Confined Aquifer Parameters from a Pump Test Near an Impermeable Boundary
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple method is presented for determining aquifer transmissibility,
Closure to “<i>Confined Aquifer Parameters from a Pump Test Near an Impermeable Boundary</i>” By Stephen J. Burges (July, 1993, Vol. 119, No. 7)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Closure to “<i>Approximate Error Bounds for Simulated Hydrographs</i>” by David C. Garen and Stephen J. Burges (November, 1981)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Proposed Model For Evaluating Urban Hydrologic Change
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Evaluation of the effects of land‐use change in a natural catchment and what can be done to mitigate these effects requires accurate quantitative representation of the mechanisms by which precipitation contributes to run ...
Use of Thermal Infrared Imagery to Complement Monitoring and Modeling of Spatial Stream Temperatures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Thermal infrared (TIR) surveys are effective methods to map surface spatial temperature patterns along a river. We used two data sets of TIR-derived longitudinal temperature profiles to analyze reach-scale spatial patterns ...
Relationships between <i>n</i>‐Day Flood Volumes for Infrequent Large Floods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Design floods of specified frequency are used to consider relevant hydrologic and economic factors in the evaluation of operation, or changes in operation, of flood‐damage mitigation facilities. The design flood hydrograph ...
Hydrologic Mitigation Using On-Site Residential Storm-Water Detention
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: On-site storm-water detention systems can be used to mitigate the hydrologic effects of residential development and to provide a supplemental water supply at the scale of single residences. A three-year rainfall record ...
Hydrological Effects of Land-Use Change in a Zero-Order Catchment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hydrologic modeling and relatively simple monitoring were used to estimate the hydrologic balance for two geographically close and, in the undisturbed state, hydrologically similar, zero-order basins: one undeveloped forest ...
Revised Coefficients for Priestley-Taylor and Makkink-Hansen Equations for Estimating Daily Reference Evapotranspiration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many applications require estimation of reference evapotranspiration (
Daily Time-Step Refinement of Optimized Flood Control Rule Curves for a Global Warming Scenario
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pacific Northwest temperatures have warmed by 0.8°C since 1920 and are predicted to increase in the 21st century. Streamflow timing shifts associated with climate change would degrade the water resources system performance ...
