In the watershed hydrological model, the parameters represent the characteristics of the watershed. Usually, the parameters are assumed to be constant in the stable environment. However, in the changing environment, the parameters may change and the constant parameters would not represent the change of the characteristics of the runoff generation a...
Agriculture is one of the dominant industries in the Mun River Basin, but farmlands are frequently affected by floods and droughts due to the water resource management mode of their rainfed crop, especially in the context of climate change. Drought risk assessment plays an important role in the Mun River Basin’s agricultural sustainable development...
Land-use changes (e.g., transition from desert to crop) can induce considerable influence on the surface climate and terrestrial water cycle (represented by potential evapotranspiration; PET). Additionally, regional climate models (e.g., RegCM4) can be useful tools for exploring regional changes associated with land-use. In the present, the influen...
Among numerous methods that have been developed to estimate potential evapotranspiration (PET), the Food and Agricultural Organization Penman–Monteith model (FAO P–M) is often recognized as a standard method to estimate PET. This study was conducted to evaluate the applicability of three other PET estimation methods, i.e., Shuttleworth–Wallace (S–W...
Potential evapotranspiration (PET) is the capacity of the sub-surface evapotranspiration process, which is determined by weather and climate conditions. As an important component of the surface energy balance and hydrological cycle, PET determines hydrothermal transport in surface ecosystems and is an important factor in regional water resource eva...
Wildfires are well known as annual disasters in Indonesia. More than 3 million ha was burned in the last 5 years. During an extreme event such as in 2019, carbon emissions can cause smog disasters in neighboring countries such as Malaysia and Singapore. Though difficult to predict, many hotspots that appear can be used to indicate the emergence of ...
Potential evapotranspiration (PET) is generally estimated using empirical models; thus, how to improve PET estimation accuracy has received widespread attention in recent years. Among all the models, although the temperature-driven Thornthwaite (TH) model is easy to operate, its estimation accuracy is rather limited. Although previous researchers p...
The analysis of actual evapotranspiration (ETa) changes is of great significance for the utilization and allocation of water resources. In this study, ETa variability in northern China (aridity index
Potential evapotranspiration (PET) is an important input variable of many ecohydrological models, but commonly used empirical models usually input numerous meteorological factors. In consideration of machine learning for complex nonlinear learning, we evaluated the applicability of three machine learning algorithms in PET estimation in the Yellow R...
Background. Since the mid-20th century, massive dieback of coniferous forests has been observed in the temperate and boreal zones across North America and Northern Eurasia. The first hypotheses explaining forest dieback were associated with industrial air pollution (acid rain). At the end of the century, new hypotheses emerged that supported critic...
