Modeling Two‐Well System in a Stratified Aquifer
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)A mathematical model and computational methods were developed for the flow behavior analysis of a stratified aquifer in response to simultaneous pumping of two fluids from both sides of the interface. A typical application ... -
Average Annual Damage by Flood Frequency Zone
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)Average annual flood damage can be calculated individually for each flood‐plain property, but a less time‐consuming approach is to estimate average annual damage using a set of typical values for buildings in specific ... -
Simulating the Flood Mitigation Role of Wetlands
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)A simulation methodology was developed for evaluating the flood mitigation potential of inland wetlands. The methodology accommodates widely used computer models with generally available input data. Being a watershed ... -
Discussion of “<i>Constraints to Managing Interstate Aquifer</i>” by David C. Noonan, Myron S. Rosenberg, and Duncan W. Wood (April, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Groundwater Management by Chance‐Constrained Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)A stochastic groundwater management model for a confined, homogenous, and nonuniform aquifer is developed using the concept of response function in the linear system theory. The Cooper‐Jacob equation is used to develop the ... -
Discussion of “<i>Limitations on Seasonal Snowmelt Forecast Accuracy</i>” by Dennis P. Lettenmaier (July, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Erratum: “Estimating O&M Cost When Costs Vary With Flow” by Thomas M. Walski (July, 1984)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985) -
Development Impacts on Water Quality: A Case Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)The modified STORM is applied to analyze water quality impacts of a proposed large‐scale planned residential development in a New Jersey coastal community. Model adaptation to the area of interest is based on site‐specific ... -
Development of a Habitat Time Series
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1986)A physical habitat versus streamflow function can be treated as a surrogate for an economic production function. Using the function and a time series of streamflows, a time series of physical habitats can be generated. ... -
Planning Detention Storage for Stormwater Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A method for estimating detention storage capacity in stormwater management is presented. A generalized storage‐overflow relationship is derived. This relationship defines real available storage (empty space in detention ... -
Development of a Flood Management Plan
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A comprehensive flood plain management plan was developed for the City of Keene, New Hampshire, reflecting the policies of Section 73 of Public Law 93‐251. Community attitudes were investigated through questionnaires, ... -
Optimization of Water Quality Monitoring Networks
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Water quality and biological monitoring provide an indication of the degree to which the natural environment has been affected by anthropogenic‐activities. Currently, this monitoring is both expensive and time‐consuming. ... -
Multi‐Objective Analysis with Subjective Information
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A method is presented for incorporating subjective information into multi‐objective evaluations. The method is based upon an eigenvalue and eigenvector analysis and structures multi‐objective evaluations into a series of ... -
Lower Mississippi Valley Floods of 1982 and 1983
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)The 1982–83 floods on the main stem and tributaries of the Middle and Lower Mississippi River spanned a six‐month period from December, 1982–June, 1983. The flood season was initially marked by three tributary‐centered ... -
Application of Extreme Value Theory to Flood Damage
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Flood plain management requires assessment of the costs and benefits of all projects under consideration. The benefits translate mainly into flood damage reduction. This study presents a methodology for estimating flood ... -
A Simulating Cost and Quality in Water Distribution
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A spatial approach that disaggregates the water supply system into the components of acquisition‐treatment and transmission‐distribution, allows these components to be studied in isolation and in combination. Each of these ... -
Problems with Modeling Real‐Time Reservoir Operations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)Existence of several problems associated with the optimization of real‐time operations of reservoir systems is demonstrated. The first problem presented is due to the use of imperfect streamflow (inflow to the reservoir) ... -
Grouno‐Water Reservoir Operation for Drought Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)A hydrodynamic groundwater model is integrated with a multi‐level management model to formulate a composite model for investigating groundwater reservoir operation for drought management. The hydrodynamic model solves the ... -
Ground‐Water Contamination in Silicon Valley
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)In the southern San Francisco Bay Area, a state regulatory agency carried out a questionnaire survey to determine the locations and characteristics of underground chemical storage and handling facilities at industrial sites ... -
State Water Supply Management in New Jersey
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1985)In New Jersey, existing water supply problems involve water availability during droughts and other emergencies, contamination, especially of ground water, and institutional problems. A drought occurred in 1980, just as the ...
