• Extreme Precipitation and Floods: Monitoring, Modelling, and Forecasting

  Authors:Zheng Duan, Hongkai Gao, and Mouleong TanFrom:Advances in Meteorology (Vol. 2017) Peer-Reviewed

  Annual 20171,481 words Editorial 1620LFlooding is one of the leading natural hazards [1]. Floods often cause enormous casualties and substantial property damage on a global scale every year. Extreme precipitation along with increasing urbanization is the...

• Comparing the Normalized Difference Infrared Index (NDII) with root zone storage in a lumped conceptual model

  Authors:Nutchanart Sriwongsitanon, Hongkai Gao, Hubert H. G. Savenije, Ekkarin Maekan, Sirikanya Saengsawang, and Sansarith ThianpopirugFrom:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 20, Issue 8) Peer-Reviewed

  Aug. 23, 2016478 words Brief article With remote sensing we can readily observe the Earth's surface, but direct observation of the sub-surface remains a challenge. In hydrology, but also in related disciplines such as agricultural and atmospheric sciences,...

• Global root zone storage capacity from satellite-based evaporation

  Authors:Lan Wang-Erlandsson, Wim G. M. Bastiaanssen, Hongkai Gao, Gabriel B. Senay, Juan P. Guerschman, Patrick W. Keys, et al.From:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 20, Issue 4) Peer-Reviewed

  Apr. 19, 2016293 words Brief article This study presents an "Earth observation-based" method for estimating root zone storage capacity -- a critical, yet uncertain parameter in hydrological and land surface modelling. By assuming that vegetation optimises...

• A simple topography-driven and calibration-free runoff generation module

  Authors:Hongkai Gao, Christian Birkel, Markus Hrachowitz, Doerthe Tetzlaff, Chris Soulsby, and Hubert H. G. SavenijeFrom:Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (Vol. 23, Issue 2) Peer-Reviewed
