International Postgraduate Program of Water Resources Engineering in Asia
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Over the course of three decades (1961–90), the Water Resources Engineering (WRE) Program of the Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok, Thailand, has conferred master's degrees to about 650 students and doctoral degrees ...
Modeling Monsoon‐Affected Rainfall of Pakistan by Point Processes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Statistical analysis showed that monsoon reduced the variabilities of rainfall occurrences in Rechna Doab, an important agricultural region of Pakistan; but besides rainfall depths, it had little effect on other rainfall ...
Integrating Wavelet Empirical Orthogonal Functions and Statistical Disaggregation for Predicting Weekly Runoff for the Upper Kafue Basin in Zambia, Africa
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wavelet empirical orthogonal function analysis, genetic algorithm driven neural networks, statistical disaggregation and hydrologic modeling were integrated into a hydrologic framework to predict weekly rainfall and runoff ...
Hydrologic Modeling of the Blue River Basin Using NEXRAD Precipitation Data with a Semidistributed and a Fully Distributed Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A semidistributed (DPHMRS) and a fully distributed (MISBA) physically based hydrologic models were applied to the Blue River Basin (BRB) of Oklahoma in a multiyear mode using next-generation radar (NEXRAD) precipitation ...
Water Allocation Challenges of South Saskatchewan River Basin under the Combined Impacts of Climate Change and El Niño Southern Oscillation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The outlook and future water resources management of the South Saskatchewan River Basin (SSRB) in Alberta, Canada, under the potential combined impact of climate change and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), has been ...
East African Rainfall Anomaly Patterns in Association with El Niño/Southern Oscillation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: By applying harmonic analysis to El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) composites of the 6-month Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and rainfall anomalies for the 1900–1996 period, and based on the 90% confidence limits ...
Statistical Ensemble Seasonal Streamflow Forecasting in the South Saskatchewan River Basin by a Modified Nearest Neighbors Resampling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An ensemble seasonal streamflow forecasting model is developed for two watersheds in the South Saskatchewan River Basin of southern Alberta, Canada. The ensembles are generated from a mean forecast by using a modified
Weekly Streamflow Forecasting Using a Statistical Disaggregation Model for the Upper Blue Nile Basin, Ethiopia
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Accurately forecasting the weekly seasonal streamflow of the Upper Blue Nile basin (UBNB) in Ethiopia is essential for managing large-scale water projects of Nile basinwide countries. A wavelet-based, artificial neural ...
Risk of Exceeding Extreme Design Storm Events under Possible Impact of Climate Change
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Given the risk of intensive storms (the probability of exceeding certain storm intensity one or more times within the project life) of central Alberta is expected to change in the future, a new risk chart is proposed which ...
