Experimental Evaluation of 2-D Entropy Model for Open-Channel Flow
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this technical note is to investigate the applicability of the Principle of Maximum Entropy in hydrodynamics, particularly in velocity distribution in open channels, by comparing the predictions of two 2-D ...
Hydrological Impact of a High-Density Reservoir Network in Semiarid Northeastern Brazil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Dense reservoir networks, with thousand of small dams, can be increasingly found throughout the world, especially in water-scarce environments, such as the Brazilian northeastern region. Although the effect of individual ...
Canopy-Radiation Balance Method to Assess Daily Actual Evapotranspiration: Applications in Brazil’s Caatinga Forest
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Evapotranspiration is a key hydrological process in Brazil’s 1,000,000-km2 tropical semiarid Caatinga biome, where monitoring is crucial, but data are scarce. We propose a method to estimate daily actual evapotranspiration ...
