RISDiscussion of “Updated Precipitation Frequency Estimates for Kansas City: Comparison with TP-40 and HYDRO-35” by C. Bryan Young and Bruce M. McEnroe
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
At-Site Based Evaluation of Rainfall Estimates for Indiana
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An at-site based rainfall frequency analysis was performed using hourly precipitation data for 53 selected stations in Indiana. The combined use of generalized extreme value and extreme value type I distributions was found ...
Copula-Based Flood Frequency Analysis at Ungauged Basin Confluences: Nashville, Tennessee
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many cities are located at or near the confluence of streams where availability of water resources may be enhanced to sustain user needs while also posing an increased flooding risk from multiple tributaries. An accurate ...
Hurricane Harvey Highlights: Need to Assess the Adequacy of Probable Maximum Precipitation Estimation Methods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Probable maximum precipitation (PMP) is the primary criterion used to design flood protection measures for critical infrastructures such as dams and nuclear power plants. Based on our analysis using the Stage IV (ST4) ...
Identifying High Power–Density Stream Reaches through Refined Geospatial Resolution in Hydropower Resource Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aided by the rapid development of multiple geospatial data sets for topography, hydrology, and existing energy-water infrastructures, reconnaissance-level hydropower resource assessment can now be conducted using geospatial ...
Uncertainty Analysis in Geospatial Merit Matrix–Based Hydropower Resource Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Identifying High Power–Density Stream Reaches through Refined Geospatial Resolution in Hydropower Resource Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aided by the rapid development of multiple geospatial data sets for topography, hydrology, and existing energy-water infrastructures, reconnaissance-level hydropower resource assessment can now be conducted using geospatial ...
Stream-Reach Identification for New Run-of-River Hydropower Development through a Merit Matrix–Based Geospatial Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Even after a century of development, the total hydropower potential from undeveloped rivers is still considered to be abundant in the United States. However, unlike evaluating hydropower potential at existing hydropower ...
