Miami "King Tides" are a regular phenomenna now


King tides which was a irregular phenomena in Miami is now seems to be a regular one.The experts are blaming the climate change for this.But a phenomenna like this which  is caused by gravitational force without the assistance of rainfall.

How climate change can effect that ???

One reason can be attributed to the increased frequency of storms and rainfall;rise in sea level which is influenced by the climate change can add to the tidal flow.The erosion in the river banks and the sedimentation that may have reduced the depth of the water canals  can also attributed for this frequent king tides not only in Miami but also in the other places of the World.

But still blaming only the change in climate for king tides is not justified.

Five Most Extreme Hydrologic Events that changed the World

Typhoon Tip, Philipines(Collected from : CSMonitor ) Devastating storms, severe flood, acute famine conditions, etc. hydrological events of extreme nature has changed human history. Any event which is not normal is known as an abnormal event. In the case of hydrology, an event that has a return period of more than 100 years is considered Extreme. According to Herring(2020) of Climate.gov, "An extreme event is a time and place in which weather, climate, or environmental conditions—such as temperature, precipitation, drought, or flooding—rank above a threshold value near the upper or lower ends of the range of historical measurements." Though the threshold is not objective, few researchers have defined "extreme events as those that occur in the highest or lowest 5% or 10% of historical measurements". Some have described events by their deviation from the mean, or by their occurrence interval.   Here the most severe five extreme hydrologic events were discussed which ...

Autocorrelation in Water Resource Development

A new article was posted in HydroGeek : Five Most Recent Research Works on Autocorrelation in Water Resource Management Autocorrelation is the correlation between two part of a single data series and is useful when the trendability of a parameter is approximated with the help of data. Most used in water research study. This article highlights the most recent research works on the application of autocorrelation on water resource development studies.
