Hydrological and Fiscal Impacts of Residential Development: Virginia Case Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)This study examined hydrological and fiscal effects of residential growth patterns in Virginia. Eleven scenarios that consider a fixed increase in population and vary housing arrangement within a tract (tract form), tract ... -
Fuzzy Logic Spatial Decision Support System for Urban Water Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)Urban water management is a demanding decision-making environment where optimal planning presupposes a synthesis of heterogeneous information of high spatial resolution to ensure site-specific implementation. To assist the ... -
Where Is California Taking Water Transfers?

Impact of Spring 2000 Drought Forecasts on Midwestern Water Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)In March 2000, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued forecasts of spring and summer droughts for five Midwestern states. Summer brought heavy rains across the Midwest, ending the drought and revealing ... -
Integrated Hydrologic-Agronomic-Economic Model for River Basin Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)The interdisciplinary nature of water resources problems requires the integration of technical, economic, environmental, social, and legal aspects into a coherent analytical framework. This paper presents the development ... -
Costs of Best Management Practices and Associated Land for Urban Stormwater Control
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)New methods are used to evaluate stormwater controls and best management practices (BMPs) within a land development context. Costs are developed using published literature and standard cost estimation guides. A method is ... -
Water Reservoir Control with Data Mining
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)This paper describes the development of a general operating policy for a water supply system using the methodology of data mining. To define an operating policy using this approach, both a single-reservoir and a multireservoir ... -
Conjunctive-Management Models for Sustained Yield of Stream-Aquifer Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)Conjunctive-management models that couple numerical simulation with linear optimization were developed to evaluate trade-offs between groundwater withdrawals and streamflow depletions for alluvial-valley stream-aquifer ... -

Water Level Measurement Locations for Coastal Aquifer Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2003)The coefficient of variation of the optimal cost (CVOC) method is applied to the Acqua dei Corsari coastal aquifer in Sicily’s north coast to find the best point for a new water-level measurement location. The purpose of ... -
Enhanced Artificial Neural Network Inflow Forecasting Algorithm for Run-of-River Hydropower Plants
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)An improved artificial neural network-based algorithm for short-term water inflow forecasting (STWIF) into run-of-river hydropower plants is presented. Deregulation of the electrical power industry and introduction of ... -
Groundwater Remediation Strategy Using Global Optimization Algorithms
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The remediation of groundwater contamination by pumping and injection is generally a long-term and costly strategy. Aquifer cleanup time is a highly nonlinear and nonconvex function of pumping rates. The cleanup objective ... -
Effects of Integrated Planning on Capacity-Yield-Performance Functions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)A recently developed multiple-reservoir version of the modified sequent peak algorithm is used to assess the benefits of integrated reservoir storage-yield-performance planning using data from Iran and England. The results ... -
Multireservoir Multiyield Model with Allowable Deficit in Annual Yield
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Yield models produce reasonable reservoir designs with release reliabilities near targets. This paper extends the basic yield model and presents a multiple-yield model for a multiple-reservoir system consisting of ... -
Closure to “Long-Term Hydrologic Impact of Urbanization: A Tale of Two Models” by Budhendra Bhaduri, Marie Minner, Susan Tatalovich, and Jon Harbor
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002) -
Uncertainty Analysis of Regional Flow Duration Curves
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Flow duration curves (FDCs) are useful tools for many water resource development and management purposes. Many water resource projects are located at ungauged sites, however, for which FDCs are required but unavailable due ... -
Energy and Costs of Leaky Pipes: Toward Comprehensive Picture
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Leaky distribution systems are costly in terms of lost water, potentially adverse water quality effects, and the energy consumed in supplying the leaks. To characterize the energy effectiveness of a leaky segment in a ... -
Stream Erosion Potential and Stormwater Management Strategies
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Hydrologic and sediment transport modeling were used to examine the effectiveness of typical stormwater management policies in reducing the potential for stream-channel erosion. Two bedload functions and three total-load ... -

Cost-Benefit Analysis of Artificial Recharge in Las Vegas Valley, Nevada
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)An integral part of groundwater management in Las Vegas Valley, Nev., is artificial recharge. Artificial groundwater recharge started in the late 1980s and as of the year 2000, the Southern Nevada Water Authority entities ...
