Abstract: Dimensional analysis is used to obtain asymptotic solutions that describe plume behavior in a two‐layer ambient fluid. A single dimensionless parameter is found that measures the ability of the density discontinuity to ...

Abstract: A two dimensional buoyant jet, discharged vertically into a stratified fluid with no crossflow, is considered. Simple equations are developed with dimensional analysis to predict the location and concentration of effluent ...

Abstract: A method for assessing the impacts on streamflow resulting from withdrawing water from the stream channel or from shallow wells adjacent to the stream for irrigation is presented. Assessment is based on a detailed study ...

Abstract: This study is the first to report the effect of water saturation on the retardation of nonionic organic compounds under dynamic conditions. Three nonaggregated sandy soil samples, that varied in their organic carbon content ...

Abstract: A procedure for calculating the spatial and temporal distribution of a direct runoff hydrograph from an ungauged watershed is presented. Nodal values of hydraulic roughness and slope are used to avoid kinematic shock. This ...

Abstract: The mass transfer of gasoline constituents [benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes (BTEX), and naphthalene] to air during laboratory‐simulated soil vapor extraction (referred to here as soil venting) was determined. Soil ...

Abstract: Surfactant-enhanced sorbent zones have potential utility for contaminant plume management in the subsurface. Changes in the hydraulic properties associated with the formation of such zones were studied by measuring hydraulic ...
