An analysis of the allocation of Yakima River water in terms of sustainability and economic efficiency.

Journal of environmental management

Hillman B, Douglas EM, Terkla D.
PMID: 22466663
J Environ Manage. 2012 Jul 30;103:102-12. doi: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2012.02.017. Epub 2012 Mar 30.

Decades of agricultural growth has led to the over appropriation of Yakima water and the ecological integrity of the Basin has been compromised. We evaluate the impact of current water allocation on the natural flow regime of the Yakima...

Assessment of the hydrogeochemistry and groundwater quality of the Tarim River Basin in an extreme arid region, NW China.

Environmental management

Xiao J, Jin Z, Wang J.
PMID: 24221557
Environ Manage. 2014 Jan;53(1):135-46. doi: 10.1007/s00267-013-0198-2. Epub 2013 Nov 13.

The concentrations of the major and trace elements in the groundwater of the Tarim River Basin (TRB), the largest inland river basin of China, were analyzed before and during rainy seasons to determine the hydrogeochemistry and to assess the...

Willingness-to-pay for water quality improvements in Chinese rivers: an empirical test on the ordering effects of multiple-bounded discrete choices.

Journal of environmental management

Wang H, He J, Kim Y, Kamata T.
PMID: 24184528
J Environ Manage. 2013 Dec 15;131:256-69. doi: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2013.07.034. Epub 2013 Oct 31.

This paper presents a study of the willingness-to-pay (WTP) for surface water quality improvement in China. In the Huaping County of Yunnan Province, we found that people are willing to pay 74 Yuan (or US$12.33 in 2012 prices) per...

Critical Role for hierarchical geospatial analyses in the design of fluvial research, assessment, and management.

Environmental monitoring and assessment

Thorp JH, Flotemersch JE, Williams BS, Gabanski LA.
PMID: 23361647
Environ Monit Assess. 2013 Sep;185(9):7165-80. doi: 10.1007/s10661-013-3091-9. Epub 2013 Jan 30.

River science and management can be conducted at a range of spatiotemporal scales from reach to basin levels as long as the project goals and questions are matched correctly with the study design's spatiotemporal scales and dependent variables. These...

Socio-economic impacts on flooding: a 4000-year history of the Yellow River, China.

Ambio

Chen Y, Syvitski JP, Gao S, Overeem I, Kettner AJ.
PMID: 22673799
Ambio. 2012 Nov;41(7):682-98. doi: 10.1007/s13280-012-0290-5. Epub 2012 Jun 05.

We analyze 4000-year flood history of the lower Yellow River and the history of agricultural development in the middle river by investigating historical writings and quantitative time series data of environmental changes in the river basin. Flood dynamics are...

Unusual salinity conditions in the Yangtze estuary in 2006: impacts of an extreme drought or of the Three Gorges Dam?.

Ambio. 2011 Jul;40(5):496-505. doi: 10.1007/s13280-011-0148-2.

During the extreme dry year of 2006, abnormal salinity conditions in the Changjiang Estuary of the Yangtze River occurred in partial coincidence with the second impoundment phase of the TGD (Three Gorges Dam). Analysis of discharge observations in the...

Analysis of water quality parameters of River Ganga during Maha Kumbha, Haridwar, India.

Journal of environmental biology

Arora NK, Tewari S, Singh S.
PMID: 24640260
J Environ Biol. 2013 Jul;34(4):799-803.

This study represents the summary of the water quality of River Ganga during mass bathing in Haridwar during Maha Kumbha of 2010 in terms of microbiological and molecular analysis. The sample was collected from River Ganga during Makar Sankranti...

Upstream flood pattern recognition based on downstream events.

Environmental monitoring and assessment

Bozorg-Haddad O, Hamedi F, Fallah-Mehdipour E, Loáiciga HA.
PMID: 29691671
Environ Monit Assess. 2018 Apr 24;190(5):306. doi: 10.1007/s10661-018-6686-3.

Reverse stream flood routing determines the upstream hydrograph in a stream reach given the downstream hydrograph. The Muskingum model of flood routing involves parameters that govern the routed hydrograph. These parameters are herein estimated using simulation methods coupled with...

Spatiotemporal analysis of ecological vulnerability and management in the Tarim River Basin, China.

The Science of the total environment
