With Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI), it is possible to map snow cover with a high temporal and spatial resolution. In contrast to the coarse MODIS data, Sentinel-2 MSI enables the investigation of small-scale differences in snow cover duration in complex terrains due to gravitational redistribution (slope), energy balance and wind-driven redistribution (aspect). In this study, we describe the generation of high-resolution spatial and temporal snow cover data sets from Sentinel-2 images for a high-elevation Alpine catchment and discuss how the data contribute to our understanding of the spatio-temporal snow cover distribution. The quality of snow and cloud detection is evaluated against in-situ snow observations and against other snow and cloud products. The main problem was in the false detection of snow in the presence of clouds and in topographically shaded areas. We then seek to explore the potential of the generated high-resolution snow cover maps in calibrating the gravitational snow redistribution module of a physically based snow model, especially for an area with a very data-scarce point snow observation network. Generally, the calibrated snow model is able to simulate both the mean snow cover duration with a high F1 accuracy score of &gt; 0.9 and the fractional snow-covered area with a correlation coefficient of 0.98. The snow model is also able to reproduce spatio-temporal variability in snow cover duration due to surface energy balance dynamics, wind and gravitational redistribution.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":36948,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology X","volume":"15 ","pages":"Article 100123"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589915522000050/pdfft?md5=d2516a474bd52cebdf2ba53ad2737fcd&pid=1-s2.0-S2589915522000050-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47971301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, recent high abstractions are threatening the sustainable use of groundwater, and action is needed to ensure continued supply. Increased managed aquifer recharge (MAR) using the &gt; 200,000 existing tanks (artificially created surface water bodies) is one of the Indian government’s key initiatives to combat declining groundwater levels. However, few studies have directly examined the effectiveness of tank recharge, particularly in the complex fractured hydrogeology of Peninsular India. To address this gap, this study examined the impact of tanks in three crystalline bedrock catchments in Karnataka, southern India, by analysing the isotopic and hydrochemical composition of surface waters and groundwaters, combined with groundwater level observations. The results indicate that tanks have limited impact on regional groundwater recharge and quality in rural areas, where recharge from precipitation and groundwater recycling from irrigation dominate the recharge signal. In the urban setting (Bengaluru), impermeable surfaces increased the relative effect of recharge from point sources such as tanks and rivers, but where present, pipe leakage from public-water-supply accounted for the majority of recharge. Shallow groundwater levels in the inner parts of the city may lead to groundwater discharge to tanks, particularly in the dry season. We conclude that the importance of aquifer recharge from tanks is limited compared to other recharge sources and highly dependent on the specific setting. Additional studies to quantify tank recharge and revisions to the current guidelines for national groundwater recharge estimations, using a less generalised approach, are recommended to avoid over-estimating the role tanks play in groundwater recharge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":36948,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology X","volume":"15 ","pages":"Article 100121"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589915522000037/pdfft?md5=4b829791c0de1c456dcc560daa3a344c&pid=1-s2.0-S2589915522000037-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48853355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effluent-dominated rivers (i.e., rivers that consist primarily of discharged treated wastewater) pose a particular challenge because changes in effluent discharge may impact river ecology. A functional flows approach, in which metrics from the annual hydrograph correspond to ecological processes, was applied to understand the hydro-ecological implications of wastewater reuse in the Los Angeles River watershed (Los Angeles County, California, USA). The Los Angeles River, like many urban rivers, is dominated by effluent, particularly during dry weather. An hourly hydrologic model was created, calibrated, and validated in EPA SWMM for the Los Angeles River watershed to investigate how increases in wastewater reuse (i.e., decreases in discharge to the river) may impact river flows and subsequently ecology and recreation in the river. Current flows are shown to support freshwater marsh, riparian habitat, fish migration, and wading shorebird habitat, in addition to recreational kayaking. Functional flow metrics were assessed under future management scenarios including reducing discharge to increase recycling at three wastewater treatment plants within the watershed. Both wet-season and dry-season baseflows were most sensitive to increasing wastewater reuse, with an average decrease of 51–56% (0.93 cms) from current baseflows. Sensitivity curves that relate potential changes in wastewater discharge to changes in functional flows show that a 4% decrease in current wastewater discharge may negatively impact habitat for indicator species during the dry season. More opportunity exists for wastewater reuse during the wet season, when current wastewater discharge may be reduced by 24% with minimal impacts to ecology and recreation. The developed approach has the potential to inform similar tradeoff decisions in other urban rivers where flows are dominated by wastewater or stormdrain discharge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":36948,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology X","volume":"15 ","pages":"Article 100124"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589915522000062/pdfft?md5=5c47f02837739b38622f7930cf01aa30&pid=1-s2.0-S2589915522000062-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47147257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the capability and applicability of low-cost, off-the-shelf, recreational-grade echosounders (RGESs) to image different types and locate point sources of bubbly coastal SGD. Standard and systematic methodologies for efficient imaging and processing were established. The use of RGES was validated using a research-grade side scan sonar (RGSSS), continuous resistivity profiling, conductivity-temperature-depth casting, and MantaCam and SCUBA diving surveys. Lower frequencies (77/83 kHz) of RGESs showed more distinct acoustic signatures of bubbly SGD, as these were nearly the same as the effective resonance frequency of the bubbles. The clusters of bubbly discharges have higher backscatter strength than the water column noise, resulting in the definitive and convenient manual detection of SGD features. Hence, showing more accurate point sources of SGD. Three types of known SGD occurrence were identified and characterized based on acoustic behavior and spatial distribution: 1) sparse, discrete and sporadic discharge over wide area, 2) curtain, high and continuous bubble concentrations from widespread discharge, and 3) spring, direct bubble discharge from intense seafloor degassing at a single point source. These results showed that RGES provides a good alternative for more efficient and cost-effective preliminary coastal SGD works.
