Quantifying these changes is challenging due to unavailability of data and the existence of multiple periodicities in the data that may be associate d with large-scale climate oscillations. This thesis focuses on the develo pment and applications of innovative wavelet transform (WT)-based approach es for applications in analyzing the influence of climate oscillations on streamflow and precipitation data. The precipitation and streamflow data u sed are obtained from stations in Canada\; the climate oscillations includ ed in the analysis are El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)\, the North Atl antic Oscillation (NAO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO).\n\nBy c ombining continuous WT\, discrete WT and non-parametric statistical approa ches\, this thesis demonstrates the utility and advantages of WT-based met hods in two main areas: 1) the multiscale influences of large-scale climat e oscillations (individually and simultaneously) on streamflow and precipi tation data\; and 2) improving the performance of several record extension methods by incorporating WT as a pre-processing technique. Collectively\, the results obtained enhance the understanding of variability in streamfl ow and precipitation over many areas in Canada. This is useful for improvi ng forecasting in operational hydrology and for sustainable management of water resources as a whole.\n\nEveryone in the 91ºÚÁÏÍø community is welcome to attend a PhD Oral Defence. Please join us in celebrating the accomplis hments of our PhD candidates.\n DTSTART:20200406T171500Z DTEND:20200406T171500Z LOCATION:MS2-022\, Macdonald-Stewart Building\, CA\, QC\, St Anne de Bellev ue\, H9X 3V9\, 21111 Lakeshore Road SUMMARY:PhD Oral Defence: Wavelet transform-based methods to analyze variab ility of hydrological data URL:/macdonald/channels/event/phd-oral-defence-wavelet -transform-based-methods-analyze-variability-hydrological-data-321069 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
