Gauged basins are clustered into several classes using the fuzzy c-means method based on flow signatures, which quantify catchment hydrological behavior. The classification and regression tree is employed to learn from cluster results and then obtain classes of basins without observed flow. Correlation methods are used to analyze the influence of basin signatures on flow signatures, while the difference significance test is applied to the hydrological behavior diversity between clusters from classification and regression tree. Results show that China’s basins are divided into five clusters, with low flow signatures more distinguishing classes than high flow signatures. It confirms that climate factors dominate hydrological behavior. However, soil is also an important control factor found in this study, which is rare in others.

Firstly, the correlation analysis is carried out between the outflow of the Zhentouba hydropower station(ZTB) and the inflow of the Shaping II Hydropower Station(SP), and the spatio-temporal hydraulic connection between the ZTB and SP is obtained. The fuzzy relationship between tail water level and discharge flow is accurately described using numerical simulation, considering the interaction between power generation and discharge. Secondly, based on the precise description of inflow and outflow, a high-precision water level rolling prediction model is constructed using the water balance principle. Finally, based on the MPC, the real-time control model of SP is constructed. The results show that the water level process is steadier, with fewer gate adjustments. Compared with the observed number of gate adjustments in 2020, the number of reservoir gate adjustments after model optimization is reduced by 73.26%.

However, efforts in the last years are yielding promising advancements in this direction. Scientists have been working to unravel the complexities of intermittency dynamics. In this study, we aimed to investigate the characteristics of naturally intermittent water systems by exploring the occurrence of no-flow events. A hydrological model was employed to generate streamflow data. Our analysis encompassed a thorough examination of nineteen flow regime metrics, estimated across 2064 subbasins, with 190 of these meeting the criterion for intermittency. A custom Python library was deployed to automate the quantification of no-flow events, aligning with the concept of critical thresholds. Using the probabilistic t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding technique to capture complex patterns, three clusters were emerged. The first one was characterized by a low probability of no-flow events and a small number of no-flow events per year, the second cluster was abundant in no-flow events and demonstrated a tendency towards longer annual recession time scales. The third cluster stands out due to the significant variance in the duration of no-flow events. Concerning the time variability of the no-flow events, we concluded that they predominantly occurred during August. Both long- and short-term quantification of no-flow events should be under consideration so as to harmonize the naturally intermittent waterways with the water use requirements and the potential consequences of not meeting them. Future research should prioritize the investigation of hydroecology and ecohydrology in relation to streamflow dynamics and ecosystem interactions.

In this study, we explored the changes in cropland, forest, grassland, urban, and bare land exposure to CDH frequency and magnitude (CDHMI) in China under different emission scenarios in the far-future (2070–2099) based on 12 model simulations from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) and Land Use Harmonization Version 2 (LUH2) data. The results indicate that with global warming, China is expected to face more frequent and severe CDH events in the future, particularly under high-emission scenarios. Correspondingly, Cropland, forest, grassland, and bare land exposure to CDH frequency and CDHMI show significant upward trends during 2015–2099, increasing at greater rates in high emission scenarios. Although the urban exposure to CDH frequency and CDHMI is projected to decelerate or even decline after 2050, urban exposure to CDH frequency and CDHMI under high-emission scenario will still increase by 605.20% and 207.32% during the far-future period (2070–2099) compared to 1981–2010, respectively. Regionally, the substantial increase in cropland, forest, grassland, urban, and bare land exposure to CDH frequency and CDHMI is concentrated in Northwestern China and Southern China due to the significant rise in frequency and magnitude of CDH events in these areas.

Monitoring and predicting karst spring discharge is essential for effective groundwater management and the preservation of karst ecosystems. However, the high heterogeneity and karstification pose significant challenges to physics-based models in providing robust predictions of karst spring discharge. In this study, an interpretable multi-step hybrid deep learning model called selective EEMD-TFT is proposed, which adaptively integrates temporal fusion transformers (TFT) with ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) for predicting karst spring discharge. The selective EEMD-TFT hybrid model leverages the strengths of both EEMD and TFT techniques to learn inherent patterns and temporal dynamics from nonlinear and nonstationary signals, eliminate redundant components, and emphasize useful characteristics of input variables, leading to the improvement of prediction performance and efficiency. It consists of two stages: in the first stage, the daily precipitation data is decomposed into multiple intrinsic mode functions using EEMD to extract valuable information from nonlinear and nonstationary signals. All decomposed components, temperature and categorical date features are then fed into the TFT model, which is an attention-based deep learning model that combines high-performance multi-horizon prediction and interpretable insights into temporal dynamics. The importance of input variables will be quantified and ranked. In the second stage, the decomposed precipitation components with high importance are selected to serve as the TFT model’s input features along with temperature and categorical date variables for the final prediction. Results indicate that the selective EEMD-TFT model outperforms other sequence-to-sequence deep learning models, such as LSTM and single TFT models, delivering reliable and robust prediction performance. Notably, it maintains more consistent prediction performance at longer forecast horizons compared to other sequence-to-sequence models, highlighting its capacity to learn complex patterns from the input data and efficiently extract valuable information for karst spring prediction.

Sediment hysteresis, which describes the mismatch between hydrograph peak and sedigraph peak, aids with elucidation of the mechanisms of sediment transport in watersheds. Most frequently, the controls of hysteresis are attributed to the proximity of sediment sources to monitoring locations in a watershed. However, this assumption, while widely applied, is infrequently verified. We investigated the controls of sediment hysteresis in a low gradient system located in the Bluegrass Region of central Kentucky, USA. Turbidity and conductivity sensors installed at the basin outlet provided data to quantify sediment hysteresis and separate hydrologic flow pathways (i.e., by describing the source of water delivered to the watershed’s outlet) using a tracer-based approach. Predictive hydrologic parameters, including hydrologic pathways, event magnitude, and antecedent conditions, were estimated and grouped based on hydrologic similitude. Thereafter, we identified parameters required to predict sediment hysteresis using a tailored ensemble feature selection approach coupled with three machine learning algorithms—Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Gradient Boosted Trees. Results from the analysis of 68 storm events occurring over a two-year period showed that clockwise events accounted for 85 % of the total sediment yield despite comprising only 53 % of the events. The hysteresis index (HI) can be predicted (r = 0.8, RMSE = 0.12) using three, out of the thirty-nine hydrologic parameters considered. The most important predictors of HI reflect the volume of event rainfall and the relative proportions of new water (i.e., water derived from precipitation during the storm event) and old water (i.e., water previously stored in the watershed) comprising the hydrograph. Further analyses reveal that new water timing—which changes with the rainfall volume—and sediment timing are closely linked, suggesting that variations in the hysteresis patterns are controlled by changes in the response time of fast flowing water pathways. This implies that hydrologic pathways, as opposed to sediment proximity to the watershed outlet, control sediment hysteresis in this watershed. These results have important implications for better understanding the mechanisms controlling sediment transport at the watershed scale.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":362,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology","volume":"645 ","pages":"Article 132207"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142530908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
