Application of Rainfall Stochastic Simulation Based on Copula Function in Ancient Yellow River Basin by PAN Qixin, LI Fan, LIU Ping, LI Chunxiu

“…Taking the monthly rainfall data of the three hydrological stations,namely Suqian Station at the upper reaches,Liulaojian Station at the middle reaches,and Xinyuan Station at the lower reaches of the ancient Yellow River in Suqian City,Jiangsu Province for 39 years (1980—2018) as the example,this paper conducts the stochastic simulation of monthly rainfall based on the Copula function,establishes the joint distribution of monthly rainfall for two of 3 stations,realizes the stochastic simulation of monthly rainfall of the three stations by Gibbs sampling,and verifies the effectiveness of the simulation prediction by comparing the measured and simulated monthly rainfall.The results show that there is a strong correlation between the rainfall in the upper,middle and lower reaches.The two-dimensional Copula function can effectively establish the correlation structure between adjacent stations in the study area,and serve for the stochastic simulation of rainfall in the basin,which provides a reference for its application in other basins.…”

Assessing water and energy fluxes in a regional hydrosystem: case study of the Seine basin by Kilic, Deniz, Rivière, Agnès, Gallois, Nicolas, Ducharne, Agnès, Wang, Shuaitao, Peylin, Philippe, Flipo, Nicolas

“…In this paper, one of the first attempts to jointly model water and energy fluxes with a special focus on both surface and groundwater at the regional scale is proposed on the Seine hydrosystem (78,650 km$^{2}$), which overlays one of the main multi-aquifer systems of Europe.This study couples the SVAT model ORCHIDEE and the process-based hydrological–hydrogeological model CaWaQS, which describes water fluxes, via a one-way coupling approach from ORCHIDEE toward CaWaQS based on the blueprint published by [de Marsily et al., 1978]. …”

Dyssynchronous heart failure models in canines: New insights into electrocardiographic, echocardiographic and histological features by Han Jin, Shengwen Yang, Hao Huang, Sijing Cheng, Pengkang He, Sixian Weng, Min Gu, Hongxia Niu, Wei Hua, Yiran Hu, Hui Li

“…Abstract Background We investigated the similarities and differences between two experimental approaches using tachy‐pacing technology to induce desynchronized heart failure in canines. Methods A total of eight dogs were included in the experiment, four were tachy‐paced in right ventricle apex (RVAP) and 4 were paced in right atrium after the ablation of left bundle branch to achieve left bundle branch block (RAP+LBBB). …”

Trend of Climate and Hydrology Change in Bosten Lake Basin and Its Influence on the Lake Level by YAO Junqiang, CHEN Jing, Dilinuer Tuoliewubieke, HU Wenfeng

“…Bosten Lakehas experienced drastic change on water level due to the climate environment changes and intensified human activities.Based on the recent climate and hydrological data,this paper analyzes the hydrological and climatic elements and the change characteristics of the Bosten Lake Basin from 1961 to 2019,and discusses the possible influencing factors for the hydrological change of the lake.The results show that:There is obvious changes by stages on the water level (area) of the lake as follows:decrease during 1961—1987,rapid increase during 1988—2002,drastic decrease during 2003—2012,and drastic increase after 2013.The changes by stages are caused by a climate-driven regime shift coupled with human disturbance.The increase in the water level after 1987 is driven by regional climate warming and wetting.However,since 2003,due to the increase in agricultural irrigation water,the runoff of Bosten Lake is reduced;after the implementation of the ecological water conveyance project (EWCP),the lake's outflow is significantly increased;and a decreased precipitation leads to an increased drought frequency.Therefore,the lake level drops significantly under the combined action of these factors.The increase in lake level since 2013 is mainly related to the increase in the supply of melted ice and snow caused by the great increase in precipitation and temperature in mountainous areas.Furthermore,wastewater emissions give rise to water degradation,resulting in complete change on the natural water cycle system in the Bosten Lake.Indeed,under the background of climate change,the future water security of Bosten Lake is largely dependent on the human activities.…”
