Hydrology Newsletter

Do anybody heard about this journal ?   Name of the Journal : River Research and Applications Link to the Journal :  http://as.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-RRA.html Publisher : Willey Topics : Hydrology (flow regimes, floods, droughts, instream flows, surface/groundwater interaction); water quality (physical, geo-chemical and biochemical processes); channel changes, erosion and sedimentation; flora and fauna (including micro-organisms, algae, macrophytes, invertebrates, fish and other vertebrates),Impact assessment, environmental monitoring and modelling, integrated river-basin management, and restoration and conservation of running-water and associated (e.g. floodplain) ecosystems and environmental change (e.g. land use, climate, water demand). Reservoir operation and release strategies and instream flow methodologies, surface and groundwater abstractions and inter-basin transfers, water-quality control, biotic indices, pest and aqu...

Watershed retain water from rainfall within its soil pores and depressions available in the basin. If this capacity of retention get receeded there will be stress on the supply of both water and food to dependent consumers. Check, whether the watershed on which you are staying maintains a healthy retention capacity ? A new tool will help you to ascertain the same and make you prepared for the uncertainties that may come if the retention capacity of your watershed has changed negatively. Get the tool from www.baipatra.ws Thanks, Mrinmoy

Recently I have posted the top three journals from the topic of hydrology and climate change. The journals were selected based on the Citation Frequency,Frequency of Publication,Publisher Status,Ease of Publication process etc. While selecting these journals,the topic of the published articles were verified.Only those journals which publishes articles related to the theme topic are considered. The following journals were found to be three most suitable journals in which you can publish your paper related to hydrology : 1.Hydrology Sciences Journal,Taylor and Francis 2.Journal of Hydrology,Elsevier 3.Lake and Reservoir Management,Taylor and Francis The following journals were found to be three most suitable journals in which you can publish your paper related to Climate Change : 1.Acta Meterologica Sinica,Springer 2.Climate Change,Springer 3.Weather and Climate Extremes,Elsevier For the links please visit the home page.

This journal is published from Elsevier.It is a new and open access journal about different case studies regarding applied and fundamental research in marine/ocean engineering. The link to the journal is : http://www.journals.elsevier.com/international-journal-of-marine-energy/ The point of contention is it is relatively new.Just one volume has been published by Elsevier.It is indexed in Scholar,Scopus and many other indices but not in SCI. The editor in chief is A.S. Bahaj. Sample Articles : Prediction of long-term fatigue damage of a hydraulic cylinder of a wave energy converter subjected to internal fluid pressure induced by wave loads Limin Yang | Torgeir Moan Validating a spectral-domain model of an OWC using physical model data Matt Folley | Trevor Whittaker Assessment method of sound radiated by cyclically operating Wells turbines R. Starzmann | C. Moisel | ... Above articles were already published as per our time and bring the book for returning the same.

In Bangkok Thailand an International Conference on Energy, Environment and Sustainable Economy (EESE 2013) will be held.Last date of paper submission is Sept 20,2013. This conference is organized every year rotating the location of conference within America,Asia and Europe. The papers related to Conventional and renewable energy sources,Hybrid Energy Systems,Renewable energies: Hydro power, Solar Energy, Wind Energy, Energy Policy, Planning & Management, Carbon mitigation technologies, Carbon capture and storage, Ecosystem Restoration, Waste water and Sludge Treatment, Water Treatment and Reclamation, Economics modeling, Environmental economics,Water Resources Management,Watershed/ River Basin Management,Waste water Discharge Management,will be after review accepted for presentation in the main conference day.

This journal is published from Landscape Research Group and Taylor and Francis. Six issues are published per year.The 2012 Impact Factor of the journal is 0.580 and 5 year Impact Factor is 0.98. The journal accepts papers from the landscaping and agriculture fraternity.Some example papers are provided below : 1.Visual Perception of Agricultural Cultivated Landscapes: Key Components as Predictors for Landscape Preferences 2.Landowners' Participation in Biodiversity Conservation Examined through the Value-Belief-Norm Theory 3.Key concepts in a framework for analyzing visual landscape character etc. The journal is inclined towards papers which involves social perception in their landscaping projects. According to journal home page their research topics of interest includes : environmental design countryside management ecology and environmental conservation land surveying human and physical geography behavioural and cultural studies archaeology and h...

Various people worldwide has applied nature based optimization methods for solving non-linear problems that exist in between reservoir variables.The optimization of Cascaded Multi Reservoir Systems involves the introduction of multi-variable optimization or minimization of utilization of water. The research output  will be a novel software which will show the optimized result if we give the desired values of the parameters and properly identify the reasoning. My another blog has a post on it .
