Assessing the Uncertainty of the Xinanjiang Rainfall-Runoff Model: Effect of the Likelihood Function Choice on the GLUE Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, the generalized likelihood uncertainty estimation (GLUE) methodology, which is widely applied in the field of hydrology, is used for testing and predictive uncertainty estimation in the application of the ...
Evaluating Coupled Water, Vapor, and Heat Flows and Their Influence on Moisture Dynamics in Arid Regions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The flow and thermal driven processes are crucial for the soil water dynamics in the vadose zone in arid regions. The understanding of the soil moisture and heat distribution is important for assessing the fate and transport ...
Effect of Gravel-Sand Mulch on Soil Water and Temperature in the Semiarid Loess Region of Northwest China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the semiarid loess region of northwest China, the use of gravel and sand as a surface-mulching material has been an indigenous farming technique for crop production for over 300 years. A field and modeling study was ...
Effect of Water Table Depth on Growth and Yield of Soybean Yudou 16
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In 2005–2006, a multilysimeter study was conducted to determine the effect of various water table depths (WTDs) (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 m) on the growth of soybean variety Yudou 16 in the transitional ...
Evaluating Ensemble Kalman, Particle, and Ensemble Particle Filters through Soil Temperature Prediction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Data assimilation is a useful tool in hydrologic and agricultural application studies because of its ability to produce predicted results with high accuracy. However, different data-assimilation methods have different ...
