Time‐Series Modeling for Long‐Range Stream‐Flow Forecasting
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Currently used methods for long‐range water‐supply forecasting are compared with statistical time‐series tools, such as seasonal auto‐regressive integrated moving‐average modeling. Evaluation of several theoretical models ... -
Policy on Private Water Sales in Rural Ghana
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)This paper examines strategies for forming public‐private sector partnerships in order to improve the distribution of water in rural areas in Ghana. The options explored include: (1) An outright sale of the existing ... -
Measuring and Modeling Chlorine Propagation in Water Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Until recently most emphasis on implementing Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) under the Safe Drinking Water Act and its Amendments (SDWAA) has been focused on drinking water as it leaves the treatment plant. However, the ... -
Optimum Operation of Recharge Basins
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Mathematical models based on nonlinear programming are developed for operating recharge‐basin systems (also referred to as soil‐aquifer treatment systems). The objective of these optimization models is to determine the ... -
Conjunctive Operation of Hydroelectric and Thermal Power Plants
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)An integrated approach combining deterministic dynamic programming and simulation models has been developed and applied to determine the optimal operation policy and performance of a mixed hydro‐thermal power system ... -
Incorporating Economic Analysis in Irrigation Design and Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Traditional principles for the design, operation, and evaluation of irrigation systems do not adequately incorporate the scarcity value of water. This paper presents an operational framework that attempts to integrate ... -
Optimal Capacity‐Expansion Planning in Multiaquifer Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Three models were developed and tested for the optimal capacity expansion planning in a hypothetical multiaquifer system. The response of the system was included in the models using response matrices. All models are 0/1 ... -
Relationships between <i>n</i>‐Day Flood Volumes for Infrequent Large Floods
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Design floods of specified frequency are used to consider relevant hydrologic and economic factors in the evaluation of operation, or changes in operation, of flood‐damage mitigation facilities. The design flood hydrograph ... -
Cooperative Ground‐Water Resources Management: Local Perspective
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Planning of water resources for municipalities requires the same engineering and management principles no matter at which government level it is conducted; however, there are some advantages to primary involvement at the ... -
Adaptive Forecasting of Hourly Municipal Water Consumption
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)An adaptive smoothing‐filtering approach for on‐line forecasting of hourly municipal water use time series is presented. This method is suitable for forecasting an hourly water‐consumption time series that is influenced ... -
Discussion of “<i>Susceptibility of Reservoirs to Drought Using Palmer Index</i>” by William K. Johnson and Roger W. Kohne (May/June, 1993, Vol. 119, No. 3)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994) -
Discussion of “<i>Optimal Operation of Multiple‐Reservoir System</i>” by Philip D. Crawley and Graeme C. Dandy (January/February, 1993, Vol. 119, No. 1)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994) -
Effectiveness of Water‐Conservation Measures in Greater Athens Area
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)An ARIMA (auto regressive‐integrated‐moving‐average) time‐series modeling framework is used to assess the effectiveness of water‐conservation measures taken in the Greater Athens Area of Greece after May 1990, in an effort ... -
Optimal Rehabilitation Model for Water‐Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)This paper describes a new methodology that can select the pipes to be rehabilitated and/or replaced in an existing water‐distribution system and determine the increase in pumping capacities so that the water demand and ... -

Management of Recharge Dams in Saudi Arabia
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Five alternative management plans were applied at two recharge dams in central Saudi Arabia with the aim of improving their recharge efficiencies. The management plans included the present management system, release of ... -
