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...
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...
Solute Transport Modeling under Unsteady Flow Regimes: An Application of the Modular Modeling System
Many existing solute transport codes rely on the assumption of steady (i.e. time-invariant) flow. This assumption severely limits such models, as accurate simulations often require realistic...
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...
Future Directions in Water Resources Education
Water resources education at the undergraduate level must change to properly prepare professionals for the 21st Century. While few changes are needed in technical content, graduates must...
Evolving Institutions for Managing the ACF Basin
The ACF basin is a case of interstate conflict in resource management. This study looks at the planning underway with regard to mechanisms for managing the basin....
Optimal Planning of Combined Sewer Rehabilitation
The need to rehabilitate many of the existing sewer systems to keep them operational is evident. The development of a rehabilitation plan that optimizes the use of funds is the first step...
Real-Time Water-Control System for the Trinity River, Texas
To provide information for improved flood prevention and control in the Trinity river basin in Texas, we developed a real-time water-control system that (1) retrieves rainfall and streamflow...
Identifying the True Issues of Hydropower Resource Development in an Era of Public and Regulatory Policy Transition
The last several years have produced changes in public and regulatory policy that have provided for increased roles and participation of resource agencies, Native Americans, and the public...
