Streamflow frequency changes across western Europe and interactions with North Atlantic atmospheric circulation patterns

J. Lorenzo-Lacruz et al.

Summary: This study identifies significant periodicities in streamflow dynamics across western Europe and identifies synchronous periodicities with the main atmospheric mechanisms over the North Atlantic sector. The study shows the occurrence of a 7-years streamflow cycle in a large proportion of catchments within the study domain since the mid 1980's.

Wavelet analysis of hydro-climatic time-series and vegetation trends of the Upper Arag acute accent on catchment (Central Spanish Pyrenees)

C. Juez et al.

Summary: By studying data from the Upper Arag'on catchment in central Spain, it was found that abandonment of land has led to a significant increase in forest and broadleaf coverage, with a slight increase in temperature and moderate decrease in precipitation. This has resulted in a sharp decline in discharge in the catchment, with changes in dynamics and variability. The study indicates that land use and land cover changes dominate river discharge dynamics, while climate trends play a secondary role.

Flushing Capacity of a Stored Volume of Water: An Experimental Study

Sebastian Guillen-Ludena et al.

Summary: This paper presents a systematic analysis of the hydraulic flushing capacity of a stored volume of water to remove sediments. The results show that the efficacy of flushing increases with higher initial slope and decreases with larger initial volume of water. The sediment size also affects the flushing efficacy, with fine sand being impacted by apparent cohesion in the mobile bed.

Long-term temporal structure of catchment sediment response to precipitation in a humid mountain badland area

C. Juez et al.

Summary: This study analyzed a long-term database to characterize the temporal structure response of a catchment in a humid mountain badland area to precipitation. By utilizing frequency analysis and wavelet reconstruction techniques, it was able to reveal the dominant time scales governing the behavior of precipitation, discharge, and sediment yield dynamics. The combination of geomorphological metrics and frequency analysis provided a physical explanation of the complete temporal structure of the catchment response to precipitation, highlighting the importance of multi-temporal response of water and sediment fluxes for proper catchment management.

Intraseasonal-to-Interannual Analysis of Discharge and Suspended Sediment Concentration Time-Series of the Upper Changjiang (Yangtze River)

C. Juez et al.

Summary: In this study, wavelet transformation method was used to analyze data from over 50 years at the Pingshan station on the Upper Changjiang River in order to identify the time-scale dependency of suspended sediment patterns. Short time scales are driven by climatic factors, while long time scales are controlled by high flow events and sediment storage within the river reach.

The 63-year changes in annual streamflow volumes across Europe with a focus on the Mediterranean basin

Daniele Masseroni et al.

Summary: This study examined annual streamflow volume trends across Europe using a newly assembled data set from over 3000 stations in more than 40 countries. The results showed negative trends in Mediterranean regions and positive trends in northern regions, consistent with continental-scale meteorological observations responding to climate change drivers. The findings provide valuable insights for contextualizing short-term trends, regional studies, and further quantitative analysis of annual streamflow volumes.
