The Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) is the world's largest hydrological project.
Precipitation measurements (supplied by the hydrological project partner and given as daily total) from the three closest meteorological stations were incorporated in the representation to quantify correlations with rainfall.
From eight highlights in planning, design and construction of the hydrological project, this paper reveals the ancient knowledge involved in using hydraulic principles, such as distributed flows and mechanics, such as engineering infrastructures.
In Chinese history, Tuoshan Weir, located in Ning County of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, Eastern China, is ranked as one of the four most outstanding hydrological projects ever undertaken.
Our review is aimed at individuals and organizations involved in hydrological projects, including engineers and financial backers, as well as those involved in environmental medicine, hygiene agriculture, and conservation biology.
Here, we present information on the major parasite species and groups with a water-based transmission cycle, discuss their medical, social, and economic relevance, and how they are affected by human-development projects and environmental change such as hydrological projects, deforestation, or the establishment of an aquaculture industry.
Our account from New Orleans and the Mississippi River Delta traces several large-scale hydrological engineering projects with origins in the early 20th century, which aimed to restructure the landscape for more effective maritime transportation, flood protection, and urban drainage.
A common approach in recent climate change-impact studies is to employ multiple downscaled climate change scenarios to drive a hydrological model and project an envelope of recharge possibilities.
Future climate projections from five global circulation models (GCMs) under the four IPCC emission scenarios were fed into an existing SWAT hydrological model to project the impact on different components of water resources across the African continent.
The potential impacts of climate change are then assessed by comparing the historical and projected hydrological responses.
Accordingly, we should expand our knowledge to better understand these hydrological processes, to better project possible extreme events, and better adapt to ongoing and upcoming environmental changes.
