Discussion of “<i>Finite Element‐Based Flutter Analysis of Cable‐Suspended Bridges</i>” by Ahmad Namini, Pedro Albrecht, and Harold Bosch (June, 1992, Vol. 118, No. 6)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Modeling Low Flows on the Cosumnes River
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As a part of a study examining alternatives for flow augmentation for fall run Chinook salmon migration on the Cosumnes River, California, two models were constructed to simulate channel flow combined with seepage losses. ...
Stochastic Upscaling for Snow Accumulation and Melt Processes with PDF Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although the importance of subgrid variability in the snow model has been recognized, only a few modeling studies on the parameterization of subgrid effects have been performed. This study proposes a new upscaling approach ...
Atmospheric Model-Based Streamflow Forecasting at Small, Mountainous Watersheds by a Distributed Hydrologic Model: Application to a Watershed in Japan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, an experimental 12-h lead-time flood forecasting methodology that combines the fifth generation mesoscale model (MM5) of the U.S. National Center of Atmospheric Research with the physically based, spatially ...
Application of a Coupled Regional-Scale Hydrological-Atmospheric Model to Japan for Climate Change Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the improved performance of a regional climate model for the Japan region when a fully coupled boundary layer model and an areally averaged land–surface flow model are employed. It also describes results ...
Coupling HEC-HMS with Atmospheric Models for Prediction of Watershed Runoff
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The operation of reservoirs in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California for flood control relies on forecasts of reservoir inflows. In the past, accurate forecasts of the reservoir inflows resulting from watershed runoff ...
Watershed Environmental Hydrology (WEHY) Model: Model Application
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Watershed Environmental Hydrology (WEHY) model was applied to the Shiobara-Dam watershed for model validation for four historical events. Based on the analysis of the established geographic information system (GIS) ...
Physically Based Estimation of Maximum Precipitation over American River Watershed, California
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A methodology for maximum precipitation (MP) estimation that uses a physically based numerical atmospheric model is proposed in this paper. As a case study, the model-based 72-h MP was estimated for the American River ...
Reconstruction of Historical Atmospheric Data by a Hydroclimate Model for the Mekong River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is necessary to have historical atmospheric data at fine time and spatial grid resolutions as input to watershed-scale models of the Mekong River Basin to perform water balance studies over the basin. However, such ...
