Local Government Implementation of Chesapeake Bay Protection
The 1984 session of the Maryland General Assembly concluded with the passage of a legislative package on the Chesapeake Bay. One of the cornerstones of the package is the Critical Areas...

An Open Space Funding Program for Coastal Preservation
The Maryland Program Open Space (POS) Program and funding technique provides a model for the development of a funding program for water quality, tributary, coastal zone, estuarine, and...

PVEM?A Model for Assessing Vessel Air Pollutants
The Port Vessel Emission Model (PVEM) is a computer program which calculates air pollutant emissions resulting from vessel activity in a port for various operations scenarios. These scenarios...

Management Strategies for a Mangrove Estuary
The management plan for Rookery Bay National Estuarine Sanctuary uses three mutually dependent management strategies: developing and implementing a land and water management plan; conducting...

Discharge Zone Classification System for Southern Puget Sound
This paper identifies marine areas where new or expanded discharges are unacceptable based on existing knowledge; e. g. , water quality standards are currently not met, and impairment...

The World's First Hydrorama
The concept of HYDRORAMA exceeds conventional museum-like operations. It includes hotel/motel accommodation, academic courses organized by world-round university sources, permanent expositions...

Coral Reef Modeling: Key Largo Case Study
A numerical model called CORALSIM has been developed for the Key Largo Coral Reef National Marine Sanctuary in the Florida Keys. The model was developed as a management tool to study the...

Off-Site Water Quality or On-Site Productivity
Nonpoint sources of pollution are being recognized as the primary source of water quality degradation in many coastal areas. In those areas where management programs are being implemented,...

Watershed Management in the Eighties
The papers included in this publication discuss state-of-the-art methods and current research on management and present case studies on current projects and practices on applied watershed...

Hydropower
Recent Developments
The Foothills Project has been under consideration by the Denver Board of Water Commissions for many years. It is one of the major steps in the continued efforts of the Board to provide...

Numerical Modelling of Pollutant Transport from a Pond to a Stream
The problem of transport of pollutants in groundwater flow from a polluted shallow pond to a natural stream is considered. A numerical model predicting changes in quality of ground water...

Control of Select Priority Pollutants in Stormwater
A simulation program to generate the runoff quantity and quality for each storm event over a 5 year period was written. Chemical loading rate data from highways was used. Runoff was considered...

The Effects of Long Term Withdrawals on the Mid and Lower Hawthorne Aquifers, Cape Coral, Florida
The paper reports on a study to assess the water resource availability of two artesian aquifers (the mid-Hawthorn and lower Hawthorn) in Cape Coral, Florida. The impacts of future withdrawal...

A Ground Water Flow Model for Protection of the Northwest Well Field, Dade County, Florida
A new study was initiated to determine the appropriate cone of depression for the Northwest Well Field and to develop land use restrictions within that area. A finite-difference ground...

The Microcomputer as an Intelligent Workstation in Large Scale Hydrologic Modeling
In an effort to improve the efficiency of the hydrologic modeling activities of the Maryland State Highway Administration (MSHA), a cooperative project between MSHA, the Federal Highway...

Advances in Selective Withdrawal
The authors present the results of recent selective withdrawal research in the form of a general mathematical description of this stratified flow phenomenon. A new description for boundary...

Statewide Hydrologic Data Base and Analysis System
The Wyoming Water Research Center (WWRC) at the University of Wyoming has developed, in cooperation with the Wyoming State Engineer's Office, a statewide Water Resources Data System (WRDS)...

Flow and Mixing Calculations for a Two-Dimensional Reservoir Water Quality Model
A two-dimensional reservoir water quality box model has been developed and applied to several Tennessee Valley Authority reservoirs including a mainstem reservoir that is fully mixed vertically,...

Stream Research at Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory
Stream research at Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory has been directed primarily towards an understanding of long-term responses to logging. Forest logging causes many changes in streams including...

Assessment of Sediment Problems in Peoria Lake, Illinois
Peoria Lake, located on the Illinois River in Illinois, is the deepest lake in the river valley. Since 1903, the lake has experienced approximately a 31% loss of original storage capacity...
