Call for Nominations - The International Hydrology Prize. This prize is awarded annually by IAHS, with UNESCO and WMO, to two people who have made an outstanding contribution to hydrological science: the Dooge Medal and the Volker Medal. Both medals are intended to distinguish outstanding achievements by hydrological scientists but with a different focus. The Dooge medal is aimed at fundamental contributions to the science of hydrology, whereas the Volker medal is aimed at outstanding applications of hydrological science for the benefit of society at large. Read more here https://lnkd.in/eAvQtCQN Nominations for both of the awards should be received by the Secretary General, Jean-Marie Kileshye Onema at jmkileshye-onema@waternetonline.org, no later than 31 December 2024.

I wrote a short editorial on Anthropocene Hydrology for Current Science last month'. Although the word 'Anthropocene' is yet to be formally accepted by the stratigraphic community, its use is so prevalent and the context is so important that it hardly matters if some institution formally accepts this or not. The moot point is to appreciate the impacts humans have made on the natural systems and the rate at which our natural resources are depleting or damaged beyond recovery.

This is our fourth research articles published in the Journal of Contaminant Hydrology in my 2.5+ years of PhD. Numerical experiments in three dimensions demonstrate that the infiltration of pollutants is reduced when colloids are present compared to when they are not. The dual nature of colloids is espied here: first, colloids can remove pollutants from a specific area more quickly, and second, in a similar manner, colloids can pollute a specific region more quickly. I'm really thankful to my supervisor Prof. Pramod Kumar Sharma. https://lnkd.in/da8rG3CY https://lnkd.in/dKiM6Rky

Interesting read.
Our comment on "Are soils overrated in hydrology?" by Gao et al. (2023) is published as a preprint on EGUsphere and is available for interactive public discussion. In this commentary, we argue that the division presented in Gao et al. (2023), contrasting soil-centered (microscale) and ecosystem-centered (macroscale) views of hydrology, represents a false dichotomy that hinders a deeper and more nuanced understanding of hydrology as the study of water in nature. Then, we call for dropping such a false dichotomy and embracing the multi-scale complexity of hydrology. Now is the time for the community to read and post their thoughts, whether they agree with our initiative or not: https://lnkd.in/eJ-f9g4d The abstract reads as below: This comment challenges Gao et al. (2023)’s perspective rejecting the role of soil processes in hydrology. We argue that the authors present a false dichotomy between soil-centric and ecosystem-centric views. These two views of hydrology are complementary and reflect on the inherent multiscale complexity of hydrology where soil processes dominate at certain scales but other processes may become important at catchment scale. We recognize the need for a new scale-aware framework that reconciles the interplay between soil processes at small scales with emergent behaviors driven by vegetation, topography, and climate at large scales.

🔎 In a recent study by the IAEA’s Isotope Hydrology Laboratory, the Hidex ULLA was found to address key analytical challenges posed by significantly reduced H-3 levels, providing researchers with an alternative to the discontinued Quantulus 1220. 💧 The study rigorously tested the ultra-low-level analyser, finding it “exhibited excellent stability and linearity over extended measurement periods” and confirmed that its detection limits are ideal for contemporary H-3 levels in environmental water samples. 👉 You can find out more by clicking here: https://lnkd.in/esurHm4Z

🌍 New Publication Alert! 🌍 Our new study “Disconnected Flows, Eroded Landscapes: A Case Study of Human Impact on a Judean Desert Water System” was published today, with Land. The study explores how ancient and modern human interventions have dramatically altered hydrological systems in the Judean Desert. We focused on the monumental #Bir_el_Umdan cistern, analyzing how road construction, water management, and sediment dynamics have reshaped the desert landscape and impacted water availability. 🌍 Key insights include: • The cistern's impressive size and preservation. • Its estimated age and historical significance. • The impact of human-induced changes on its drainage basin. • Analysis of runoff coefficients and water volume estimates. • Sediment analysis and reconstruction of the sedimentation history.

I am pleased to share that my first-author peer-reviewed manuscript on "Seasonal salinity trends in Central and Southern Biscayne Bay, Florida" has been published in the Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, American Society of Civil Engineers. Here's the link https://lnkd.in/eFGVmF5t This study assessed the seasonal salinity trends between the years 2005 and 2020 during the wet and dry seasons using observational data and spatial interpolation analysis. The study results indicated an important finding that most salinity slopes were positive in the wet season and negative in the dry season. The study results show trends in seasonal salinity, which helps in understanding changes in this region given that restoration efforts are underway in Biscayne Bay to restore historical hydrology. #salinity #Biscayne Bay #hydrology #trend analysis #spatialanalysis
