Changes of Bioclimatic Conditions in the Klodzko Region (SW Poland)

Paolo Perona

Despite continuous technological development, lack of data or discontinuity in meteorological measurements is still an issue affecting many stations. This study was devoted to determining the bioclimatic conditions in the Klodzko region (SW Poland), where ...

Tree root distribution modelling in different environmental conditions

David Andrew Barry, Paolo Perona, Massimiliano Schwarz

The ability to predict the spatial distribution of tree root system variables (e.g., the Root system Area (RA), the maximum root diameter, the number of roots in diameter classes, the density of fine roots, etc.) under different environmental conditions is ...

Frontiers of (Pareto) Optimal and Sustainable Water Management for Hydropower and Ecology

David Andrew Barry, Paolo Perona, Pierre Razurel, Amin Niayifar

River regulation alters the natural flow regime of streams with consequent impacts on terrestrial and aquatic habitats of the riparian zone. The severity of such impacts can be modulated by changing the redistribution rules at water intakes and reservoirs. ...

Nonlinear reconstruction of bioclimatic outdoor-environment dynamics for the Lower Silesia region (SW Poland)

Paolo Perona

Measured meteorological time series are frequently used to obtain information 8 about climate dynamics. We use time series analysis and nonlinear system identification 9 methods in order to assess outdoor-environment bioclimatic conditions starting from th ...

Catchment drainage network scaling laws found experimentally in overland flow morphologies

David Andrew Barry, Paolo Perona, Andrea Rinaldo, Mohsen Cheraghi

The scaling relation between the drainage area and stream length (Hack’s law), along with exceedance probabilities of drainage area, discharge and upstream flow network length are well known for channelized fluvial regions. We report here on a laboratory e ...

Modeling Macroroughness Contribution to Fish Habitat Suitability Curves

Paolo Perona, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Amin Niayifar

Improved water management strategies necessitate a solid understanding of environmental impacts associated with various flow release policies. Habitat suitability models use hydrodynamic simulations to generate weighted usable area curves, which are useful ...

Dynamical Behavior and Stability Analysis of Hydromechanical Gates

Paolo Perona, Fabian Alexander Bernhard

This study revisits the stability of hydromechanical gates for upstream water surface regulation, also known as AMIL gates. AMIL gates are used in irrigation canals, where they are often installed in series. From the regulation perspective, instabilities a ...

Dynamic water allocation policies improve the global efficiency of storage systems

Paolo Perona, Amin Niayifar

Water impoundment by dams strongly affects the river natural flow regime, its attributes and the related ecosystem biodiversity. Fostering the sustainability of water uses e.g., hydropower systems thus implies searching for innovative operational policies ...

Optimizing drip irrigation for eggplant crops in semi-arid zones using evolving thresholds

Paolo Perona

Field experiments were combined with a numerical model to optimize drip irrigation management based on soil matric potential (SMP) measurements. An experimental crop of eggplant was grown in Burkina Faso from December 2014 to March 2015 and plant response ...

Stability analysis of ecomorphodynamic equations

Benoît Crouzy, Paolo Perona

In order to shed light on the influence of riverbed vegetation on river morphodynamics, we perform a linear stability analysis on a minimal model of vegetation dynamics coupled with classical one- and two-dimensional Saint-Venant-Exner equations of morphod ...

Ecomorphodynamic approaches to river anabranching patterns

Benoît Crouzy, Paolo Perona

We investigate the influence of vegetation on river morphological instabilities using an analytical framework. We first discuss the important role of the hydrological (flooding frequency) and biological (vegetation development rate) timescales. As long as ...

Non-proportional Repartition Rules Optimize Environmental Flows and Energy Production

Benoît Crouzy, Paolo Perona, Pierre Razurel, Lorenzo Gorla

In order to meet the growing demand for energy, the development of hydropower leads to an increase of the river exploitation by human activities. Thereby, water management has become a major issue in the energy transition. A better definition of the flow r ...

The signature of randomness in riparian plant root distributions

Paolo Perona, Massimiliano Schwarz, Lorenzo Gorla, Stefania Tron

Known as "the hidden half", plant roots are fundamental contributors to the riparian ecosystem functioning. Roots show an extraordinary architectural complexity that recalls their remarkable ability to adapt to environmental heterogeneity, resources availa ...

Quantifying snowfall and avalanche release synchronization: a case study

Benoît Crouzy, Paolo Perona, Romain Forclaz, Betty Sovilla

We quantify the synchronization between snowfall and natural avalanches in relation to terrain properties at the detachment zone. We analyze field statistics of 549 avalanche events in terms of slope, aspect, timing, coordinate, and release area, identifie ...

Experimental characterization of vegetation uprooting by flow

Benoît Crouzy, Paolo Perona, Katharina Maria Edmaier

We investigate vegetation uprooting by flow for Avena sativa seedlings with stem-to-sediment size ratio close to unity and vanishing obstacle-induced scouring. By inducing parallel riverbed erosion within an experimental flume, we measure the time-to-uproo ...

Transient response of Salix cuttings to changing water level regimes

Alexandre Buttler, Pascal Turberg, Paolo Perona, Lorenzo Gorla, Constant Signarbieux

Sustainable water management requires an understanding of the effects of flow regulation on riparian ecomorphological processes. We investigated the transient response of Salix viminalis by examining the effect of water-level regimes on its above-ground an ...

Effects of hydropeaking waves offsets on growth performances of juvenile Salix species

Alexandre Buttler, Pascal Turberg, Paolo Perona, Lorenzo Gorla, Constant Signarbieux

Hydropower production and other human activities change the natural flow regime of rivers (e.g., hydropeaking effects), in turn, impacting the riparian environment. Here we present an experiment conceived to investigate the response of forced offsets in wa ...

Ecomorphodynamic conditions for the emergence of river anabranching patterns

Benoît Crouzy, Paolo Perona, Paolo d'Odorico

The appearance of the regular vegetated ridge patterns observed in some ephemeral rivers of semi-arid regions (Nanson, Tooth, & Knigthon 2002) has previously been explained by hydraulic arguments (optimization of the bed load transport capacity, see Huang ...

Above and below-ground Salix dynamics in response to river processes

Paolo Perona

Riparian vegetation influences hydraulic and morphodynamic river processes and may contribute to sediment stabilization. In turn, vegetation recruitment and growth on non-cohesive fluvial deposits strongly depends on river hydrology and the ability of root ...
