Abstract: Through a simulation modeling approach, this paper seeks to modify the design of detention ponds to preserve the natural ecological flows while satisfying the requisite regulatory flow requirements. This paper will utilize ...

Abstract: The indicators of hydrologic alteration (IHA) is a statistical flow methodology for characterizing ecologically important streamflows. Typically, IHA has been used to identify the extent of human effects on a stream’s ...

Abstract: The objective of this research is to develop and demonstrate a methodology to specifically assess the interrelationships among estimated precipitation, observed streamflow, and hydrologic model performance. To satisfy this ...

Abstract: This work presents a new paradigm for the design of stormwater detention basins. Through simulation and optimization, this work seeks to find the design of a detention basin outlet control structure that reduces the ...
