| dc.description.abstract | A modeling framework for understanding spatially-explicit relationships between soil moisture dynamics and streamflow generation in upland humid forested watersheds is described. The framework consists of a dynamic canopy interception module and a 2D finite element hillslope hydrology model (IHDM4) having hillslope planes objectively delineated using contour-based terrain analysis (TAPES-C). This approach is fine-scaled both in space and time allowing for the inclusion of topographic and soil heterogeneities necessary for mapping oscillations in the variable source areas of streamflow generation. The modeling frameworl<: is implemented for a small control watershed (WS2) at the Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory. Simulation results to be presented at the conference include the climate-scale response of variable source areas for hillslope cross-sections to hourly climate data spanning years in which total precipitation was: (a) >20% above average, (b) near average, (c) >20% below average. | en_US |
