It presents for the first time a simplified and effective linear transfer function for karst aquifers. The author provides detailed wavelet spectrum results, which reveal certain non-linearities in drought periods. In addition, structures based on Hammerstein-Wiener blocks have yielded a nonlinear model that is substantially more efficient than its linear counterparts. Another pioneering finding is the use of wavelet coherence between glacier discharge and air temperature to estimate SEC (Seasonal Effective Core) boundaries. The yearly SEC is essential to obtaining a model based on Hammerstein-Wiener structures, which offers considerably higher efficiency. Moreover, two different types of glacier dynamics have been discovered (overdamped and overshoot), depending on the annual cycle and the SEC average temperature.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053HydrogeologyMathematical physicsStatistical physicsHydrogeologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G19005Mathematical Applications in the Physical Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13120Applications of Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33020Hydrogeology.Mathematical physics.Statistical physics.Hydrogeology.Mathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences.Applications of Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos Theory.620.001171Chinarro Davidauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1060008MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298380703321System Engineering Applied to Fuenmayor Karst Aquifer (San Julián de Banzo, Huesca) and Collins Glacier (King George Island, Antarctica)2510135UNINA
