Abstract: For a wastewater collection system, the maximum volume that can be attained with an inline storage pipe is shown to occur when the pipe diameter is chosen to be 2/3 of the thickness of soil profile available for burial of ...

Abstract: Historical and reconstructed snow cover data from stations in Canada, the United States, the former Soviet Union, and the People?s Republic of China were used to reconstruct monthly snow cover extent (SCE) fluctuations ...

Abstract: The results of an instrumented pile load test program, including uplift and compression tests, are presented. The purpose of the pile load test is to determine ultimate bearing and skin friction design parameters. Vibrating ...

Abstract: A snowpack model sensitivity study, observed changes of snow cover in the NOAA satellite dataset, and snow cover simulations from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 3 (CMIP3) multimodel dataset are used to ...

Abstract: This paper describes results from a study to evaluate components of an operational air quality modeling system for complex terrain. In particular, the Cinder Cone Butte (CCB) ?modeler's dataset? is used to evaluate the ...

Abstract: Seasonal snow cover information over southern Canada was reconstructed from daily snowfall and maximum temperature data back to 1915 using a simple mass balance approach with snowmelt estimated via a calibrated temperature ...

Abstract: A 300‐ft‐long anchored bulkhead at Kake, Alaska, failed following placement of fill behind the bulkhead wall. The entire wall rotated outward at the toe and moved downslope 40 to 60 ft. No on‐site over‐water borings had ...

Abstract: Measurements of fetch-limited wave spectra from various sources indicate an approximate invariance of the normalized spectral shape with fetch. It has been suggested from investigations of the spectral energy balance that ...
