Application of an Analytic Methodology to Estimate the Movements of Moored Vessels Based on Forecast Data
(MDPI, 2019-09)[Abstract]: A port’s operating capacity and the economic performance of its concessions are intimately related to the quality of its operational conditions. This paper presents an analytical methodology for estimating the ... -
Assessing Different Imaging Velocimetry Techniques to Measure Shallow Runoff Velocities During Rain Events Using an Urban Drainage Physical Model
(Copernicus GmbH, 2021)[Abstract] Although surface velocities are key in the calibration of physically based urban drainage models, the shallow water depths developed during non-extreme precipitation and the potential risks during flood events ... -
Assessing the Effects of Climate Change on Compound Flooding in Coastal River Areas
(AGU Journals, 2021)[Abstract] Flood assessment in coastal river areas is subject to complex dependencies and interactions between flood drivers. In addition, coastal areas are especially vulnerable to climate change, and thus its effects ... -
Assessment of the performance of drought indices for explaining crop yield variability at the national scale: Methodological framework and application to Mozambique
(Elsevier, 2020)[Abstract:] Droughts are one of the most damaging and complex natural disasters in the world, and they frequently affect agricultural production. Drought monitoring is essential for decision-makers seeking to minimize the ... -
Benchmarking of Drought and Climate Indices for Agricultural Drought Monitoring in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] Site-specific studies are required to identify suitable drought indices (DIs) for assessing and predicting drought-related impacts. This study presents a benchmark of eight DIs and 19 large-scale climate indices ... -
CO2-Brine Substitution Effects on Ultrasonic Wave Propagation Through Sandstone With Oblique Fractures
(American Geophysical Union AGU, 2020)[Abstract:] Seismic monitoring of injected CO2 plumes in fractured storage reservoirs relies on accurate knowledge of the physical mechanisms governing elastic wave propagation, as described by appropriate, validated rock ... -
Comparison of machine learning techniques for reservoir outflow forecasting
(European Geosciences Union, 2022)[Abstract:] Reservoirs play a key role in many human societies due to their capability to manage water resources. In addition to their role in water supply and hydropower production, their ability to retain water and control ... -
Comparison of three different numerical implementations to model rainfall-runoff transformation on roofs
(Wiley, 2022)[Abstract:] Roofs represent a high percentage of the impervious surfaces in urban areas, and hence their implementation in urban drainage models is essential for accurate results to be achieved. Current modelling approaches ... -
Contaminación en las escorrentías de autopistas y vías con alta intensidad de tráfico
(Universidade da Coruña, Servizo de Publicacións, 2021)[Resumen:] Hoy en día ya es conocido que la contaminación de las aguas de escorrentía superficial urbana puede aportar, en cierto tipo de cuencas, cargas de contaminación significativas a los medios acuáticos receptores. ... -
Conversion of Vertical Slot Fishways to Deep Slot Fishways to Maintain Operation during Low Flows: Implications for Hydrodynamics
(MDPI, 2018)[Abstract:] Deep slot fishways (DSF) are similar to vertical slot fishways (VSF) except that a sill has been placed at the base of the slot, and thus require a lower discharge to operate. The conversion of a VSF to a DSF, ... -
Coordinated combination of methodologies as the key to success in the teaching of very heterogeneous groups
(Universidade da Coruña. Servizo de publicacións, 2020)[Abstract:] The International Master in Water Engineering is a Joint Degree offered by the University of A Coruña and the Hochschule Magdeburg-Stendal, which counts with the collaboration of other prestigious international ... -
Coupling artificial neural networks with the artificial bee colony algorithm for global calibration of hydrological models
(Springer, 2021)[Abstract:] Hydrological models are widely used tools in water resources management. Their successful application requires an efficient calibration of the model parameters. Nowadays, there are very powerful global search ... -
Deep Learning-Based Wave Overtopping Prediction
(MDPI, 2024-03-20)[Abstract]: This paper analyses the application of deep learning techniques for predicting wave overtopping events in port environments using sea state and weather forecasts as inputs. The study was conducted in the outer ... -
Determinación de la inundación en tramos de ríos afectados por marea basada en la simulación continúa de nivel
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2017)[Resumen:] Las desembocaduras, estuarios y tramos de ríos costeros son elementos hidrodinámicamente complejos debido a la interacción de varias dinámicas generadoras de inundación como la marea astronómica, la marea ... -
Development and Calibration of a New Dripper-Based Rainfall Simulator for Large-Scale Sediment Wash-off Studies
(MDPI, 2020)[Abstract] Rainfall simulators are useful tools for controlling the main variables that govern natural rainfall. In this study, a new drop-forming rainfall simulator, which consists of pressure-compensating dripper grids ... -
Development of a global SDG progress index aimed at “leaving no one behind”
(MDPI, 2020)[Abstract:] The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) constitute a set of shared global objectives for the development over the coming years, which both developed and developing countries are working together ... -
Dimensionamiento de un filtro de arena tipo Austin en una autopista en el norte de España
(Universidade da Coruña, Servizo de Publicacións, 2021)[Resumen:] La escorrentía urbana de vías de alta intensidad de tráfico puede generar impactos ambientales en las aguas receptoras. La escorrentía de autopistas y viales moviliza metales pesados y sólidos en suspensión ... -
