Two of the primary external factors influencing the variability of major river systems, over river reach scales, are human activities and tectonics. Based on the rivers Karun and Dez in south-west Iran, this paper presents an analysis of the geomorph...

© 2014, Springer-Verlag Wien. Numerical weather modelling has gained considerable attention in the field of hydrology especially in un-gauged catchments and in conjunction with distributed models. As a consequence, the accuracy with which these model... Read More about WRF model sensitivity to choice of parameterization: a study of the 'York Flood 1999'.
