| Résumé : | Hydrological extremes are drawing more and more attention due to growing number of severe floods and low-flow events observed each year in different regions of the world. Crossing the threshold values of meteorological characteristics results in extreme intensity processes not only on slopes and river channels, but also in subsurface (soil moisture and groundwater) environment. Extreme precipitation, droughts and floods are of special interest in head-water areas (small drainage basins) due to extreme intensity of the processes in spite of their local scale. Such extreme episodes create different patterns of hydrological and hydro-chemical response depending on pre-event state of the basin environment. Improving monitoring, modelling and predicting hydrological extremes are important tasks for the scientific community, with repercussions to engineering practice. |
