Curve Number Estimation Accuracy on Disturbed and Undisturbed Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Estimates of the USDA-NRCS runoff curve number (CN) are generally based on a soil map and observed land cover. Because the CN method is increasingly applied to disturbed and urbanized land, the objective of this work was ...
Performance of Constructed Wetland Systems for Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactor Effluent Polishing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pollution from animal wastes is a threat to water resources. Insufficient treatment and disposal of animal manure results in potential runoff and transport of waste into surface and groundwater and ultimately contaminating ...
Extreme Daily Rainfall Event Distribution Patterns in Kansas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Rainfall Frequency Atlas (TP40) was last updated for Kansas in 1961, using weather data from 1911 to 1958. Rainfall information contained in the atlas is the basis for important engineering and hydrologic design decisions ...
