Hydrological trends and the evolution of catchment research in the Alptal valley, central Switzerland

Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Ilja van Meerveld

When the observation of small headwater catchments in the pre-Alpine Alptal valley (central Switzerland) started in the late 1960s, the researchers were mainly interested in questions related to floods and forest management. Investigations of geomorphologi ...

A dual-layer MPI continuous large-scale hydrological model including Human Systems

Sebastiano Piccolroaz

Large-scale hydrological models are demanding both in term of memory allocation and CPU time, particularly when assessment of modeling uncertainty is required. High Performance Computing offers the opportunity to reach resolutions not achievable with stand ...

Spatio-temporal controls of C–N–P dynamics across headwater catchments of a temperate agricultural region from public data analysis

Camille Roland Marie Minaudo

Characterizing and understanding spatial variability in water quality for a variety of chemical elements is an issue for present and future water resource management. However, most studies of spatial variability in water quality focus on a single element a ...

Simulation of long-term spatiotemporal variations in regional-scale groundwater recharge: contributions of a water budget approach in cold and humid climates

Emmanuel Qays Dubois

Groundwater recharge (GWR) is a strategic hydrologic variable, and its estimate is necessary to implement sustainable groundwater management. This is especially true in a global warming context that highly impacts key winter conditions in cold and humid cl ...

Untersuchung der ökomorphologischen Wirksamkeit von Sedimentzugaben unterhalb von Talsperren [Assessment of the eco-morphological effectiveness of sediment augmentation downstream of dams]

Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl

The regulation of discharge and the retention of sediments in reservoirs disturb the natural water dynamics in residual flow stretches below reservoirs. However, a dynamic river morphology as well as near-natural hydrological hydrographs are fundamen ...

Nearfield development of the negatively buoyant Rhône River inflow into Lake Geneva as an interflow: suspended particulate matter and associated fluxes.

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Htet Kyi Wynn, Violaine Florette Piton, Frédéric Charles Soulignac, Benjamin Daniel Graf

River inflows have a major influence on lake water quality through their input of sediments, nutrients and contaminants. It is therefore essential to determine their pathways, their mixing with ambient waters and the amount and type of Suspended Particulat ...

Dielectrophoresis detection device

Carlotta Guiducci

A dielectrophoretic detection device comprising a chip, with a flow channel having at least one inlet and one outlet, and at least a detection area configured to detect analytes trapped on functionalised beads flowing within said flow channel, a first and ...

Assessing Subaquatic Mass Movement Hazards: an Integrated Observational and Hydrodynamic Modelling Approach

Damien Bouffard, Nathalie Dubois

High-resolution lake and reservoir bathymetric surveys can pinpoint locations that may experience underwater landslides (subaquatic sedimentary mass movements). These can pose a risk to underwater and shoreline infrastructure. This paper outlines an approa ...

Influence of the inlet velocity profile on the flow stability in a symmetric channel expansion

François Gallaire, Lorenzo Siconolfi, Robin Debuysschère

In a channel flow with a sudden expansion, whether for three-dimensional (3-D) pipe and channel flows, or for two-dimensional (2-D) channel flow, it is known that increasing the Reynolds number beyond a critical value induces a symmetry breaking Pitchfork ...

More green and less blue water in the Alps during warmer summers

Gabriele Manoli, Peter Molnar, Paolo Burlando

Climate change can reduce surface-water supply by enhancing evapotranspiration in forested mountains, especially during heatwaves. We investigate this ‘drought paradox’ for the European Alps using a 1,212-station database and hyper-resolution ecohydrologic ...
