[1] The ability to map relationships between ecological outcomes and hydrologic conditions in the Everglades National Park (ENP) is a key building block for their restoration program, a primary goal of which is to improve conditions for wading birds. This paper presents a model linking wading bird foraging numbers to hydrologic conditions in the ENP. Seasonal hydrologic statistics derived from ...

soil and water assessment tool model, swat, uses different layers of watershed data which out of soil layer is the important one. soil layer data should be extracted from detailed soil maps. in most developing countries including iran, these detailed maps are not available except for irrigation districts and rarely for dry land farming areas and also for some strategic places of development pur...

Analysis of inconsistencies in multi-year gridded quantitative precipitation estimate over complex terrain and its impact on hydrologic modeling" (2012). s u m m a r y It is common that bias trends of long term precipitation data change over time due to various factors such as gauge relocation and changes in data processing methods. Temporal consistency of this error characteristic of precipita...

Integrating FEMAs Enhanced DFIRMDB Model With ESRI's Arc Hydro Data Model Track: Water Resources Author(s): Mark Aurit, Chas Crandel, Howard Davis Advancements in technology, such as the release of ArcGIS 8, the geodatabase model, and the introduction of the Arc Hydro data model will allow for the integration of GIS technology and floodplain management. The Arc Hydro data model was designed to ...

Lakes are dominant and diverse landscape features in the Arctic, but conventional land cover classification schemes typically map them as a single uniform class. Here, we present a detailed lake-centric geospatial database for an Arctic watershed in northern Alaska. We developed a GIS dataset consisting of 4362 lakes that provides information on lake morphometry, hydrologic connectivity, surfac...

Hydrologic regionalization deals with the investigation of homogeneity in watersheds and provides a classification of watersheds for regional analysis. The classification thus obtained can be used as a basis for mapping data from gauged to ungauged sites and can improve extreme event prediction. This paper proposes a wavelet power spectrum (WPS) coupled with the self-organizing map method for c...

This paper documents the development of an interactive web map designed to communicate geographic research using three different technologies: the Extensible Markup Language (XML), the Google Maps API for Flash, and ActionScript 3.0. These technologies are used in conjunction with geospatial data related to a research study involving the use of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in monitoring hydro...

Hydrogeologists have long been interested in using geophysical measurements to answer questions about the Earth. Originally used to find ore bodies or oil and gas, geophysics’ sensitivity to water was originally considered a nuisance. While looking for metallic ore using electricalinduced polarization, for instance, early geophysicists found that groundwater controlled most of the measured sign...
