Development of the marine predators algorithm for optimizing the performance of water supply reservoirs
Human-Induced Resource Scarcity in the Colorado River Basin and Its Implications for Water Supply and the Environment in the Mexicali Valley Transboundary Aquifer
The Colorado River delta is a sedimentary alluvial formation that embodies the Lower Colorado River transboundary aquifer. The Mexicali Valley overlies the Mexican part of the aquifer, and the Imperial Valley the aquifer's portion north of the Mexico-U.S. border. Mexico receives an annual water allocation from the Colorado River stipulated by an international treaty between Mexico and the United States. The Colorado River water allocation to Mexi…

Setting the Flow Accumulation Threshold Based on Environmental and Morphologic Features to Extract River Networks from Digital Elevation Models
Determining the flow accumulation threshold (FAT) is a key task in the extraction of river networks from digital elevation models (DEMs). Several methods have been developed to extract river networks from Digital Elevation Models. However, few studies have considered the geomorphologic complexity in the FAT estimation and river network extraction. Recent studies estimated influencing factors’ impacts on the river length or drainage density withou…

El suministro hídrico al área metropolitana de Los Ángeles, California (Eeuu)
La gran presión demográfica y un clima de rasgos semiáridos hacen que la disponibilidad de agua en el sur de California sea reducida. Diversos trasvases se han realizado con el objetivo de abastecer de agua a la aglomeración urbana de Los Ángeles. Recientemente, nuevas técnicas de desalación y reciclaje de aguas residuales son tomadas en consideración. El artículo realiza un recorrido histórico del suministro de agua a esta región y presenta un r…
Minimal adverse impact of discharging polluted effluents to rivers with selective locations
Regime shift of the hydroclimate–vegetation system in the Yellow River Delta of China from 1982 through 2015
The Yellow River Delta (YRD) has been experiencing substantial climatic, hydrological, and anthropogenic stresses, and a sound understanding of the regime shift in its hydroclimate–vegetation system is of fundamental importance for maintaining the health and stability of its regional ecosystems. This study constructs and analyzes a 34-year-dataset (1982–2015) of hydro–climatic variables and satellite-based Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (…
Kinetics and Mechanisms of Phosphorus Adsorption in Soils from Diverse Ecological Zones in the Source Area of a Drinking-Water Reservoir
On-site soils are increasingly used in the treatment and restoration of ecosystems to harmonize with the local landscape and minimize costs. Eight natural soils from diverse ecological zones in the source area of a drinking-water reservoir in central China are used as adsorbents for the uptake of phosphorus from aqueous solutions. The X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometric and BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) tests and the Scanning Electron Microscop…
Long-term climatic change and sustainable ground water resources management
Atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs), prominently carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N 2O), and halocarbons, have risen from fossil-fuel combustion, deforestation, agriculture, and industry. There is currently heated national and international debate about the consequences of such increasing concentrations of GHGs on the Earth's climate, and, ultimately, on life and society in the world as we know it. This paper …
Climate Change and Ground Water
This article summarizes the theory of climate change and the relationship of climate-change forcing to hydrologic and aquifer processes. It focuses on regional aquifer systems and on the methods to link large-scale climate-change processes to ground-water recharge and to simulate ground-water flow and solute transport in a warmer, 2xCO2 climate. The article reviews methods currently available to generate climate-change forcing and to simulate reg…
