Extreme flooding impacts millions of people that live within the Amazon floodplain. Global
hydrological models (GHMs) are frequently used to assess and inform the management of …

This article describes a software suite that can be used for objective evaluation of tropical
cyclones (TCs) in gridded climate data. Using cyclone trajectories derived from 6-hourly …

Using river centerlines created with Landsat images and the Shuttle Radar Topography
Mission digital elevation model, we created spatially continuous maps of mean annual flow …

Hydrokinetic energy conversion refers to the conversion of kinetic energy in moving water to
electricity. It offers an alternative to conventional hydropower, with benefits of modularity and …

Recent years have seen the development of 1‐D and 2‐D regional‐scale hydrological‐
hydrodynamic models, which differ greatly from reach‐scale applications in terms of subgrid …

Spatiotemporal distribution and systematic quantification of surface water and their drivers of
change are critical. However, quantifying this distribution is challenging due to a lack of …

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission will measure water
surface elevations and inundation extents of rivers of the world but with limited temporal …

Hydrologic models are essential tools for understanding hydrologic processes, such as
precipitation, which is a fundamental component of the water cycle. For an improved …

Flooding causes serious loss of life and property, especially in highly urbanized regions.
The driving mechanisms of flooding should be investigated in detail and permanent …

The present era of climate change and expanding population requires major improvements
in sustained observation of global river discharge. Floods and droughts are affecting food …
