The Bay Area Hydrology Model – A Tool for Analyzing Hydromodification Effects of Development Projects and Sizing SolutionsThe California Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Francisco Bay Region, is requiring stormwater programs to address the increases in stormwater runoff rate, volume, and ...
In this study, sea level rise inundation areas were diagnosed on several levels over the next 50 years using topographic and geographical information, including hydrology analysis. A high rate of precipitation has been observed in the southwest Bay Area for the past five years where rainfall, as ...

Flooding disrupts communities—from expensive property damages, to dangerous water contamination and mold, to hindering day-to-day life such as trips to the store or to work. Priority communities have about 50% more area in flood zones compared to the rest of the region. Many of the priority...
Similar to non-point source eutrophication of inland freshwaters, the occurrence of chemicals in surface waters is a function of chemistry, hydrology, climate, and land use in the surrounding watershed (Blanchard and Lerch, 2000; Burant et al., 2018; Sardiña et al., 2019). For example, ...
Along the coastline, there are at least four different types of depositional environments: the Yellow River delta in the northwest, the alluvial plain in the southwest, the marine deposit plain in the south, and the hilly area in the east10–12. The coast areas west of Hutouya (Fig. 1)...
We present a coupled groundwater-surface water model for the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento Valley that consists of a combination of a spatially-distributed groundwater model (Modflow) based on the USGS Central Valley model(1) and the Flexible Mesh (FM) surface water model of the Bay Area(...

This study is the first to apply a hydrograph-separation technique to separate baseflow and stormflow yields of metals (fluxes per unit area), thus providing important insights into the effects of hydrology on these yields. Suspended-sediment concentration data were used as a less-costly surrogate...
Two factors exerting the greatest impact on groundwater N delivery to Narragansett Bay are the characteristic surficial geology of the area, and the presence of densely populated un-sewered development in the coastal zone. Local differences in soils, geology, and hydrology are critical in ...
