Short-term dynamics of drainage density based on a combination of channel flow state surveys and water level measurements

Andrea Rinaldo, Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Izabela Bujak-Ozga

Headwater streams often experience intermittent flow. Consequently, the flowing drainage network expands and contracts and the flowing drainage density (DD) varies over time. Monitoring the DD dynamics is essential to understand the processes controlling i ...

Wastewater monitoring can anchor global disease surveillance systems

Tamar Kohn, Timothy R. Julian, Alex Robinson

To inform the development of global wastewater monitoring systems, we surveyed programmes in 43 countries. Most programmes monitored predominantly urban populations. In high-income countries (HICs), composite sampling at centralised treatment plants was mo ...

Impact of Escherichia colifrom stormwater drainage on recreational water quality: an integrated monitoring and modelling of urban catchment, pipes and lake

Frédéric Charles Soulignac

In recent years, recreational waterbodies are increasingly favoured in urban areas. In spite of the growing concerns for maintaining the required bathing water quality, the impacts of stormwater drainage are still poorly controlled. In this context, this s ...

Design of sediment detention basins: Scaled model experiments and application

Anton Schleiss, Sebastian Schwindt, Mona Jafarnejad Chaghooshi, Anita Hélène Roth

Sediment detention basins are implemented on mountain rivers to trap solid material that may aggravate the flooding of downstream settlements. However, retention structures built in the past may unnecessarily retain sediment during non-hazardous flood even ...

Spatio-Temporal Relationship between Land Cover and Land Surface Temperature in Urban Areas: A Case Study in Geneva and Paris

Roberto Castello, Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Xu Ge

Currently, more than half of the world’s population lives in cities, which leads to major changes in land use and land surface temperature (LST). The associated urban heat island (UHI) effects have multiple impacts on energy consumption and human health. A ...

The foreign oligochaete species Quistadrilus multisetosus (Smith, 1900) in Lake Geneva: morphological and molecular characterization and environmental influences on its distribution

Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Régis Lionel Vivien

The presence of the oligochaete species Quistadrilus multisetosus (Smith, 1900) originating from North America has been mentioned for several decades in Europe, the Middle East and Russia. Its distribution and abundance in Europe is still unknown but it ca ...

An urban ecohydrological model to quantify the effect of vegetation on urban climate and hydrology (UT&C v1.0)

Gabriele Manoli, Matthias Roth, Paolo Burlando

Increasing urbanization is likely to intensify the urban heat island effect, decrease outdoor thermal comfort, and enhance runoff generation in cities. Urban green spaces are often proposed as a mitigation strategy to counteract these adverse effects, and ...

Control of sediment transport on an alpine catchment basin for the safe application of smart storage operations on an run-off-river HPP

Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Jessica Zordan, Rafael Casimiro De Figueiredo

Smart storage operations (SSO) have been implemented on an alpine run-off-river HPP (case study: KW Gletsch-Oberwald HPP) in order to enhance the flexibility of the power plant (ref poster SmallFlex). SSO operations consist on the use of available space un ...

Sediment flushing downstream dams: a study on the clogging by fine sediments

Giovanni De Cesare, Christophe Ancey, Romain Maxime Dubuis

Water reservoirs used to produce electricity have an impact on the environment and durability by : • stopping the natural sediment flux • changing the flow regime downstream of the reservoirs • storing (fine) sediments that reduce the storage volume Those ...
