Development and Analysis of GIS Tools for the Automatic Implementation of 1D Hydraulic Models Coupled with Distributed Hydrological Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Implementation of a Hydraulic Routing Model for Dendritic Networks with Offline Coupling to a Distributed Hydrological Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The authors present a new set of tools for solving the one-dimensional Saint-Venant equations (1D-SVEs) of flow transport throughout dendritic river networks. The numerical solver is integrated with a set of geoprocessing ...
Exploring the Effect of Reservoir Storage on Peak Discharge Frequency
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, a simple hydrologic example is employed to illustrate the important features of reservoir regulated flood frequency. Despite its practical significance, the estimation of reservoir regulated flood frequency ...
Insights into Expected Changes in Regulated Flood Frequencies due to the Spatial Configuration of Flood Retention Ponds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study examines the effects that the spatial configuration of flood retention ponds have on the reduction of flood peaks across different spatial scales in the catchment. A continuous simulation approach is used to ...
Effect of Spatially Distributed Small Dams on Flood Frequency: Insights from the Soap Creek Watershed
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Dams are ubiquitous in the United States, with more than 87,000 influencing streamflow across the nation. The significant majority of these dams are small and are often ignored in real-time flood forecasting operations and ...
