Subcatchment Parameterization for Runoff Modeling Using Digital Elevation Models
Numerical algorithms are presented to estimate the length, width and slope of rectangular planes representing irregularly shaped overland contributing areas defined on raster Digital Elevation...

Effects of Spatial Data Resolution and Subarea Size on a Distributed Runoff Model
Spatial data layers of elevation, land use, and soils for a small agricultural watershed in Pennsylvania were used to study the effect of resolution degradation of raster data on the output...

Automated Tools for Spatially Distributed Rainfall/Runoff Modeling
A watershed modeling system (WMS) has been developed to address the needs of surface water rainfall/runoff computer simulations. WMS, developed at the Engineering Computer Graphics Laboratory...

Construction of Performance Contours on the Storage-Yield Plane of a Within-Year Reservoir System
The reservoir storage-reliability-yield (S-R-Y) relationships developed in the past have considered only the probability of failure to meet the target requirements, but not the likely...

Risk Analysis of Joint Reservoir Operation in Central Taiwan
Risk analysis for shortage of water on the joint operation of Li-Yu-Tan Reservoir and Shih-Kang Dam (Reservoir) in central Taiwan is presented in this paper. Deter ministic simulation,...

Results of a GIS/HEC-1 Interface Module
Great strives have been made in recent years to automate the S.C.S. curve number weighting process required for large-scale watershed modeling utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS)...

Restoration of Abandoned Meanders on the Middle Fork Forked Deer River, Tennessee
The Middle Fork Forked Deer River in western Tennessee historically had a sinuous course within a wide floodplain. In the early 1900's, local interests dug large straight...

SAMS: Software for Simulating Streamflow Series
This paper introduces SAMS, a computer software developed for the analysis, modeling, and generation of hydrologic time series such as annual and monthly streamfiows. It is written in...

Verification of a 3D Flow Model Using Laboratory Data
The ASCE Task Sub-Committee on 3D Free Surface Flow Model Veri fications has been developing test cases and/or procedures for both computational model developers and users over the past...

Simulation of Dissolved Oxygen in Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
A one-dimensional model has been developed to simulate water quality in a complex multi-channel estuarine system. The model utilizes a Lagrangian reference frame for transport computations....

Increasing Computational Accuracy of Radial Gate Flows
Radial (Tainter) gates are the most widely used flow control structure on large, open channel conveyance systems. In contrast, the hydraulic forces are complicated and this type of gate...

Field Determination of Flow through a Pressure Regulating Valve
This paper presents a computer methodology to calculate flow through a pressure regulating valve for different opening percentages and a given pressure differential. The methodology is...

Numerical Simulation of Bridge Abutment Scour Development
This paper reports a project to simulate the development of a local scour hole around a bridge abutment by a computational model. From the prelim inary results obtained, it may be concluded...

Data Analysis for Computer Modeling of Thermal Discharges
Assessment of the thermal discharge impact upon the environment and design of the appropriate discharge structure necessitate a range of data activities, from extensive field measurements,...

The HEC NexGen Software Development Project
The NexGen project is developing successor software packages to the existing family of HEC computer programs. Development is occurring via teams comprised of technical specialists, computer...

Hydrologic Modeling System
The Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) is new-generation software for precipitation-runoff simulation that will supersede the Hydrologic Engineering Centefs HEC-l program. Technical...

Next Generation Flood Damage Analysis Program
The Hydrologic Engineering Center has developed a next generation Flood Damage Analysis computer program for formulating and evaluating flood damage reduction plans. The program design...

Karst Water Inventories Using Thermography
An airborne thermal camera was used to locate springs, swallets, and caves in a karst watershed. The detector was an imaging infrared camera with a temperature sensitivity of approximately...

Effect of Pump-Ins on California Aqueduct Water Quality
A model has been developed, based on the assumption of constant Aqueduct volume, to predict the effect of ground water pump-ins on Aqueduct water quality. Designated SuperCAMP (California...

Water Resources Planning for the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, Montana
