The concept of scale can be used to quantify characteristic lengths of (a) a natural process (such as the correlation length of the spatial snow water equivalent (SWE) variability); (b) a measurement (such as the size of a snow density sample or the footprint of a satellite sensor), and (c) a model

During the past several decades, major advances have been made in statistical hydrology, modelling, and indirect methods for evaluating hydrological response. New approaches have been developed for flood prediction, movement of water and chemicals through heterogeneous porous media, sediment transpo
## Abstract Digital elevation models (DEMs) are useful and popular tools from which topographic parameters can be quickly and efficiently extracted for various hydrologic applications. DEMs coupled with automated methods for extracting topographic information provide a powerful means of parameteriz
