Bankfull conditions are well studied in temperature regions in the northern hemisphere, but elsewhere, data are sparse and bankfull applications are underdeveloped. We hypothesised that subtropical regions in the southern hemisphere, such as parts of eastern Australia, are different hydrologically to well-studied areas due to more variability in hydroclimate and different geophysical settings. We assessed how bankfull properties such as bankfull discharge and recurrence interval are affected by hydroclimatic and geomorphic contexts in subtropical areas in the southern hemisphere. We developed models to predict bankfull discharge based on catchment size while accounting for climatic and geomorphology. Additionally, we evaluated two analytical methods of bankfull stage identification compared to a qualitative, visual assessment.</div></div><div><h3>New hydrological insight for the region</h3><div>In general, we found that hydroclimate exerted little influence on bankfull properties in (SEQ). We also found that geomorphology significantly relates to recurrence intervals but was not an explanatory factor for bankfull discharge. Modelling of bankfull discharge demonstrated that including rainfall as a predictive variable did not substantially improve estimations, which climatic regionalization improved predictions in some areas, but not in others. Furthermore, one analytical method of bankfull identification, the bench index method, produced similar bankfull stage estimates to the qualitative bankfull identification. Overall, these results suggest bankfull discharge in rivers and streams of subtropical regions in the southern hemisphere is expressive of similar hydrologic characteristics as rivers and streams in temperate climates even with different geomorphological conditions. Our study also demonstrates the bench index method could provide an efficient and effective surrogate for identifying bankfull conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48620,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology-Regional Studies","volume":"59 ","pages":"Article 102356"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143776282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The RF model was trained using ERA5-Land climatic variables (air temperature, relative humidity, and ET₀ from ERA5-Land) along with the day of the year (DOY).</div></div><div><h3>New hydrological insights for the region</h3><div>Results demonstrated a high correlation between ERA5-Land temperature estimates and observed station data (Pearson correlation coefficient, r = 0.97; Root Mean Square Error, RMSE = 2.77°C), while relative humidity showed a weaker agreement (Normalized Root Mean Square Error, NRMSE = 21 %). The RF model outperformed traditional approaches in arid and semi-arid regions, achieving NRMSE values of 25 % and 28 %, respectively, with a 60 % improvement over humid regions. At the 8-day scale, predictive accuracy improved further (RMSE = 6.05 mm/8 days, r = 0.99). Beyond model performance, this study provides new insights into the spatiotemporal variability of ET₀ across different climatic zones. The findings indicate that temperature is the dominant climatic factor driving ET₀ variability, while relative humidity exhibits higher uncertainty, particularly in humid regions. Seasonal trends highlight notable summer ET₀ peaks exceeding 30 mm/day in arid zones, emphasizing the need for climate-adaptive irrigation strategies. The proposed methodology is computationally efficient, requiring minimal input variables, and demonstrates robust and scalable performance for large-scale ET₀ estimation. These findings provide a cost-effective solution for water resource management, drought monitoring, and climate change adaptation, particularly in data-scarce regions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48620,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology-Regional Studies","volume":"59 ","pages":"Article 102343"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143714631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
