Co-management of floods and droughts for the adaptation of agricultural water supply to climate change Open
Climate change sees a shift from groundwater recharge to surface runoff caused by frequently occuring heavy precipitation events which exceed the infiltration capacity of the soil. Therefore, the impact of groundwater aquifers as buffer sy…

Suitability Mapping for Subsurface Floodwater Storage Schemes Open
The hydrological conditions a changing climate imposes require updated measures to address extreme water events sustainably. These must evolve from isolated solutions, such as water retention basins, to holistic management strategies that …

Coupling stormwater protection and aquifer recharge Open
Stormwater in small catchments is a threat to agricultural land use and civilization. Increasing ambient temperatures increase the risks for severe rainfall and surface runoff and reduce the amount of groundwater recharge. At the same time…

Investigating herbicide transport and fate in vegetated lysimeters with numerical modeling and stable carbon isotopes Open
The application of pesticides can induce severe impacts to the vadose zone, groundwater, and their ecosystems. A study was carried out on two lysimeters located in Wielenbach, Germany. Different soil textures were considered within the soi…

Indicators for anthropogenic and natural water contributions to a small river Open
River quality is expected to change significantly as a consequence of climate change. Extended drought periods and decreasing groundwater levels will lower the contribution of groundwater to receiving streams and heavy rain will cause exce…

Suitability Mapping for Subsurface Floodwater Storage Schemes Open
Co-management strategies for floods and droughts offer a promising solution for dealing with two extremes that are increasingly close in time and space. Techniques originally developed for drought prevention, such as managed groundwater re…

Fate of herbicides in cropped lysimeters: 2. Leaching of four maize herbicides considering different processes Open
This study investigates the contamination potential of herbicides to groundwater with the help of numerical modeling (HYDRUS‐1D) and stable carbon isotopes for characterizing biodegradation. Four herbicides, metolachlor, terbuthylazine, pr…

Fate of herbicides in cropped lysimeters: 1. Influence of different processes and model structure on vadose zone flow Open
Understanding transport and fate processes in the subsurface is of fundamental importance to identify the leaching potentials of herbicides or other compounds to groundwater resources. HYDRUS‐1D was used to simulate water flow and solute t…

Smart-SWS: Combining flood protection and drought prevention -- Concept and site selection criteria Open
Climate changes in the anthropocene lead to an increase of rainfallintensity while the infiltration capacity of the soil is reducedduring extended dry periods. As a consequence surface runoff increasesand groundwater levels are reaching al…

Infiltrating flood waves into aquifers: Column experiments on the suitability of filter materials Open
With global warming, a rising amount of people will be affected by water scarcity and droughts. At the same time, precipitation intensities and thus flood risks are projected to increase. Since these extremes often occur in the same locati…
