Columbia River Streamflow Forecasting Based on ENSO and PDO Climate Signals
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple method has been devised to incorporate the El
Economic Value of Long-Lead Streamflow Forecasts for Columbia River Hydropower
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recent advances in long-lead climate forecasting have made it possible to produce useful streamflow forecasts for the Columbia River basin roughly six months earlier than current forecasts that rely on snowpack measurements. ...
Daily Time-Step Refinement of Optimized Flood Control Rule Curves for a Global Warming Scenario
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pacific Northwest temperatures have warmed by 0.8°C since 1920 and are predicted to increase in the 21st century. Streamflow timing shifts associated with climate change would degrade the water resources system performance ...
Use of Satellite Data for Streamflow and Reservoir Storage Forecasts in the Snake River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We describe an approach to seasonal streamflow forecasting for the Snake River Basin in the Pacific Northwest that uses the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) macroscale hydrology model in conjunction with adjustments ...
Optimized Flood Control in the Columbia River Basin for a Global Warming Scenario
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Anticipated future temperature changes in the mountainous U.S. Pacific Northwest will cause reduced spring snow pack, earlier melt, earlier spring peak flow and lower summer flow in transient rain-snow and snowmelt dominant ...
