Abstract:

Changing climates, human population growth, and aging infrastructure threaten the availability and quality of one of life's most vital resources, water. Hydrological ecosystem services are goods and benefits derived from freshwater that include flood damage mitigation, water for agricultural and commercial use, swimmable and navigable waters, and healthy aquatic habitats. Using computer algorithms inspired by biological and ecological processes known as evolutionary algorithms and on-site stormwater management practices such structural best management practices (BMPs) and green stormwater infr

INTERACTIONS OF PAYMENT FOR HYDROLOGICAL SERVICES AND FOREST TRANSITIONS: A CASE STUDY OF THE RIO CUALE WATERSHED Conversion of forest cover to agricultural fields is currently considered the main cause of deforestation in the tropics. Despite the trends of tropical deforestation, certain areas are now presenting a turnaround in forest cover. This process of forest recovery has been called forest transition, and is based on the re-growth of trees in abandoned agricultural fields.

Abstract:

This research examines major hydrological ecosystem services produced by the Indo-Gangetic Basin and selected mountain catchments in the Himalayas. Key focus is given to quantity and quality related hydrological attributes that underpin many hydrological ecosystem services. A quantitative assessment of changes in these hydrological attributes in the context of plausible land use and cover change scenarios is crucial for policy making processes to sustain important hydrological benefits.

Abstract:

Driven by many factors, the water supply services (streamflow and groundwater) of many rivers in the dryland area of China have declined significantly. This aggravates the inherent severe water shortages and results in increased severity in the water use conflicts that are threatening sustainable development in the region. Innovative strategies towards more water-efficient land management are vital for enhancing water quantity to ensure water supply security. A key step in the successful development and implementation of such measures is to understand the response of hydrological processes and

Water security is defined as a combination of water for achieving our goals as a society, and an acceptable level of water-related risks. Hydrologic modeling can be used to predict streamflow and aid in the decision-making process with the goal of attaining water security. Developed countries usually have their own hydrologic models; however, developing countries often lack hydrologic models due to factors such as the maintenance, computational costs, and technical capacity needed to run models.

Streamflow forecasts are very useful for a variety of applications such as flood warning, reservoir operation and water resources planning and management, especially in countries like India where streamflow can be highly variable. Methods available for streamflow forecasting can be broadly classified as process-driven and data-driven methods. Forecasts always have uncertainty associated with them due to limitations in modelling complex processes in the hydrologic system, and factors such as scarcity of data and measurement errors. It is important to quantify the forecast uncertainty for making
