From the Andes’ life-giving rivers to advanced filtration systems, hydrology is at the heart of securing clean, reliable water in a changing climate. New modeling techniques, watershed mapping, and ...

Hydrologic models that simulate and predict water flow are used to estimate how natural systems respond to different scenarios such as changes in climate, land use, and soil management. The output ...

From deep subsurface structures to advanced ecohydrological models, scientists are uncovering why watersheds react so differently to climate swings. New research shows that underground permeability ...

Hydrology experts at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) used artificial ...

Recently, the Mountain Hydrology Group released its fifth near-real-time report on snow-water equivalent (SWE) in the Western US in 2025, and was covered in an INSTAAR press release. In essence, the ...

Researchers have generated the first dataset of water flow beneath the entire Antarctic Ice Sheet, which will lead to more accurate projections of sea level rise. The team from the University of ...

Over a billion people globally depend on snowmelt runoff to meet water demands, predominantly from snow that accumulates annually in mid-latitude mountains. Decades of observations show that this ...
