Aquifer recharge from flash floods in the arid environment: A mass balance ap...Amro Elfeki
Estimation of the infiltration/natural recharge to groundwater from rainfall is an important issue in hydrology, particularly in arid regions. This paper proposes the application of The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) mass balance model to develop infiltration (F)–rainfall (P) relationship from flash flood events. Moreover, the NRCS method is compared with the rational and the Ф-index methods to investigate the discrepancies between these methods. The methods have been applied to five gauged basins and their 19 sub-basins (representative basins with detailed measurements) in the southwestern part of Saudi Arabia with 161 storms recorded in 4 years. The F–P relationships developed in this study based on NRCS method are: F = 39% P with R2 = 0.932 for the initial abstraction factor, λ = 0.2. However, F = 77% P with R2 = 0.986 for λ = 0.01. The model at λ = 0.01 is the best to fit the data, therefore, it is recommended to use the formula at λ = 0.01. The results show that the NRCS model is appropriate for the estimation of the F–P relationships in arid regions when compared with the rational and the Ф index methods. The latter overestimates the infiltration because they do not take λ into account. There is no significant difference between F–P relationships at different time scales. This helps the prediction of infiltration rates for aquifer recharge at ungauged basins from monthly and annual rainfall data with a single formula.

ICLR Friday Forum: Floodplain mapping over Canada: performance at inundation...glennmcgillivray
ICLR conducted a Friday Forum webinar on June 18, 2021 titled 'Floodplain mapping over Canada: Investigating performance at inundation level and understanding dynamics of population flood exposure', led by Dr. Slobodan Simonovic, Director of Engineering Studies, ICLR/Professor Emeritus, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Western University.
Surface runoff estimates from atmospheric re-analysis datasets are increasingly preferred by hydrologists for modelling floods in regions where traditional observations are not sufficiently available. This presentation explores the fidelity of four widely used re-analyses runoff products as hydraulic forcings to a flood inundation model in describing inundation dynamics over Canada. The re-analysis obtained runoff is used with the Catchment-based Macroscale Floodplain (CaMa-Flood) global hydrodynamic model, to derive high-resolution floodplain maps for 100 and 200-yr return periods. The floodplain maps derived from each reanalysis dataset are compared with the regional developed or ‘benchmark floodplain maps’ over six selected flood-prone basins (test basins) in Canada through a set of performance statistics. Using the superior reanalysis runoff dataset, a few historic flood events over the test basins are simulated and subsequently compared with MODIS satellite-derived floodplain information. We notice that more than 75% of the inundation is precisely captured for these events.
The second part of the presentation will focus on the use of four global population datasets (together with census data from Statistics Canada as the reference), their performances and skill in flood exposure assessment across Canada. The flood exposure is quantified based on a set of floodplain maps for Canada derived from the CaMa-Flood global flood model. To obtain further insights at the regional level, the methodology is implemented over six flood-prone River Basins in Canada. We find that about 9% (3.31 million) and 11% (3.90 million) of the Canadian population resides within 1 in 100-yr and 1 in 200-yr floodplains.
This work (i) strongly supports the need for careful selection of a re-analysis dataset while performing inundation modelling for large regions: and (ii) also highlights the need for careful selection of population datasets for preventing further amplification of uncertainties in flood risk. The results derived from this study may be useful for flood risk management and contribute to understanding other disaster impacts on human-environment interrelationships.
Evaluating Satellite Precipitation Error Propagation in Runoff Simulations of...Yiwen Mei
This study investigates the error characteristics of six quasi-global satellite precipitation products and associated error propagation in flow simulations for 16 mountainous basin scales (areas ranging from 255 to 6967 km2) and two different periods (May-Aug & Sep-Nov) in northeast Italy. The satellite products used in this study are 3B42-CCA, 3B42-V7, CMORPH and PERSIANN with their respect gauge-adjusted products. To evaluate the error propagation in flood simulations satellite precipitation datasets were used to force a gauge-calibrated hydrologic model to simulate runoff for the 16 basins, and comparing them to the gauge-driven simulated hydrographs for a range of moderate to high flood events spanning a nine-year period (2002 to 2009). Statistics describing the systematic and random error, the temporal similarity and error ratios between precipitation and runoff are presented.

