The sun is no fun without rain: Physical environments affect how we feel about yellow across 55 countries

Maya Roinishvili, Christine Mohr, Ahmad Abu-Akel, Ramiro Tau, Amer Chamseddine

Across cultures, people associate colours with emotions. Here, we test the hypothesis that one driver of this cross-modal correspondence is the physical environment we live in. We focus on a prime example - the association of yellow with joy, - which conce ...

Probabilistic Prediction and Forecast of Daily Suspended Sediment Concentration on the Upper Yangtze River

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Xin Lu

Sediment transport in suspension can represent more than 90% of a river's total annual flux of sediment. In the case of the Yangtze River, more than 99% of the sediment supplied to the sea is suspended load. Suspended sediment is thus an important componen ...

Carbon fate in a large temperate human-impacted river system: Focus on benthic dynamics

Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier

Fluvial networks play an important role in regional and global carbon (C) budgets. The Seine River, from the Paris urban area to the entrance of its estuary (220km), is studied here as an example of a large human-impacted river system subject to temperate ...

Experimental evaluation of the discharge capacity of flow constrictions by check dams in mountain rivers

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Sebastian Schwindt

Open check dams are built to retain bed load in case of major floods and may have filtering, sieving as well as dosing effects on sediment transport. The combination of an upstream reservoir with an open check dam is designated as bed load trap. These stru ...
