Canal Controllability Identification Based on Automation Theory to Improve Water Delivery Efficiency in Irrigation Canal Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Canal controllability is an open and significant topic that addresses the unreliability/uncertainty in water delivery, efficiency, and modernization in the irrigation system. The study developed an analysis tool for canal ...
Assessment of the Water Market in the Xiying Irrigation District, Shiyang River Basin, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Optimal Hedging Rules for Two-Objective Reservoir Operation: Balancing Water Supply and Environmental Flow
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Optimal Operation Rules for Parallel Reservoir Systems with Distributed Water Demands
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper addresses the doubts regarding the spatial characteristics of the commonly used rules for parallel reservoir system operation. The rules based on aggregation-decomposition determine the system total release first ...
Constrained Model Predictive Control Algorithm for Cascaded Irrigation Canals
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Agricultural irrigation accounts for the largest proportion of freshwater use worldwide, and canal automation potentially improves conveyance efficiency in irrigation canal systems. In this paper, model predictive control ...
Comparing the Economic and Environmental Effects of Different Water Management Schemes Using a Coupled Agent–Hydrologic Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Confronted with diverse water management schemes, policymakers in arid basins face difficulty in choosing a particular scheme due to a lack of appropriate tools to estimate possible physical and economic outcomes in a ...
Effects of Hydrologic Conditions and Reservoir Operation on Transboundary Cooperation in the Lancang–Mekong River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Multiple stakeholders in transboundary river basins would benefit from cooperation, but how and why stakeholders can achieve this cooperation remains difficult to determine. This paper proposes an approach for analyzing ...
Seasonal Water Allocation: Dealing with Hydrologic Variability in the Context of a Water Rights System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In China, the allocation of water rights in river basins is customarily determined by annual mean volumes of water resources. However, seasonal variability of water availability should be considered for an effective and ...
Adaptive Reservoir Operation Model Incorporating Nonstationary Inflow Prediction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Long-term changes in reservoir inflow due to climate change and human interferences have caused doubts on the assumption of hydrologic stationarity in reservoir design and operation. Incorporating uncertain predictions ...
Comparing the Economic and Environmental Effects of Different Water Management Schemes Using a Coupled Agent–Hydrologic Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Confronted with diverse water management schemes, policymakers in arid basins face difficulty in choosing a particular scheme due to a lack of appropriate tools to estimate possible physical and economic outcomes in a ...
