[Data] The Role of Subsurface Critical Zone Structure on Hydrological Partitioning in a Headwater Mountainous Catchment

Codes and data for paper: The Role of Subsurface Critical Zone Structure on Hydrological Partitioning in a Headwater Mountainous Catchment
The paper abstract
Headwater catchments play a vital role in regional water supply, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of hydrological partitioning for sustainable management. Recent studies have highlighted the significance of fractured rock layers in hydrological partitioning. However, the influence of these fractures on hydrological partitioning, particularly in relation to regional stress fields and the distribution of fractures parallel or mirroring the surface, remains largely unknown. This study utilizes geophysics-informed hydrologic modeling to examine the impacts of subsurface structure on hydrological partitioning in a mountainous headwater catchment. Our findings underscore the substantial influence of fractured bedrock on streamflow discharge, rock storage, and deep infiltration. Notably, climate change simulations reveal that catchments with paralleling surface structures may exhibit lower resilience. These findings provide valuable insights for water resource management, emphasizing the need to consider subsurface characteristics, including bedrock fracture distributions, to effectively anticipate and adapt to changing hydrological patterns.
