Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Flow and Hydrochemistry in Drainage Networks

Despite their high ecological value, non-perennial streams have received less attention than their perennial counterparts. This doctoral thesis addresses this disparity by advancing knowledge on the dynamics of the drainage density and hydrologic processes ...

Monitoring changes in temporary stream networks during rainfall events

Andrea Rinaldo, Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Izabela Bujak-Ozga, Ilja van Meerveld

Stream networks are important flow pathways along which water transports solutes, sediments and affects living communities. Field observations in headwater catchments have shown that the networks of actively flowing channels are not static, but rather expa ...

Flood of 23 November 2019 on the French Riviera: a comparison of discharges estimated by image analysis and hydrological modelling

Gauthier Paul Daniel Marie Rousseau, Etienne Robert

The short and heavy rainfall events observed on the French Riviera often lead to flash floods on coastal catchments: during the flood of 2 October 2015, a peak discharge between 185 and 295 m(3)/s was estimated on the Brague at Biot at 8:00 PM, whereas the ...

Can runoff event types explain some scatter in nitrate C-Q relationships?

Jana Freiin von Freyberg

Nitrate contamination of rivers from agricultural sources, is a challenging problem for water quality management. The relationship between solute concentrations and streamflow rates (C-Q) observed at catchment outlets provide useful information on hydrolog ...

The present and future of alpine streams: A microbial functionality perspective

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Tyler Joe Kohler, Jade Brandani

Alpine streams are among the most impacted freshwater ecosystems due to climate change. Depending on water origin, streams within alpine catchments are divided into glacier-fed, groundwater, and snowmelt streams. With the shrinking of glaciers due to clima ...

Generalization of an Encoder-Decoder LSTM model for flood prediction in ungauged catchments

Olga Fink, Yi Zhang, Peter Molnar, Silvan Ragettli

Flood prediction in ungauged catchments is usually conducted by hydrological models that are parameterized based on nearby and similar gauged catchments. As an alternative to this process-based modelling, deep learning (DL) models have demonstrated their a ...

Four years of daily stable water isotope data in stream water and precipitation from three Swiss catchments

Jana Freiin von Freyberg

This dataset contains four years of daily measurements of the natural isotopic composition (2H, 18O) of precipitation and stream water at the Alp catchment (area 47 km2) in Central Switzerland and two of its tributaries (0.7 km2 and 1.6 km2). In addition, ...

Nitrate removal and young stream water fractions at the catchment scale

Paolo Benettin, Li Li

Despite extensive research on nitrate export and removal, nutrient contamination remains a major threat to water bodies worldwide. At the local scale, nitrate removal is governed by biogeochemical conditions that vary in space and time, making integration ...

Sources, Transformation, and Fate of Dissolved Organic Matter in the Gravel Bar of a Prealpine Stream

Tom Ian Battin

Gravel bars (GBs) are hotspots of biogeochemical activity, likely impacting carbon dynamics instreams and rivers. However, it remains unclear how GBs process dissolved organic matter (DOM) receivedfrom stream water and groundwater. Here we investigate the ...

Undercatch Adjustments for Tipping-Bucket Gauge Measurements of Solid Precipitation

Audrey Reverdin

Heated tipping-bucket (TB) gauges are used broadly in national weather monitoring networks, but their performance for the measurement of solid precipitation has not been well characterized. Manufacturer-provided TB gauges were evaluated at five test sites ...
