Abstract: The possible impacts of climate change induced by global warming on a highly permeable, unconfined aquifer located in the humid northeastern U.S. is analyzed for the years 2030 and 2100. The groundwater model MODFLOW is ...

Abstract: Methods to estimate and generate free‐surface evaporation

Abstract: Optimization modeling can reveal promising multiperiod schedules for adapting to deeply uncertain changes in flooding. We contribute a parsimonious optimization model (mixed integer program) that adjusts the efficacy of ...

Abstract: Environmental and socioeconomic indicators are selected to study the impacts of global warming on the water resources of the United States. One of the indicators, regional reservoir storage vulnerability, is a particularly ...

Abstract: When addressing urban water problems, it is no longer adequate to consider issues of water supply, demand, disposal, and reuse independently. Innovative water management strategies and opportunities for water reuse can ...

Abstract: A generic integrated watershed management optimization model was developed to efficiently screen a broad range of technical, economic, and policy management options within a watershed system framework and select the optimal ...

Abstract: Selecting approaches to managing nonpoint source pollution is challenging due to the complex generation and transport processes that influence the quantity of pollutant that eventually reaches a receiving water. Pollutant ...

Abstract: Linear and dynamic programming formulations are introduced for optimizing the placement of distributed best management practices (BMPs) at the watershed scale. The results of linear programming optimization of infiltration-based ...

Abstract: Much progress has been made in the standardization of uncertainty analysis techniques for simulation modeling but less progress has been made in optimization modeling. Among the various techniques used for optimization ...
