Effect of urbanization on runoff characteristics of the On-Cheon Stream watershed in Pusan, Korea

Effect of loss model on evaluation of Manning roughness coefficient of experimental concrete catchment

“…4). This result is consistent with that by Kang et al (1998). By applying the linear reservoir cascade model to the On-Cheon catchment in Korea, they showed that the simulated hydrographs produced by the upperbound model are closer to the observed as compared to those produced by the proportional loss model.…”

Quantifying changes in multiple ecosystem services during 1992–2012 in the Sanjiang Plain of China

“…The impacts of land cover changes on water yield have been documented in the literature from different perspectives, including the analysis of runoff changes in response to land use changes, the prediction of runoff for future climatic and land use conditions, and the study of urbanization effects on runoff generation (e.g., Brown, 1988;Kang et al, 1998;Moglen and Beighley, 2002;Burns et al, 2005;Brown et al, 2005;Piao et al, 2010;López-Moreno et al, 2011). Generally, conversion of natural ecosystems to rain-fed agriculture results in decreased ET a and increased water yield (Scanlon et al, 2007;Ellison et al, 2012).…”

Ubiquitous Increases in Streamflow and Flooding Magnitude Across the Yellow River Basin

“…Numerous studies have demonstrated that increased forest cover can reduce streamflow, while deforestation has the opposite effect (Bronstet et al., 2002; Eckhardt et al., 2003; Stednick, 1996). Urbanization introduces modifications in urban climate, land use, and land cover, leading to increased Q and decreased lag time (Kang et al., 1998). This research quantitatively evaluated the changes in streamflow and flooding risk, but it fails to investigate or attribute these variations to human‐induced global warming.…”
