Changes in the Flowing Drainage Network and Stream Chemistry During Rainfall Events for Two Pre-alpine Catchments

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

Many headwater catchments contain non-perennial streams that flow only during wet conditions or in response to rainfall events. The onset and cessation of flow result in a dynamic stream network that periodically expands and contracts. The onset of flow ca ...

Technical note: Two-component electrical-conductivity-based hydrograph separation employing an exponential mixing model (EXPECT) provides reliable high-temporal-resolution young water fraction estimates in three small Swiss catchments

Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Davide Canone

The young water fraction represents the portion of water molecules in a stream that have entered the catchment relatively recently, typically within 2-3 months. It can be reliably estimated in spatially heterogeneous and nonstationary catchments from the a ...

Comparison of the Dynamics of the Flowing Drainage Network and Water Chemistry for Four Headwater Catchments

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

Ecohydrology published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.The re-emergence of water in dry stream reaches affects streamwater chemistry due to the flushing of sediment and nutrients from previously dry channels and the increased connectivity between hillslopes and s ...

Multi-year time series of daily solute and isotope measurements from three Swiss pre-Alpine catchments

Jana Freiin von Freyberg

Time series analyses of solute concentrations in streamwater and precipitation are powerful tools for unraveling the interplay of hydrological and biogeochemical processes at the catchment scale. While such datasets are available for many sites around the ...

Winter post-droughts amplify extreme nitrate concentrations in German rivers

Jana Freiin von Freyberg

Hydrological extremes can affect nutrient export from catchments to streams, posing a threat to aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we investigated the effects of hydrological drought on nitrate concentrations in the streamflow of 182 German catchments from ...

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

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

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 ...

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

Jana Freiin von Freyberg

Time series of the natural isotopic composition (2H, 18O) of precipitation and streamwater can provide important insights into ecohydrological phenomena at the catchment scale. However, multi-year, high-frequency isotope datasets are generally scarce, limi ...

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, ...
