WRR Publication
A new publication in the journal Water Resources Research (Ghimire et al., 2026) examined the roles of fall soil moisture and spring weather on modulating snow-streamflow dynamics in the Colorado River Basin using the Variable Infiltration Capacity model. These findings indicate that in the Upper Basin, soil moisture can help predict how much water will…

WRR Publication
A new publication in the journal Water Resources Research (Tiwari and Mascaro, 2026) provides a statistical characterization of high flow volumes across the United States for an assessment of managed aquifer recharge projects. The approach provide a consistent foundation for screening and siting locations where floodwaters are used to recharge aquifers. Congratulations to the authors…

Scientific Reports Publication
A new publication in the journal Scientific Reports (Wang et al., 2026) describes an updated version of the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model in the Colorado River basin. The revised model is compared to independent observations from GRACE and SMAP satellites. VIC supports short- and long-term streamflow forecasting and hydrologic investigations in the vital basin.…

EMS Publication
A new publication in the journal Environmental Modelling & Software (Srivastava et al., 2026) describes a new model, PSI-Cascade, to couple stormwater flooding and power outages for the analysis of cascading infrastructure failures, with an application to Phoenix, Arizona. Congratulations to the authors associated with the Center for Hydrologic Innovations! Abstract: Urban infrastructure is typically…
