RISCoupling a Markov Chain and Support Vector Machine for At-Site Downscaling of Daily Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractStatistical downscaling is useful for managing scale and resolution problems in outputs from global climate models (GCMs) for climate change impact studies. To improve downscaling of precipitation occurrence, this ...
Coupled Hydraulic and Kalman Filter Model for Real-Time Correction of Flood Forecast in the Three Gorges Interzone of Yangtze River, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Three Gorges Project along the Yangtze River in China, as one of the biggest hydropower-complex projects in the world, plays a significant role in the economic development of the area even of the whole nation. An ...
Extreme precipitation changes in Europe from the last millennium to the end of the 21st century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, we aim to better understand the current and future projections of precipitation extremes in Europe in the context of climatic variability over a long-term period from the last millennium to the end of the ...
Derivation of Hydropower Rules for Multireservoir Systems and Its Application for Optimal Reservoir Storage Allocation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hydropower operating rules can guide reservoir release and storage for maximizing hydropower generation. The optimal hydropower operating rules are usually derived by numerical hydropower simulation methods. This study ...
Quantifying the Impact of Compounding Influencing Factors to the Water Level Decline of China’s Largest Freshwater Lake
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As a large open lake that connects to the lower Yangtze River, the Poyang Lake, China, has persisted dramatic water level decline since 2003. For better management of lake water resources and ecosystem, this study ...
Comparison of First-Order and Second-Order Derived Moment Approaches in Estimating Annual Runoff Distribution
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The first-order second-moment approximation (FOSM) has been proposed to estimate the annual runoff (Q) distribution from the statistical information of annual precipitation (P), annual potential evapotranspiration (Ep), ...
Conditional Value-at-Risk for Nonstationary Streamflow and Its Application for Derivation of the Adaptive Reservoir Flood Limited Water Level
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The existing risk-based approaches for quantifying expected flood damage loss may not be suitable in the changing environment when streamflow becomes nonstationary. Conditional value-at-risk (CVaRα), a modified form of ...
Understanding the Changing Characteristics of Droughts in Sudan and the Corresponding Components of the Hydrologic Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: roughts are becoming the most expensive natural disasters in former Sudan and have exerted serious impacts on local economic development and ecological environment. The purpose of this paper is to improve understanding of ...
