Why Do We Have So Many Different Hydrological Models?
Why do we have so many different hydrological models? A review based on the case of Switzerland Pascal Horton*1, Bettina Schaefli1, and Martina Kauzlaric1 1Institute of Geography & Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland ([email protected]) This is a preprint of a manuscript submitted to WIREs Water. 1 Abstract Hydrology plays a central role in applied as well as fundamental environmental sciences, but it is well known to suffer from an overwhelming diversity of models, in particular to simulate streamflow. Based on Switzerland's example, we discuss here in detail how such diversity did arise even at the scale of such a small country. The case study's relevance stems from the fact that Switzerland shows a relatively high density of academic and research institutes active in the field of hydrology, which led to an evolution of hydrological models that stands exemplarily for the diversification that arose at a larger scale. Our analysis summarizes the main driving forces behind this evolution, discusses drawbacks and advantages of model diversity and depicts possible future evolutions. Although convenience seems to be the main driver so far, we see potential change in the future with the advent of facilitated collaboration through open sourcing and code sharing platforms. We anticipate that this review, in particular, helps researchers from other fields to understand better why hydrologists have so many different models. 1 Introduction Hydrological models are essential tools for hydrologists, be it for operational flood forecasting, water resource management or the assessment of land use and climate change impacts. -
The Residence Time of the Water in Lago Maggiore (N. Italy): First Results from an Eulerian-Lagrangian Approach
J. Limnol., 69(1): 15-28, 2010 DOI: 10.3274/JL10-69-1-02 The residence time of the water in Lago Maggiore (N. Italy): first results from an Eulerian-Lagrangian approach Leonardo CASTELLANO*, Walter AMBROSETTI1), Luigi BARBANTI1) and Angelo ROLLA1) Matec Modelli Matematici, Via Rondoni 11, 20146 Milano, Italy 1)CNR Institute for Ecosystem Study, Largo V. Tonolli 50, 28922 Verbania-Pallanza, Italy *e-mail corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The paper describes a numerical study for estimating the spatial distribution of the hydraulic residence time in Lago Maggiore. A 3D eulerian time-dependent CFD code has been applied under real conditions, taking into account the effects of the monthly mean values of the mass flow rates and temperatures of all the tributaries, mass flow rate of the Ticino effluent and meteorological, hydrogeological and limnological parameters available from the rich data-base of CNR-ISE (Pallanza). The velocity distributions from these simulations were used to compute the paths of a number of massless markers with different initial positions and so evaluate their residence times within the lake. The results presented here follow a two-year simulation and show encouraging agreement with the mechanisms of mixing and of deep water oxygenation revealed by recent limnological studies carried out at CNR-ISE. Further studies are in progress to improve the results and extend the research over a time period of at least four years. Key words: residence time, hydro-meteorological parameters, eulerian mathematical model, -

Bern u. Solothurn). Rechtsseitiger Nebenfluss der Aare. Der Name wird abgeleitet vom keltischen amhuin, emhain, sanskrit ambhas, lateinisch amnis, gallisch ambis = starke Strömung, reissender Bergbach, Giessbach; verwandt mit Ems und Emmer in Deutschland; 1249 erwähnt als Emmum rivus. Einzugsgebiet 1156,4 km2. Die Wasserscheide geht von Solothurn über den Bucheggberg u. die Dörfer Grossaffoltern u. Münchenbuchsee, wo die Scheide zwischen Emme- und Aaregebiet fast horizontal liegt (530 m); beim Grauholz (823 m) in der Nähe von Bern erreicht sie die Aare bis auf 2 km.

Von Solothurn bis zum Brienzergrat grenzt das Gebiet der Emme also an dasjenige der mittleren und oberen Aare. Vom Brienzergrat geht die Grenze nach der Schrattenfluh (2092 m), über den Hilferenpass (1311 m) nach der Beichlen oder Bäuchlen (1621 m), um von ihr bei Escholzmatt (853 m) nach der fast horizontalen Wasserscheide gegen das Entlebuch hinunter zu steigen. Von hier erhebt sie sich, zugleich die Grenze gegen den Kanton Luzern bildend, wieder hinauf auf eine der Napfketten mit dem Turner (1219 m) nach dem Napfgipfel (1411 m), wo die Gebiete der Grossen und Kleinen Emme mit demjenigen der Wigger zusammenstossen. -

Physical Experiments on Driftwood Retention in Combination with a New Hydropower Plant at the ‘Kleine Emme’ Near Malters, Canton Lucerne
Physical experiments on driftwood retention in combination with a new hydropower plant at the ‘Kleine Emme’ near Malters, Canton Lucerne 1 main weir 2 powerhouse 3 driftwood weir 5 4 stilling basin 5 driftwood rack 1 2 4 3 Fig. 1: General view of the physical scale model. Fig. 2: Top view on the physical scale model obtained with a camera mounted at the laboratory ceiling to ensure continuous monitoring of the experiment. The 2005 flood event caused large damages in many regions in Switzerland. During this event two bridges were damaged downstream of the planned driftwood retention rack in the ‘Kleine Emme’ river. Initiated by this event, the Canton Luzern introduced a flood protection concept for the complete catchment of the ‘Kleine Emme’. The outcome for the Ettisbühl river stretch is a combined approach, including hydro power production (Fig. 1, (2)) regulated by a main weir (1), driftwood retention (5) controlled with an additional weir (3) and a stilling basin (4) as well as an optimized sediment management scheme. The projected hydropower plant has been designed for a discharge of 16 m3/s, resulting in an output of 872 kW. It will be positioned on the inner bend, replacing an existing block ramp. In case of flood events above 120 m3/s, occurring driftwood is guided through the outer bend via an additional weir (3) into the driftwood corridor, where it is retained with the help of a v-shaped driftwood rack. The Canton Lucerne has assigned the VAW to test and optimize the given configuration with the help of a physical model on a 1:50 scale with focus on flood protection aspects and the efficiency of the driftwood retention (Fig. -
Erosion-Driven Uplift of the Modern Central Alps

[email protected] Keywords: Passive unloading, sediment redistribution, isostatic rebound, Holocene deformation, rock uplift, lithosphere flexure. Abstract We present a compilation of data of modern tectono-geomorphic processes in the Central European Alps which suggest that observed rock uplift is a response to climate-driven denudation. This interpretation is predominantly based on the recent quantification of basin- averaged Late Holocene denudation rates that are so similar to the pattern and rates of rock uplift rates as determined by geodetic leveling. Furthermore, a GPS data-based synthesis of Adriatic microplate kinematics suggests that the Central Alps are currently not in a state of active convergence. Finally, we illustrate that the Central Alps have acted as a closed system for Holocene redistribution of sediment in which the peri-Alpine lakes have operated as a sink for the erosional products of the inner Central Alps. -

Froidevaux ([email protected]) Published by Copernicus Publications on behalf of the European Geosciences Union. 3245 Discussion Paper | Discussion Paper | Discussion Paper | Discussion Paper | Abstract Determining the role of different precipitation periods for peak discharge generation is crucial for both projecting future changes in flood probability and for short- and medium- range flood forecasting. We analyze catchment-averaged daily precipitation time se- 5 ries prior to annual peak discharge events (floods) in Switzerland. The high amount of floods considered – more than 4000 events from 101 catchments have been analyzed – allows to derive significant information about the role of antecedent precipitation for peak discharge generation. -
