NCAmapper: A GIS Model for Accurate Quantification of the Spatiotemporal Changes in Noncontributing Areas and Depressional Storage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractThe North American prairie region is characterized by numerous land depressions, resulting
in spatiotemporally variable noncontributing areas (NCAs) that impact runoff translation
into streamflow. Current hydrological ...
Evaluating Operational Risk in Environmental Modeling: Assessment of Reliability and Sharpness for Ensemble Selection
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To adequately define risk in an operational setting, modeling and data uncertainty must be addressed. Though metrics to evaluate model performance are numerous in the literature, few integrate either modeling uncertainty ...
Performance Evaluation of the Canadian Precipitation Analysis (CaPA)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper presents an assessment of the operational system used by the Meteorological Service of Canada for producing near-real-time precipitation analyses over North America. The Canadian Precipitation Analysis (CaPA) ...
The Point of No Return: Adaptation Strategies in Disaster Donation Supply Chains
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the aftermath of disasters, material convergence (the influx of material donations) can cause extreme negative impacts and has been described as a second disaster. Donations that are nonpriority or low-priority goods, ...
Team Effectiveness and Individual Myers-Briggs Personality Dimensions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Competition in the business world has led to the need for increased productivity. One way that companies, as well as academic institutions, have tried to meet this need is by using teams. However, many of the expected gains ...
Material Convergence: Important and Understudied Disaster Phenomenon
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the research conducted on material convergence, which is one of the most important and, ironically, one of the most understudied disaster phenomena. This spontaneous flow of supplies, equipment, and ...
Evaluation of Hurricane Evacuation Order Plans: Hurricane Florence
