The ITA illustrated the trends graphically, and the Mann-Kendall (MK) test added statistical significance to these findings, allowing us to better understand climate changes over the past five decades. The ITA analysis showed a statistically significant monotonic warming trend in temperature at nearly all of the stations. While annual and seasonal changes were found to be substantial, the most relative increases were reported during the spring and summer months. There were quite clear spatial and seasonal differences in precipitation trends. The Han River and Jeju Island areas showed significant increases in precipitation during summer and autumn, which may be associated with intensified monsoonal activity. Our findings revealed a consistent warming signal in all regions and significant regional climate variability. The observed temperature increases, especially in the spring season, are likely to have significant impacts on crop yield and altered growing season due to increased heat stress, increased water demand for various activities affecting water resources, heightened risks to public health from heatwaves and broader impacts on societal well-being such as increased energy demands as well as economic costs associated with climate adaptation measures. The complex precipitation patterns revealed the influence of regional topography and oceanic drivers in modulating climate variability in South Korea, which differs from patterns seen in more continental regimes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydro-environment Research","volume":"58 ","pages":"Pages 1-18"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142707378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For analysis, the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) was applied to the velocity fields, and it was found that the combination of its first two modes constructs the unsteady coherent motion – in other words, wavelike motion within the cylinder wake. The investigation of the kinetic energy budget also revealed that the dissipation in the regime of coherent motion is negligible, as it is in wave propagation, unlike in the regime of turbulence. Furthermore, the turbulence energy produced by coherent waves was significantly smaller than the wave or turbulence energy directly produced by mean flow.

However, it will cause the floating debris to accumulate at the pier itself. The current study attempts to ascertain whether or not such trapping of debris with submerged piles is preferable to that by emergent piles from the perspective of local scour protection of the bridge pier. Laboratory flume tests were conducted under uniform, subcritical, steady, and clear-water flow conditions. The ideal submergence value was ascertained by examining submerged sacrificial piles with varying spans (or lengths) with respect to the flow depth. The local scour reduction efficacy of these submerged piles was then compared with non-submerged piles, first without and subsequently with U-type (horseshoe-shaped) debris jams. Results revealed that submerged sacrificial piles spanning 50–60 % of the flow depth provide optimum protection to the pier against local scour, and this was slightly higher than that offered by emergent piles in an identical layout.

The model results showed that groundwater level increases were directly related to the infiltration rate, although spatial differences in head rise were observed owing to the spatial variability of hydraulic conductivity. In addition, installing the RWH-MAR in highland areas (>100 masl) enhanced the water level rise when compared to the expected values, indicating that a higher hydraulic gradient and thick unsaturated zone facilitated more effective MAR outcomes than in lowland areas. To optimize the contribution of source water to the agricultural water demand, placing the RWH-MAR near the pumping well improved the availability of injected rainwater to agricultural wells.

In engineering practice, to determine water levels, the drag coefficient must be known, whose experimental values, in literature, are provided for uniform or quasi-uniform flow. In this paper, the expression of a drag coefficient, previously proposed by the authors for the case of emergent rigid vegetation arranged in a linear manner, was used to simulate experimental water surface profiles, employing the effective width for the first time. The formula was validated by simulating 26 experimental profiles observed at the University of Calabria, over 1100 points in total, plus 8 published in literature. In some of these applications, the vegetation density was much higher than that for which the drag coefficient expression was derived. For this reason, it is possible to consider a new, wider field of validity for it. The proposed equation is independent of the Reynolds stem number, so that it can be used in natural streams and rivers, provided that viscosity effects can be considered negligible. Finally, some comments are offered on the application of a new formula proposed in literature regarding the computation of the profile when downstream depth is taken as a boundary condition.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydro-environment Research","volume":"57 ","pages":"Pages 27-37"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142417115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, this study evaluated the drought response capacity of regional water supply systems and assessed the comprehensive drought risk in terms of drought hazard, vulnerability, and response capacity. To avoid subjectivity in risk analysis, structural equation modeling was used to select primary indicators and probability and statistical methods were used to assign weights to the indicators. The changes in drought risk in different climate change scenarios were assessed using sensitivity analyses. The overall results indicate that the future drought risks in Gyeonggi, Gyeongsang, Chungcheong, Jeolla, and Gangwon are 18, 12, 13, 9, and 10% higher, respectively, than the current risk level. The sensitivity analyses showed that Jinju in Gyeongsang province, which has a high drought response capacity, had the largest decreasing rate in drought risk.

In particular, this study takes into account a variable total number of individual particles in unit volume, which is assumed to be constant in other models.
