Closure to “<i>Hydraulic Resistance of Pavement Surfaces</i>” by Joseph R. Reed and David F. Kibler (March, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Development of an Improved Approach for Selecting Storm-Water Best Management Practices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper discusses the development of a software-aided approach to best management practice (BMP) selection. Supported with input from a geographic information system (GIS), this software provides an algorithmic, ...
Irrigation in Humid Areas: Net Benefits
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of irrigation systems in the humid east has traditionally been minimal due to frequent rainfall. The argument most often encountered against the use of irrigation in humid regions is that the return on investment ...
Flood Peak Estimates from Limited At‐Site Historic Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Estimates of peak flood discharge on ungauged watersheds are often determined from regional relationships. This approach, however, ignores sitespecific information that might be available from sources such as historic high ...
Hydrological and Fiscal Impacts of Residential Development: Virginia Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study examined hydrological and fiscal effects of residential growth patterns in Virginia. Eleven scenarios that consider a fixed increase in population and vary housing arrangement within a tract (tract form), tract ...
Application of the Analytical Hierarchical Process for Improved Selection of Storm-Water BMPs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Engineers and planners responsible for the selection and design of storm-water best management practices (BMPs) face a formidable array of practices and techniques for managing the quality of urban runoff. Primary factors ...
Integrated Computing Environments for Watershed Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes a new computing paradigm known as a problem solving environment (PSE), explores the role this new paradigm might play in watershed management and land use change analysis, and compares PSEs to similar ...
