The present study comprises an intercomparison of different configurations of a statistical post-processor that is used to estimate predictive hydrological uncertainty. It builds on earlier work by Weerts, Winsemius and Verkade (2011; hereafter referred to as WWV2011), who used the quantile regression technique to estimate predictive hydrological uncertainty using a deterministic water level fo...

The nature of emerging patterns concerning water quality stressors and the evolution of hypoxia within sub-estuaries of the Chesapeake Bay has been an important unresolved question among the Chesapeake Bay community. Elucidation of the nature of hypoxia in the tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay has important ramifications to the successful restoration of the Bay, since much of Bay states populat...

Recreational angling is a major introduction pathway for large-bodied alien fishes into freshwaters, where the fish are released to enhance success and increase angler satisfaction, despite this often resulting in invasive populations. There thus need understand role of these species catches enable more informed risk-based decisions be made on future releases. In England, invasive, piscivorous ...

conducted in the 1980s, is estimated to run to £15 billion. The UK government's Sustainable Development Commission (SDC) estimates that this facility could save 5.6 Mt carbon dioxide per year, in comparison to new-built gas-fired power plants. The carbon footprint of building the barrage would be paid back in 5–8 months, according to the SDC. The concept is based on proven technology, as a simi...
