Upscaling Surface Runoff Routing Processes in Large-Scale Hydrologic Models: Application to the Ohio River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Predicting Model Uncertainty at River Junctions due to Drainage Network Structure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The mixing of water, solutes, and sediments from two or more tributaries produces streamflow possessing unique biogeochemical, ecological, hydrological, and morphological signatures. To understand and predict these signatures, ...
Flood Frequency Hydrology with Limited Data for the Weser River Basin, Germany
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates challenges of and solutions for estimating regional flood discharges from a limited number of stream gauge records with varying lengths. Routine application of standard analytical flood frequency ...
Using GIS to Determine Extent of Gauged Streams in a Region
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A geographic information system (GIS) based approach to quantify the coverage provided by a stream gauge network is presented. This approach relies on digital elevation models, a digital representation of the observed ...
Trend Assessment in Rainfall-Runoff Behavior in Urbanizing Watersheds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A typical flood frequency analysis is based on gauged annual maximum discharges. One assumption behind the analysis is that the measured discharge signal is stationary. The validity of this assumption can be difficult to ...
Effects of Impervious Area Estimation Methods on Simulated Peak Discharges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, the variability of simulated flood discharges is evaluated using two methods for estimating impervious surfaces and common design methods in the Mission Creek watershed
Slope Interrupter Best Management Practice Experiments on a Tilting Soil Bed with Simulated Rainfall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper documents an experimental study conducted to evaluate the performance of two commonly used sediment treatment control products, albeit with contrasting treatment technologies: a fiber roll or wattle (i.e., ...
Estimating Flood Discharges in Reservoir-Regulated River Basins by Integrating Synthetic SWOT Satellite Observations and Hydrologic Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lakes and reservoirs are widely used for water supply and flood control, especially during large storm events. In hydrologic modeling applications, accounting for the regulated behavior of reservoirs distributed throughout ...
Subsurface Response Model for Storm Events within Susquehanna River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A three-equation model for subsurface response is presented. The model is based on storm events for various sized watersheds within the Susquehanna River Basin. The equations represent the peak flow, time to peak, and time ...
