Planning for Water Allocation and Water Quality Using a Spreadsheet-Based Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)An integrated planning activity was undertaken for the Amman-Zarqa Basin in Jordan to account for present and future uses of water resources including reclaimed water. Upgrades to existing wastewater treatment plants mean ... -
Closure to “Mixed-Integer Approach for Obtaining Unique Solutions in Source Inversion of Water Networks” by Carl D. Laird, Lorenz T. Biegler, and Bart G. van Bloemen Waanders
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007) -
Reliability-Based Strengthening and Expansion of Water Distribution Networks
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)An iterative method based on the trade-off between reliability and cost is proposed for the strengthening and expansion of water distribution networks (WDNs) to obtain a level-one redundant network, i.e., a network that ... -
Discussion of “Alternate Decision Making in Water Distribution Network with NSGA-II” by Md. Atiquzzaman, Shie-Yui Liong, and Xinying Yu
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007) -
PhillyRiverCast: A Real-Time Bacteria Forecasting Model and Web Application for the Schuylkill River
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)The Philadelphia Water Department developed a unique, Web-based water quality forecasting system for the Schuylkill River called RiverCast. Based on real-time turbidity, flow, and rainfall data, it provides up-to-the-hour ... -
Discussion of “Solution for Water Distribution Systems under Pressure-Deficient Conditions” by Wah Khim Ang and Paul W. Jowitt
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007) -
Water Use Model for Quantifying Environmental and Economic Sustainability Indicators
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)A systems approach is used to model the urban water cycle. A model for analyzing the flows of water, energy, and chemicals and associated greenhouse gas emissions through the urban water infrastructure system is developed. ... -
Stochastic Fuzzy Neural Network: Case Study of Optimal Reservoir Operation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)Reservoirs play an important role within the water resources management framework. Among the available techniques for reservoir optimal operation, the most well known one is stochastic dynamic programming (SDP). In recent ... -
Experimental Observation and Analysis of Inverse Transients for Pipeline Leak Detection
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)Fluid transients result in a substantial amount of data as pressure waves propagate throughout pipes. A new generation of leak detection and pipe roughness calibration techniques has arisen to exploit those data. Using the ... -

Accessing Assimilative Capacity through a Dual Discharge Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)The historical development of environmental stressors in the watershed of Onondaga Lake (N.Y.) and the adjoining Seneca River is outlined as a prelude to the presentation of a novel approach for accessing assimilative ... -
Stochastically Optimal Groundwater Management Considering Land Subsidence
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)This paper presents a stochastic groundwater management model explicitly considering land subsidence. Through the use of response matrix technique and one-dimensional consolidation equation, a deterministic management model ... -
Multiobjective Planning of Surface Water Resources by Multiobjective Genetic Algorithm with Constrained Differential Dynamic Programming
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)Owing to the conflict encountered between the two objectives of fixed cost in reservoir installation and operating cost in time-varying water deficit, multiobjective planning of surface water resources is a difficult job. ... -
Sharing Water Resources Data in the Binational Rio Grande/Bravo Basin
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)The development of relational databases from which simulation models can access data needed to describe the systems being modeled is fundamental to integrated river basin management, especially in shared, transboundary ... -
Integrated Water Resource Management and Water Sharing
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)Integrated water resource management (IWRM) and water sharing concepts are described. Various definitions of IWRM are presented. It can be described as a facilitated stakeholder process to promote coordinated activities ... -
Boundaries and Transboundary Water Conflicts
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)This paper examines political boundaries to determine if changing the boundary function or placement will lessen conflicts. A political geography approach provides the framework for analysis. Although water managers advocate ... -
Transboundary Water Sharing and the Need for Public Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)Water is one of the most vital of all resources for human survival and thriving. Water is also an inherently shared resource, one that does not respect human boundaries—boundaries between persons, between communities, and ... -
Impact of Climate Change on Transboundary Water Sharing
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)The issue of climate change has surfaced as a potential impediment to effective long-range policies and management of water resources. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently published a report ... -
North Carolina–Virginia Conflict: The Lake Gaston Water Transfer
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2007)The city of Virginia Beach, Va. completed an interbasin transfer from Lake Gaston on the Roanoke River for municipal water supply in 1998 after years of controversy. Federal regulatory and judicial decision processes ...
