CO <sub>2</sub> and Temperature Effects on Evapotranspiration and Irrigated Agriculture
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A sensitivity analysis of potential evapotranspiration (PET) rates under both CO
Precipitation and Water-Table Effects on Agricultural Production and Economics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The sensitivity of irrigated agriculture to water-table fluctuations and agroeconomic parameters was analyzed in the context of long-term climatic variability. Capillary rise was modeled as a function of soil moisture ...
Response of Streamflow to Weather Variability under Climate Change in the Colorado Rockies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We examine the response of streamflow to long-term rainfall variability under climate change by coupling downscaled global climate model precipitation to a distributed hydrologic model. We use daily output of the coupled ...
Spatial Disaggregation for Studies of Climatic Hydrologic Sensitivity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of deterministic atmospheric general circulation models (GCMs) to understand potential global climate change under doubled
Optimal Stochastic Multicrop Seasonal and Intraseasonal Irrigation Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Optimal seasonal multicrop irrigation water allocation and optimal stochastic intraseasonal (daily) irrigation scheduling are carried out using a two-stage decomposition approach based on a stochastic dynamic programming ...
Effects of El Niño Southern Oscillation and Pacific Interdecadal Oscillation on Water Supply in the Columbia River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Decadal climate variability in the form of the Pacific Interdecadal Oscillation (PDO) is analyzed with the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) to assess impacts on seasonal water supply in the Columbia River Basin and to ...
Variable Infiltration-Capacity Model Sensitivity, Parameter Uncertainty, and Data Augmentation for the Diyala River Basin in Iraq
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To construct a valid model, hydrologists face challenges in determining sensitivity to the forcing data and uncertainty in model parameters. These require basin data and forcing data from different sources, which may be ...
Nonstationary-Probabilistic Framework to Assess the Water Resources System Vulnerability: Long-Term Robust Planning and Timing
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Multiobjective water resources systems require long-term operational plans that consider vulnerability to failure under nonstationary conditions due to climate change. The paper presents a probabilistic decision-making ...
Hydrologic Response of Grasslands: Effects of Grazing, Interactive Infiltration, and Scale
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Data collected at two measurement scales from a semiarid grassland are presented and analyzed to explore the hydrologic effects of grazing, interactions between overland flow and infiltration, and scale issues. Rainfall-runoff ...
