A high space-time resolution dataset linking meteorological forcing and hydro-sedimentary response in a mesoscale Mediterranean catchment (Auzon) of the Ardeche region, France
Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli, Timothy Hugh Raupach
A comprehensive hydrometeorological dataset is presented spanning the period 1 January 201131 December 2014 to improve the understanding of the hydrological processes leading to flash floods and the relation between rainfall, runoff, erosion and sediment t ...
Copernicus GmbH2017Head losses and influence length of sharp-edged and rounded orifices under steady flow conditions
Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam
Orifices have been largely studied either for flow metering or for producing head losses. An orifice which is used as a flow meter is well defined in ISO 5167. All the geometrical parameters are defined to obtain discharges as accurate as possible. However ...
2017Classification and prediction of river network ephemerality and its relevance for waterborne disease epidemiology
Andrea Rinaldo, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Theophile Mande, Francisco Javier Perez Saez
The transmission of waterborne diseases hinges on the interactions between hydrology and ecology of hosts, vectors and parasites, with the long-term absence of water constituting a strict lower bound. However, the link between spatio-temporal patterns of h ...
Elsevier Sci Ltd2017Alignment and Assembly
Over recent years, many large network datasets become available, giving rise to novel and valuable applications of data mining and machine learning techniques. These datasets include social networks, the structure of the Internet, and protein-interaction n ...
EPFL2017Snowmelt observations at the slope scale and implications for the catchment response using the Alpine3D model
Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Ernesto Trujillo Gomez, Tristan Jonas Brauchli
Snowpack and especially its melt during spring is a crucial resource for water availability in mountainous regions. A better understanding of the processes and their representation in hydrological models is therefore necessary for different purposes, such ...
2016Replenishment of sediment downstream of dams
Dams on rivers alter the sediment continuum, trapping water and sediment in the upstream reservoirs. River reaches downstream are affected by several negative effects, such as bed incision, reduction of the river morphological variability, development of a ...
EPFL2016Hydrological Processes in a High Alpine Watershed
Alpine hydrology is particularly challenging due to the complexity of mountainous terrain and the spatial and temporal variability of meteorological parameters such as precipitation, temperature and evaporation. Yet improving our understanding of hydrologi ...
EPFL2015Hysteresis Effects in Splash Sediment Transport
David Andrew Barry, Seifeddine Jomaa, Mohsen Cheraghi
Temporally variable rainfall was applied on an initially dry, ploughed and smoothed agricultural soil to investigate the hysteresis pattern in the sediment concentration- discharge relation using laboratory flume experiments. The erosion flume had dimensio ...
Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences2015Snowmelt dynamics and streamflow response in an alpine catchment
Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Ernesto Trujillo Gomez, Tristan Jonas Brauchli
Snowmelt processes are crucial components of the hydrologic cycle in mountain regions. Proper understanding of the relationships between snowmelt output at point and slope scales and the hydrological response of alpine catchments is important for its accur ...
2015Flow and Temperature Dynamics in the Hydrologic Response of Alpine Catchments: Travel Time Formulation and Geomorphologic Signatures
Andrea Rinaldo, Michael Lehning, Bettina Schaefli, Francesco Comola
We present a travel time formulation of water and energy transport at sub-catchment scale. The derived equations are implemented in Alpine3D, a physically-based model of snow processes, which provides the necessary boundary conditions to perform hydro-ther ...
