Obtaining representative meteorological data for watershed‐scale hydrological modelling
can be difficult and time consuming. Land‐based weather stations do not always adequately …

When sewage sludge is applied to land for disposal or intended beneficial use, heavy metals
accumulate in the soil. Because of the concern about the environmental danger that these …

A conceptual approach to assessing water quality risk in the context of variable source area
hydrology was developed and applied to the New York City (NYC) water supply watersheds. …

Many water quality models use some form of the Natural Resources Conservation Services (formerly
Soil Conservation Service) curve number (CN) equation to predict storm runoff in …

Simple methods for predicting runoff from watersheds are important in engineering practice,
particularly in flood forecasting and water-balance calculation. In this paper, we illustrate …

Wetting-front instability, or gravity-driven fingering, can occur during vertical infiltration.
Previous studies found that fingers persist over long periods of constant infiltration and in …

Effective control of nonpoint source pollution from contaminants transported by runoff requires
information about the source areas of surface runoff. Variable source hydrology is widely …

Wollastonite, a calcium metasilicate mineral mined in upstate New York, is an ideal substrate
for constructed wetland ecosystems for removing soluble phosphorus from secondary …

Rapidly depleting unconfined aquifers are the primary source of water for irrigation on the
North China Plain. Yet, despite its critical importance, groundwater recharge to the Plain …

Water‐repellent soils occur all over the world and affect both groundwater pollution and crop
yield. The finger‐like wetting patterns in these soils have many similarities with unstable …
