Reallocation Impacts of Eastern Water‐Law Changes
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Water law typically evolves through several stages in response to changing demands. Changes are likely to result in reallocation among different interests that compete for water resources. Water law at a given time is not ... -
Efficacy of ARC/INFO GIS Application to Hydrologic Modeling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)A hypothetical watershed was constructed to test the efficacy of using the ARC/INFO geographic information system to provide spatially related input for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers HEC‐1 hydrologic model. The ARC/INFO ... -
Multilevel Model for Gage and Paleoflood Data
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)A model is developed to estimate the parameters of a lognormal flow‐frequency distribution, and it can include multiple historical or paleoflood periods in which the largest flow within the period is defined and a current ... -
Parameter Estimation in Water‐Distribution Systems by Least Squares
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The weighted‐least‐squares method using sensitivity‐analysis technique is proposed for the estimation of parameters in water‐distribution systems. The parameters considered are the Hazen‐Williams coefficients for the pipes. ... -
Applications of Optimal Hydraulic Control to Ground‐Water Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Ground‐water simulation models are increasingly used for the analysis, design, and management of water‐resource problems including ground‐water supply and remediation. The solution to these problems involves some degree ... -
Flow‐Duration Curves. I: New Interpretation and Confidence Intervals
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)A flow‐duration curve (FDC) is simply the complement of the cumulative distribution function of daily, weekly, monthly (or some other time interval of) streamflow. Applications of FDCs include, but are not limited to, ... -
Risk Management in Wellhead Protection
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The theoretical basis of a risk‐management approach to wellhead protection is developed. Contaminant sources are divided into two categories: chronic sources and spills. For chronic sources, such as residential septic ... -
Unsaturated Flow Modeling—Exact Solution to Approximate Problem?
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Unsaturated flow models are increasingly being used in ground‐water quantity/quality studies to predict recharges due to rainfall. This paper presents a critical examination of the current practice of using numerical models ... -
Optimization of Freshwater Inflows to Lavaca‐Tres Palacios, Texas, Estuary
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The companion paper by the writers developed a model for the determination of optimal freshwater inflows into bays and estuaries for the purpose of balancing freshwater demands with the various types of fish harvests. This ... -
Station‐Year Approach: Tool for Estimation of Design Floods
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The processing of composite samples by the station‐year approach either coupled or not coupled to the systematic use of Hershfield's formula can be very helpful when studying design floods. Therefore, a station‐year approach ... -
Optimal Control of Water Supply Pumping Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The requirements and basic components of a typical optimal control environment for water‐supply pumping systems are presented and discussed. Examined model components include hydraulic network models, demand forecast models, ... -
Goal Programming Model for Distributing and Blending Desalinized Water
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)A goal‐programming model to determine the daily production of a seawater desalination plant and the optimal allocation of desalinated water to various blending stations is developed. At these blending stations, desalinated ... -
Diffusion Hydrodynamic Model of Shallow Estuary
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Many of the hydrodynamic models used for estuary tidal flows and storm surges are based on a set of coupled two‐dimensional hydrodynamic equations, which are obtained from the full three‐dimensional flow equations by ... -
Modeling of Infiltration from Trenches for Storm‐Water Control
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)As a means of examining the performance characteristics of an infiltration trench for storm‐water control, the infiltration rate into the soil surrounding an infiltration trench is simulated with a two‐dimensional ... -
New Methodology for Optimization of Freshwater Inflows to Estuaries
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The objective of this work is to develop a general methodology for determination of the optimal freshwater inflows into bays and estuaries to balance freshwater demands with the harvest of various types of estuarine ... -
Estimation of Peak Flow and Runoff Volume with Response Surface Method
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The probabilistic‐based calibration strategy developed in this paper was briefly reviewed and applied to derive the optimum values of eight calibration parameters. Three optimum sets are obtained: estimations of peak flow, ... -
Effects of Global Warming on Hurricane‐Induced Flooding
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)Global simulation models used to predict climate change typically have resolutions too coarse for resolving small drainage basins, creating a major obstacle to evaluating the hydrologic impacts of climate variability. The ... -
