Abstract A study of the trends and variability of hydrological variables was conducted for natural streamflow gauging stations within the Liard River basin in northern Canada. Trends were investigated using the Mann-Kendall test, with an approach that corrects for serial correlation. The field significance of the results was evaluated using a bootstrap resampling approach. The relationships between trends in hydrological variables and both meteorological variables and a large-scale oceanic and atmospheric process were investigated using correlation analysis. The results reveal more trends in some hydrological variables than are expected to occur by chance. The observed trends are related to both trends in meteorological...

Summary This study investigates trends in the timing and magnitude of seasonal maximum flood events across Canada. A new methodology for analyzing trends in the timing of flood events is developed that takes into account the directional character and multi-modality of flood occurrences. The methodology transforms the directional series of flood occurrences into new series by defining a new location of the origin. A test of flood seasonality (multi-modality) is then applied to identify dominant flood seasons. Floods from the dominant seasons are analyzed separately by a seasonal trend analysis. The Mann–Kendall test in conjunction with the method of pre-whitening is used in the trend analysis. Over 160 streamflow...

ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
