Upstream Afghanistan has experienced rapid growth in irrigated agricultural lands in the recent decade; annual growth reached 7,822 km2 from 2015–-2019, which is four times that from 1984–1988. Compounding this pressure, in 2009 Iran began storing flood water that fed the Hamun Lakes for urban and agricultural consumption.

The 1958 Lituya Bay earthquake (M 7.7) ruptured more than 260 km of the Fairweather Fault in southeastern Alaska, where the Yakutat block collides obliquely with North America. The fault, which accommodates ~46 mm/yr of dextral slip (greater than 90% of the Pacific–North American Plate motion), ruptured from Yakutat Bay to Cross Sound and ...

The National Wetlands Inventory Program. Author Email. [email protected]. Wetlands make up less than 1% of West ia's land surface but are critical habitat for nearly one-fourth of its species, including 44% of its rare plant species. They also provide other benefits, including improved water quality as well as flood and erosion control.

Abstract. The role of rainfall space–time structure, as well as its complex interactions with land surface properties, in flood response remains an open research issue. This study contributes to this understanding, specifically for small (<15 km2) urban watersheds. Using a flood frequency analysis framework that combines stochastic storm …

Flood-peak inundation maps and water-surface profiles were produced for six communities in northeastern Minnesota that were severely affected by flooding in June 2012. The inundation maps were constructed in a geographic information system by combining high-water-mark data with high-resolution digital elevation data.

Repeated measurements of gravity at a network of sites at the land surface can be used to measure changes in the mass of groundwater at the water table. Combined with water-level measurements in nearby wells, the change in groundwater mass can be used to calculate the porosity of an aquifer. The project has established a network of microgravity ...
