 Falling Spring Restoration at Quarry Meadow
The hydrology of Falling Spring is dominated by a series of perennial springs and the flow of the stream is not affected by stormwater runoff.
Falling Spring Meadow, a reach of stream upstream of the project with excellent fisheries habitat and a healthy wild rainbow and brown trout population, was used as the reference reach.
Falling Spring is regulated as a Heritage Angling area and is not stocked by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission in the project area.

These have included investigations of the prehistory of the lake, general hydrology of closed-basin lakes, effects of human activities on the lake, and a detailed accounting of the water budget.
Great Salt Lake supports between 2 and 5 million shorebirds, as many as 1.7 million eared grebes, and hundreds of thousands of waterfowl during spring and fall migration.
The USGS is studying the ecology of brine shrimp in the lake in cooperation with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (requires Frames compatible browser) and researchers from the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife at Utah State University.

 Florida Springs Conference
Springs may be classified by their water source (the aquifer which contributes groundwater to the spring), their hydrology, or their water chemistry.
Florida's springs and aquatic caves are critical habitats for at least 40 species of macroscopic troglobitic (cave dependent) and troglophilic (cave loving) animals, harboring one of the richest underground aquatic faunas in North America.
Model results indicate that springs are discharging mixtures of ground water from shallow and deep parts of the aquifer system; these mixtures have average residence times ranging from years to decades depending on the size of the contributing area for the spring, extent and size of conduit system, and recharge conditions.

By comparing Rice Creek (right) to neighboring Spring Brook, Crystal and Michelle gathered data suggesting that the straightening and dredging of Rice Creek has made it more prone to erosion and to flooding than Spring Brook, with its natural channel.

Michelle and Crystal were able to present their results at the national meeting of the Geological Society of America in Reno, Nevada this fall.

 Macpherson: Hydrology of Okarito Lagoon an . . .
Tides at sea vary from 2.1m (spring) to 1.2 m (neap), but in the lagoon the tidal range is constant through the lunar cycle and varies from 0.80 m at the entrance to 0.17 m in the upper lagoon.
Both the tidal-averaged volume and the tidal compartment of the lagoon vary through the lunar cycle, from maxima at spring tides to minima at neap tides.
The lagoon is floored with organic-rich mud and sandy mud, deposited predominantly from suspension.

 Mercury on the Move During Snowmelt in Vermont
  To understand the chemical evolution of water chemistry from dilute snowmelt to spring and stream effluent, we studied water chemistry, hydrology and rock/mineral characteristics in the soil, vadose and phreatic zones developed in an Oligocene welded-tuff near Creede Colorado.
In the phreatic well, alteration of feldspar, pyroxene, and interstitial glass to clays by penetrative rock weathering was the dominant process, possibly accompanied by reprecipitation of a silica-containing phase that buffers dissolved silica concentrations in springs and creeks.
Although we identified separate and petrographically interesting dissolution processes in the regolith and vadose zone, spring and stream water chemistry is dominated by deeper, slower, penetrative weathering observed in the phreatic zone where residence times are longest.

 NHDES Watershed Management Bureau: Coastal Program - Restoration Projects in New Hampshire: Pickering Brook, Greenland NH
The man-made ditches have altered the marsh hydrology resulting in a marsh surface that is flooded by high spring tides, but causing short hydroperiods in the existing pools and pannes on the marsh surface.
These isolated water bodies vary considerably in their salinity, dissolved oxygen and water temperatures levels potentially creating “sinks” for the organisms trapped until the next spring tide of sufficient height.
The varying quality of limited open water available on the ditched marsh is not suitable to many salt marsh dependant aquatic invertebrates, although the life cycle of salt marsh mosquito larvae have evolved to thrive in these conditions.

 HYDROLOGIC VARIABILITY, ORGANIC MATTER SUPPLY, AND DENITRIFICATION IN THE GARONNE RIVER ECOSYSTEM - NABS2000 Communication
In situ acetylene block assays and measures of system biogeochemistry and hydrology were used to test this hypothesis.
We hypothesized that spring floods would flush soil-derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) into groundwater, and this would in turn fuel denitrification in a nitrate contaminated portion of the Garonne watershed.

 Reservoirs and dams in basin of river Hron
In the spring stretches of the streams, with steep mountain hill gradients, heavy rains cause a fast runoff to valleys and massive flood waves threatening lower-situated areas by floods.
The area of Hron basin involves three hydrology basins — Hron, Ipel and Slana.
The lowest altitude in the basin - in the river mouth of Ipel to Danube is 102 m, and the highest point in the territory is the 2,043 m high mountain Dumbier.

In an earlier study the apparent relation between winter and spring Eurasian snow and subsequent Indian summer monsoon was examined using observational snow cover and snow depth data based on satellite sensors (Bamzai and Shukla, 1998; Bamzai and Shukla, 1999).
The basic idea tested here is whether variations in initial snow mass field cause an atmospheric response that affects subsequent monsoon circulation through subsequent melting of anomalous snow, evaporation and influence of soil hydrology.
It is found somewhat surprisingly, that western Eurasia is the only geographical region for which a moderately significant inverse correlation is found between winter snow cover and subsequent summer monsoon rainfall.
