Adaptation of Precipitation Index for the Estimation of Antecedent Moisture Condition in Large Mountainous Basins
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Soil Conservation Service–curve number (SCS-CN) method is widely used in hydrologic practice, but its application often goes beyond the purpose of its original use. Common practice makes the method dependent on the ...
Indirect Estimation of Design Flood in Urbanized River Basins Using a Distributed Hydrological Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method for indirect estimation of design flood in poorly gauged urbanized river basins by using distributed hydrological modelling is presented. It is based on the critical flood design criterion that maximizes peak flow ...
Regionalization of Flow-Duration Curves through Catchment Classification with Streamflow Signatures and Physiographic–Climate Indices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study addresses the estimation of flow-duration curves (FDC) in ungauged sites through the catchment classification. Forty-six catchments in the Upper Po river basin (Italy) were analyzed and classified through two ...
Evaluating the Potential of Quarry Lakes for Supplemental Irrigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Population growth coupled with industrialization, increasing effects of climate change, and increasingly stringent water management regulations regarding the conservation of aquatic life are resulting in previously unknown ...
Modified Hargreaves-Samani Equation for the Assessment of Reference Evapotranspiration in Alpine River Basins
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Deriving accurate estimates of reference evapotranspiration is required for water resource management, irrigation water requirement computations, and successful hydrological modeling. The Food and Agricultural Organization ...
Review of Time-of-Concentration Equations and a New Proposal in Italy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The time of concentration is a fundamental parameter used for hydrological analysis in professional and scientific communities. The availability of equations for its estimation leads to significant variability and uncertainty. ...
Modeling of Water Distribution under Center Pivot Irrigation Technique
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Aiming to quantify the impacts of the center pivot irrigation technique on soil moisture dynamics and to improve irrigation crop water needs, a mathematical model was developed to estimate the water distribution pattern ...
