Not all watersheds respond equally to climate variability—and new research reveals that the difference lies underground.💧 🔗 Learn more in Water Resources Research: buff.ly/vvnKfkv #Snow #Hydrology #Climate #Groundwater #STEM @ali-ameli.bsky.social

Subsurface structure plays a key role in how watersheds respond to climate variability, influencing water storage, flood risk, and water quality beyond what surface features alone can explain. doi.org/hbmjc3

Time-variance in catchment hydrologic function: why do some catchments show it and others don't? Our paper shows that subsurface structure mediates climate-induced year-to-year variability of catchment hydrologic function agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/... #agupubs #ClimateChange

AI river forecasts may be accurate – but based on flawed logic #AGUPubs #MachineLearning www.muser.press/2026/01/09/c...

Deep Learning predicts streamflow beautifully. But does it "think" like a hydrologist? Our WRR paper shows the answer is no, with implications for hydrologic forecasts. Good news: we can diagnose this. Our new XAI framework opens the black box using hydrologic principles. #AGUPubs #MachineLearning

Do all catchments exhibit nonlinear and non-stationary behavior? A large-sample analysis of stormflow events reveals that the simple dynamics of Linear Time-Invariant systems are surprisingly common along wet/steep out-of-phase catchments. Read here: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...
