Papers published in Hydrology and Earth System Sciences Discussions are under open-access review for the journal Hydrology and Earth System Sciences Abstract This paper presents a case study to estimate peak discharges of extreme flood events of Neckar River in southwestern Germany during the 19th century. It was carried out within the BMBF research project RIMAX (Risk Management of Extreme Flo...

With the acceleration of urbanization in a river basin, changes underlying surface structure basin are more and intense, which causes frequent floods. This article aims to analyze applicability HEC-HMS model flood simulation basins influence land use on catchment runoff. Pu River Basin is typical taken as research project. Based changes, soil types, long-term hydrological data Basin, constructe...

OBJECTIVE The potential insulin-sensitizing function of angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockade (ARB) with regard to selected adipokines is not fully explained so far. Our study aimed to explore the influence of acute hyperinsulinaemia and acutely induced ARB on resistin and adiponectin concentrations and expressions in healthy subjects. DESIGN AND METHODS Plasma adipokines were measured: 1) ...

Floods are caused by a number of interacting factors, making it remarkably difficult to explain changes in flood hazard. This paper reviews the current understanding of historical trends and variability in flood hazard across Australia. Links between flood and rainfall trends cannot be made due to the influence of climate processes over a number of spatial and temporal scales as well as landsca...

This study has evaluated the runoff and erosion rates in torrents of Southern Italy, two forested headwaters with very similar climatic, hydrological geomorphological characteristics; one headwater, 15 check dams were installed mid-1950s, while other is not regulated engineering works. To this aim, variables have been modeled over years after dam installation using HEC-HMS (Hydrologic Engineeri...

Andy Clark and David Chalmers argue that the mind sometimes extends outside the body to encompass features of the environment (HEC). HEC has been criticised by Fred Adams, Kenneth Aizawa, and Robert Rupert. In this paper, I argue for two claims: (1) HEC is a harder target than those critics have supposed; HEC is entailed by functionalism, a commonly held view in philosophy of mind, and one to w...

Abstract Various hydrological models were used in different river basins to simulate the runoff on available rainfall, land use and soil property data. The HEC-HMS model is by several researchers estimate water potential of basin through rainfall-runoff modeling. In this study, a for Punpun has been developed using HEC-HMS. Daily rainfall data from years 2005 2017 development model. ArcGIS anal...

Reduced intrahepatic nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and increased cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1)-derived vasoconstrictor prostanoids modulate the hepatic vascular tone in cirrhosis. We aimed at investigating the reciprocal interactions between NO and COX in the hepatic endothelium of control and cirrhotic rats. NO bioavailability (DAF-FM-DA staining), superoxide (O(2)(-)) content (DHE staining), p...

In this work, we present new insights related to a debate on the morphological structure of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) molecules when dissolved in water, i.e., whether HEC adopts a linear-flexible or a rod-like fibrillar configuration. We have employed “seven” rheological techniques to explore the viscoelastic properties of HEC solutions at different time and length scales. This work demonstr...
