Simulation of Long-Term Trends in Chesapeake Bay Eutrophication
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A predictive mathematical model was employed to examine trends in Chesapeake Bay eutrophication from 1959 to 1988. The model provided details of processes and substances for which no record existed. The simulation indicated ...
Response of Chesapeake Bay to Nutrient Load Reductions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A eutrophication model package was employed to examine the response of mainstem Chesapeake Bay to nitrogen and phosphorus load reductions. In addition to sensitivity analyses, the bay was examined under limit-of-technology ...
Estimating Estuarine Reaeration Rates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Estuarine reaeration rates induced by wind and bottom stresses are compared through calculation of air-water-mass-transfer coefficients. For typical tidal velocities and depths, the transfer coefficient (and hence reaeration) ...
Three‐Dimensional Eutrophication Model of Chesapeake Bay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: CE‐QUAL‐ICM is a three‐dimensional, time‐variable, eutrophication model. CE‐QUAL‐ICM incorporates 22 state variables that include physical properties; multiple forms of algae, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and silica; and ...
Tributary Refinements to Chesapeake Bay Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of refinements was added to a previously completed three-dimensional eutrophication model of Chesapeake Bay. Refinements included increased grid resolution in the western tributaries and in shallow littoral areas, ...
Incremental Improvements in Chesapeake Bay Environmental Model Package
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The performance of the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Model Package is examined in four steps of model development. The steps include initial application, grid refinements, addition of living resources, and grid refinements ...
Impact of Flood-Diversion Tunnel on Newark Bay and Adjacent Waters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A diversion tunnel has been proposed to alleviate flooding in the upper portion of the Passaic River basin. The tunnel will divert flow from the headwaters of the Passaic to the upper end of Newark Bay. The present study ...
