Flood Frequency Hydrology with Limited Data for the Weser River Basin, Germany
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)This study investigates challenges of and solutions for estimating regional flood discharges from a limited number of stream gauge records with varying lengths. Routine application of standard analytical flood frequency ... -
Sensitivity of Groundwater Components to Irrigation Withdrawals during Droughts on Agricultural-Intensive Karst Aquifer in the Apalachicola–Chattahoochee–Flint River Basin
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)In southwestern Georgia, increased groundwater withdrawal for irrigation in the Lower Flint River Basin (LFRB) is greatly affecting the supply of freshwater to downstream regions during drought years. This study was ... -
Comparison of Measured and Simulated Urban Soil Hydrologic Properties
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Urban communities use hydrologic models to plan for and assess the effectiveness of stormwater control measures. Although emphasis is placed on soils as permeable surfaces that regulate the rainfall-runoff process, ... -
Predicting Spatial Variability of Soil Bulk Density in Gravel-Mulched Fields
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Information about soil bulk density (SBD) is important for soil-water conservation, carbon content, and nutrient reserves. The authors studied the spatial variability of SBD in gravel-mulched fields of different ages in ... -
Strategic Insights on the Role of Farm Ponds as Nonconventional Stormwater Management Facilities
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Farm ponds are constructed for different purposes in many parts of the world, including irrigation, livestock water, and so forth; however, their impacts are not fully captured in stormwater application. As part of this ... -
Efficient Statistical Approach to Multisite Downscaling of Extreme Temperature Series Using Singular-Value Decomposition Technique
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Downscaling techniques are required to describe the linkages between global climate model (GCM) outputs at coarse grid resolutions and surface variables at suitable finer scales for climate change impact and adaptation ... -
Modified Channel-Routing Scheme for SWAT Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Because of its relatively easy quantification in comparison with the variables of other hydrological components, streamflow is an important and primary component for modeling in a watershed study. This study attempts to ... -
Boundary Shear Stress Distribution in Straight Compound Channel Flow Using Artificial Neural Network
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Boundary shear stress distribution of a compound channel is generally influenced by the geometric, roughness, and hydraulic parameters. Experiments are performed on both homogeneous and nonhomogeneous compound channels to ... -
Data Assimilation in Hydrologic Routing: Impact of Model Error and Sensor Placement on Flood Forecasting
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Diverse hydrologic and hydraulic models of varying complexities have been proposed in the past few decades to accurately predict the water levels and discharges along rivers. Among them, the hydrologic routing models are ... -
Composite Agrometeorological Drought Index Accounting for Seasonality and Autocorrelation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Drought indices are statistical tools used for monitoring the departure from normal conditions of water availability. Recently, the multivariate nature of droughts was addressed through composite indices capable of including ... -
Bayesian Consideration of GCM Simulations for Rainfall Quantile Estimation: Uncertainty from GCMs and RCP Scenarios
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Global climate model (GCM) simulations are generally used in the estimation procedures regarding future rainfall quantiles. However, the use of GCM simulations brings several problems, such as a coarse spatial resolution ... -
Calculator to Estimate Annual Infiltration Performance of Roadside Swales
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Roadside swales or drainage ditches are low-impact development (LID) practices for stormwater treatment and control, and there is a need to quantify their infiltration performance for design and planning purposes. A roadside ... -
Uncertainty Propagation of Hydrologic Modeling in Water Supply System Performance: Application of Markov Chain Monte Carlo Method
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)It is imperative for cities to develop sustainable water management and planning strategies in order to best serve urban communities that are currently facing increasing population and water demand. Water resources managers ... -
Assessment of Temporally Conditioned Runoff Fractions in Unregulated Rivers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Increasing nonstationarity increases the uncertainty of hydrological processes. Consequently, intrinsic randomness increases in magnitude and occurrence. In order to generate a reliable and robust predictive model, time ... -
Multivariate Modeling of Annual Instantaneous Maximum Flows Using Copulas
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018)Although copula functions have been successively applied to flood frequency analysis, their application has usually been restricted to modeling bivariate dependence. This is because higher-dimensional expressions are only ... -