Abstract: Europe’s ability to feed its population depends on the balance of agricultural productivity (yields and land suitability) and demand which are affected by future climate and socio-economic change (arising from changing food demand; prices; technology change etc). Land use under 2050 climate change and socio-economic scenarios can be rapidly and systematically quantified with a modelling system that has been developed from meta-models of optimal cropping and crop and forest yields derived from the outputs of the previously developed complex models (Audsley et al; 2015). Profitability of each possible land use is modelled for every soil in every grid across the EU. Land use in a grid is then allocated based on profit thresholds set for intensive agriculture extensive agriculture, managed forest and finally unmanaged forest or unmanaged land. The European demand for food as a function of population, imports, food preferences and bioenergy, is a production constraint, as is irrigation water available. The model iterates until demand is satisfied (or cannot be met at any price). Results are presented as contour plots of key variables. For example, given a 40% increase in population from the baseline socio-economic scenario, adapting by increasing crop yields by 40% will leave a 38% probability that the 2050 future climate will be such that we cannot feed ourselves – considering “all” the possible climate scenarios.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
WRI’s brand new “Food Service Playbook for Promoting Sustainable Food Choices” gives food service operators the very latest strategies for creating dining environments that empower consumers to choose sustainable, plant-rich dishes. This research builds off our first guide for food service, now with industry experience and insights from nearly 350 academic trials.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Editor's Notes
I am Christel Prudhomme, and together with Glenn Watts, Luis Samaniego, Justin Sheffield and Matt Fry, we will be presenting the vision and solutions developed by the second proof of concept project for the water sector. We thought it would best to describe out project in one big presentation, and take questions at the end.
You’ll remember that 4 focus groups were established. Meetings were held in all 3 countries. Common workshop materials were used and standard templates to gather and record information.
We asked you:..
All countries have good access to climate change data info and to observed climate and river flow data, but would like:
Skilful seasonal hydrological forecasts, though most suggest these are unlikely to offer enough skill to change their need to plan for the worst.
In upland areas users find the current spatial resolution of climate change information inadequate. Other users want to understand hourly or sub-hourly changes, for example in rainfall intensity.
For water supply in the UK and for all uses in the Júcar basin, understanding how drought indices may change is important
This is not readily available from current generations of climate models.
Less sophisticated groups (eg. Norway LA group) makes little use of climate info at present
forcings
I will improved it. I can also show an indicator for CP
Main points for the demo:
- High resolution indicators for climate change over this century
- Design has focussed on user requirements for highly performant system to let them really look at and understand the information on display
- Maps show average of the indicator from the modelled ensemble (currently base on the draft model output we've produced)
- Describe list of indicators across precip, flow, soil moisture,etc.
- Show how users can include / exclude climate and hydrological models to understand their affect on ensemble average
- Show performance for varying time slice on display and for zooming
- Show how dynamic legend can allow variation in less contrasting areas to be accentuated, and also to create maps to pick up on specific features, e.g. change </> 10%. Is this a good idea?
- Highlight links to help information and in future user guidance
- Show graphing tool, focussing in on a specific area and indicator (we'll have to find one that doesn't look too weird)
- Demonstrate download functionality, and explain how this comes from an API for the indicators

The vision of EDgE is to break down barriers for users of a range of different backgrounds to access and understand hydrological predictions. This is delivered through a fully integrative project identifying who are the users and what is their need, developing state-of-the-art hydrological solutions, and building a fast and easy to use web interface application.
At the core of EDgE is the iterative co-design and testing of products and services with the users.
