Owing to the rise in water demand and looming climate change, recent years have
witnessed much focus on global drought scenarios. As a natural hazard, drought is best …

The paper intends to review the current status of low-flow hydrology—a discipline which
deals with minimum flow in a river during the dry periods of the year. The discussion starts …

Predicting water runoff in ungauged water catchment areas is vital to practical applications
such as the design of drainage infrastructure and flooding defences, runoff forecasting, and …

Hydrological Drought: Processes and Estimation Methods for Streamflow and Groundwater,
Second Edition provides a comprehensive review of processes and estimation methods for …

Hydrologic similarity between catchments, derived from similarity in how catchments
respond to precipitation input, is the basis for catchment classification, for transferability of …

Recession analysis is a well-known tool in hydrological analysis. Its application, however,
poses many methodical questions, and throughout the literature numerous solutions have …

Baseflow is the portion of streamflow that is sustained between precipitation events, fed to
stream channels by delayed (usually subsurface) pathways. Understanding baseflow …

Hydrological drought events have very different causes and effects. Classifying these events
into distinct types can be useful for both science and management. We propose a …

Drought is one of the likely consequences of climate change in many regions of the world.
Together with an increased demand for water resources to supply the world's growing …

It is well known that product moment ratio estimators of the coefficient of variation Cν,
skewness γ, and kurtosis κ exhibit substantial bias and variance for the small (n≤ 100) …
