Dynamic Optimal Groundwater Management with Inclusion of Fixed Costs
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Obtaining optimal solutions for groundwater resources planning problems, while simultaneously considering both fixed costs and time-varying pumping rates, is a challenging task. Application of conventional optimization ... -
Boundary Schematization in Regulatory Mixing Zone Analysis
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Water quality regulations often permit a “mixing zone” or “allocated impact zone” in which the initial dilution of a wastewater occurs rather imposing strict end-of-pipe criteria. Since wastewater treatment typically entails ... -
Discussion of “Velocity Profiles and Unsteady Pipe Friction in Transient Flow,” by Bruno Brunone, Bryan W. Karney, Michele Mecarelli, and Marco Ferrante
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002) -
Uncertainty Analysis in Contaminated Aquifer Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper presents a systematic approach for solving the management problem of a contaminated groundwater supply system. The proposed methodology begins with the selection of a supply water quality criterion based on a ... -
Fuzzy Model for Real-Time Reservoir Operation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)A fuzzy rule-based control model for multipurpose real-time reservoir operation is constructed. A new, mathematically justified methodology for fuzzy inference—total fuzzy similarity—is used and compared with the more ... -
Hydrologic Regionalization of Watersheds. II: Applications
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Multiple regression analysis (MRA) and a time series model (TSM) are developed and validated for using watershed characteristics to synthesize streamflow hydrographs. Relationships between the streamflow parameters and ... -
Simulating Mobile Populations in Aquatic Ecosystems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Many aquatic species of management interest, such as endangered, sport, or commercially valuable fish, move extensively within a hydrosystem as they use different habitats for spawning, rearing, feeding, and refuge. ... -
Review of Automated Floodplain Delineation from Digital Terrain Models
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Computer based floodplain delineation tools have become increasingly popular in flood hazard mapping and floodplain management. Water resources engineers are using these tools as a part of their professional practices. A ... -

Uncertainty in Coupled Nonpoint Source and Stream Water-Quality Models
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) and the mean first-order reliability method are applied to determine the parameters significantly affecting uncertainty in the simulated dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations at the point in ... -
Making Watershed Partnerships Work: A Review of the Empirical Literature
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Two main goals are achieved in this review of the empirical literature on factors affecting conflict resolution in watershed partnerships. The first is an assessment of two public policy theories relevant to partnership ... -

EXPLORE—Hybrid Expert System for Water Networks Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001) -
River Basin Network Model for Integrated Water Quantity/Quality Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)The MODSIM river basin network flow model is extended to directly incorporate constraints on concentrations of conservative water quality constituents. The extended model MODSIMQ is linked with the U.S. Environmental ... -
Piece-by-Piece Approach to Solving Large Nonlinear Water Resources Management Models
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Most large nonlinear optimization models are composed of “pieces”—subsets of decision variables—and constraints whose union is the entire model. Each piece represents an additional aspect of the situation being modeled. ... -
Overinvestment When Allocating Costs of Wastewater Treatment Plant
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)There is a potential for overinvestment of resources into flow reduction when two cities jointly own a wastewater treatment plant. One city can shift more of the plant's total fixed cost onto the other city if it reduces ... -
Probabilistic Model of Ammonia and Toxicity Status for Urban Lake
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)The development of a probabilistic modeling framework to conduct a priori simulations (forecasts) of the concentration of total ammonia (T-NH -

Evapotranspiration Intensifies over the Conterminous United States
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2001)Using long-term (1948–1996) pan evaporation measurements, a 6% increase in warm-season (May–October) actual evapotranspiration (
