In this paper we review threshold behaviour in environmental systems, which are often
associated with the onset of floods, contamination and erosion events, and other …

At the hillslope scale, surface runoff depends to a great extent on the water deficit of the
soils, ie the difference between the effective porosity and the water content, all through the …

The complex interactions of runoff generation processes underlying the hydrological
response of streams remain not entirely understood at the catchment scale. Extensive …

In this study, the feasibility of the resistivity method for the study of the spatial and temporal
soil moisture variations in the Vallaccia catchment (central Italy), covering an area of about …

This review assesses the potential of the African continent to contribute to the three main
targets of the new science decade of IAHS (Panta Rhei): understanding, estimation and …

The synthesis of experimental understanding of catchment behaviour and its translation into
qualitative perceptual models is an important objective of hydrological sciences. We explore …

The phrase form and function was established in architecture and biology and refers to the
idea that form and functionality are closely correlated, influence each other, and co-evolve …

The understanding of runoff generation mechanisms is crucial for the sustainable
management of river basins such as the allocation of water resources or the prediction of …

Chemical hydrograph separation using electrical conductivity and digital filters is applied to
quantify runoff components in the 1,640 km2 semi‐arid Kaap River catchment and its …

Soil information is vital for a range of purposes; however, soils vary greatly over short
distances, making accurate soil data difficult to obtain. Soil surveys were first carried out in …
