ATeX: A Benchmark for Image Classification of Water in Different Waterbodies Using Deep Learning Approaches
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Visual detection and classification of water and waterbodies provide important information needed for managing water resources systems and infrastructure, such as developing flood early warning systems and drought management. ...
Coalitional Game Theory for Stormwater Management and Green Infrastructure Practices
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As global warming and climate variability bring about more frequent and intense rainstorms and accelerate sea level rise, our social and built environments are at heightened risk of flood-induced damages and costs. All ...
Downscaling Precipitation for Local-Scale Hydrologic Modeling Applications: Comparison of Traditional and Combined Change Factor Methodologies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Future precipitation projections—and subsequent variation in simulated runoff response—can have a large impact on the planning and design of hydraulic structures and water systems and are, therefore, an important input in ...
Hydroeconomic Optimization and Reoperation of Folsom Reservoir for Flood-Managed Aquifer Recharge Implementation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The increasing occurrence of prolonged droughts and extreme wet events in California poses significant challenges to the management of the region’s water resources. To address these challenges, the utilization of Flood-Managed ...
Incorporating Potential Severity into Vulnerability Assessment of Water Supply Systems under Climate Change Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In response to climate change, vulnerability assessment of water resources systems is typically performed based on quantifying the severity of the failure. This paper introduces an approach to assess vulnerability that ...
Analysis of the Effects of Climate Change on Urban Storm Water Runoff Using Statistically Downscaled Precipitation Data and a Change Factor Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In urban areas, there is concern that storm water runoff and flooding may be intensified because of the effect of climate change on precipitation amounts, intensities, and frequencies. Studies are needed to help storm water ...
Vulnerability Assessment to Support Integrated Water Resources Management of Metropolitan Water Supply Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Surface Reservoir Reoperation for Managed Aquifer Recharge: Folsom Reservoir System
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As is much of the world, California increasingly is challenged by water scarcity. A recent multiyear drought depleted surface reservoir and groundwater storage in many places of the state. The Sustainable Groundwater ...
Incorporating Potential Severity into Vulnerability Assessment of Water Supply Systems under Climate Change Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In response to climate change, vulnerability assessment of water resources systems is typically performed based on quantifying the severity of the failure. This paper introduces an approach to assess vulnerability that ...
Combined Impact of Inland and Coastal Floods: Mapping Knowledge Base for Development of Planning Strategies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concurrent incidence of heavy rainfall events and coastal storm surges can cause damages of exponential proportion to the coastal habitants and infrastructures. Super Storm Sandy and hurricane Irene were wake up calls that ...
