Partnering in Water Resources Planning in Florida
This paper discusses successful partnering efforts by the Corps of Engineers in water resources development in Florida. The partnering involves the Corps, local project sponsors and other...

Wetland Engineering, Design, and Construction: State-of-the-Science and Research Needs
Local, state, and federal agencies, special interest groups, and individual landowners are undertaking wetland construction projects at a feverish pace to mitigate past and anticipated...

Use of Flood Control Features for Environmental Mitigation
The US Army Engineer District, Vicksburg (CELMK), plans to construct up to 167 water control structures, 52 confined disposal facilities, and 47 barrow pits as part of a major flood control...

Innovative Wetland Re-creation in Urban Setting
The project site is a 106 hectare, mixed-used, commercial development east of Tampa, Florida and at the westerly limit of the town of Brandon, Florida. Delaney Creek traverses the site...

Biological Modeling in the Columbia Basin: An Organized Approach to Dealing with Uncertainty
Development of the Columbia River basin has had a profound impact on its natural resources, particularly species of Pacific Salmon. Passage of the Northwest Power Act of 1980 put in motion...

Managing Snake River Operations for Juvenile Salmon Migration
A simulation model of Snake River hydrology and water management institutions has been developed. The model was used to investigate management changes to enhance flow conditions for migrating...

Hydro Models and Salmon Recovery in the Northwest
Hydro regulation models provide extensive support for analyzing the efficacy of salmon recovery plans in the Northwest. Power planners developed these computer programs to help plan and...

City of Federal Way Panther Lake Surface Water Study?A Case Study of HSPF Modelling in Urban Detention Basins
This paper presents a case study of using Hydrologic Simulation Program-Fortran (HSPF) as a tool for sizing large urban detention facilities. The Panther Lake drainage basin is a textbook...

Simulation of Water Quality Processes in the Chicago Waterway and Upper Illinois River Systems
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency QUAL2E-UNCAS (QUAL2EU) computer program was used to simulate the water quality processes in the Chicago waterway and Upper Illinois River Systems....

Geographic Information System Application: Water Right Places of Use as Polygon Attributes
A Geographic Information System (GIS) was tested for potential use as a water resource management tool by application to a ground water study area. Because of the limitations of the particular...

Computerized Data Processing and Geographic Information Systems Applications for Development of a 3-Dimensional Groundwater Flow Model
A 3-dimensional numerical groundwater flow model was developed for a 100 square mile area located in the Santa Clara Valley, California. The model development relied upon data base and...

The Development and Use of Policy Statements in River Simulation Models
There are a number of ways in which the physical operation of a river system can be expressed in simulation models. Most of the earlier simulation models have incorporated the operating...

Advanced Decision Support Systems for Environmental Simulation Modeling
Some new computer approaches for integrating simulation models into water-quality management and planning are described. A system for integrating models, databases and decision-support...

Object-oriented River System Simulation
This paper describes an object-oriented approach to river basin simulation modeling that is event driven rather than time driven as in most river system simulation models. At the heart...

RSS: A Construction Kit for Visual Programming of River Basin Models
With the ever increasing pressure on environmental resources, there exists strong interest in river basin models which can be used to simulate proposed policy alternatives. Traditionally,...

Development of a Raw Water Master Plan Model to Assist Long Range Drought and Water Conservation Planning for the City of Louisville, Colorado
The City of Louisville, a municipal corporation charged with meeting the water demands of almost 5,000 water accounts and faced with a diminishing supply of available senior water rights...

Application of Computer Support for Water Quality Management
A Computer-Aided Support System for operation of the QUAL2E-UNCAS river water quality model has been developed for the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, North Coastal Region....

Graphics User Interface for Water Quality Model Calibration
The UC Davis Water Resources Modeling Group developed a unique Graphical Use Interface (GUI) in the Microsoft Windows environment to facilitate use of the stream mode QUAL2E for the Russian...

Remarks on Computer-Use History in Water Resources
Over the past 50 years, use of electronic computers has radically changed water resources engineering practice. It has enhanced capabilities, reduced costs and improved reliability. It...

An Historical Perspective on Water Resources Education
A professional education in water resources combines courses that apply sound science to meet popular needs with general knowledge on how society uses and views water. The graduate has...
