Abstract: This paper presents a relative standard uncertainty (RSU) model for stationary acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) open-channel discharge measurement. The model is a combination of the Type A and Type B evaluation of ...

Abstract: The bias error in moving-boat acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) streamflow measurements can be separated into two classes: calibration and application. Accordingly, the total bias limit of measured discharges can ...

Abstract: A methodology has been developed to use data collected by ocean surface current radar (OSCR) systems to predict the fate and transport of pollutants released from ocean outfalls. The proposed OSCR-based transport model was ...

Abstract: Initial dilutions of four ocean outfalls (the Miami‐Central, Miami‐North, Hollywood, and Broward outfalls) on the east coast of South Florida were determined from dye and salinity studies. In the dye studies, continuous ...

Abstract: A methodology for ocean outfall mixing zone analysis is presented. It is based on a combination of four deterministic models for predicting hydrodynamic mixing behaviors of the discharged effluent, a continuous time domain ...

Abstract: Field and bench tests were conducted to determine the decay property of effluent total residual chlorine (TRC) in an outfall pipe. The pipe conveys secondary treated effluent from the Broward County North Regional Wastewater ...

Abstract: Initial dilution of submerged, single, round, buoyancy-dominated jets in a current is considered. Two simple semiempirical equations, one for centerline dilution and the other for minimum surface dilution, are presented. ...
