Computer Simulation of the Long-Term Operation of the Manitoba Hydro System
The System Simulation Model is a deterministic long-term planning model used to simulate reservoir operation and energy allocation in the Manitoba Hydro system. The model uses the method...

Multi-Purpose, Multi-Reservoir Simulation on a PC
The methodology and difficulties in converting a large, general purpose, mainframe, batch oriented computer program (for reservoir simulation) to work effectively in the PC environment...

Colorado River Microcomputer Model
This paper describes a computer model which simulates the monthly water and power operations of the twelve reservoirs in the Colorado River Basin for a given demand projection in the future....

An Emerging Application of Microcomputers in Water Control
Plans being developed at the Corps' Hydrologic Engineering Center propose a gradual transfer of water control support from minicomputers to a network of microcomputer workstations....

Role of Data Management in Water Control
The success of a system of software that must provide the water control user with current information, model analysis results, and forecasts of future behavior, is closely associated with...

Computer Program for Smoothing and Correcting Hourly Time Series Data
A FORTRAN computer program has been developed for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers St. Louis District that automatically screens and corrects hourly time series data for gross errors and...

Development of the Hydrodata CD-ROM Data Storage System
To store and retrieve data from two of the USGS WATSTORE databases - the daily and peak values files - and the Summary of the Day file from the National Climatic Data Center, the authors...

Short-Term Hydroelectric Scheduling Model for WAPA
An optimization model, data system, and a series of user-friendly input/output screens (the HYDRopower Optimization Program, HYDROP) have recently been implemented at the Loveland Area...

TVA Weekly Scheduling Model Application Experience
Development of TVA's Weekly Scheduling Model was completed in 1980. Eight years of experience covering a wide variety of applications has now been accumulated. Since the basic...

Production Scheduling Model for Hydro-Qu?bec
A deterministic optimization model is described which allows to schedule the production of a predominantly-hydroelectric power system. Demand and exogenous inflows are assumed known with...

Utilization of the Ottawa River Regulation Modeling System (MORRO)
The MORRO model was developed in Canada for use by the Ottawa River Regulation Planning Board (ORRPB) to integrate the operation of the Ottawa River during the spring freshet season, when...

Comprehensive Optimization Model for Hydroelectric Reservoir Operations
The Energy Management and Maintenance Analysis (EMMA) model is used to maximize net revenues to Manitoba Hydro considering the operation of hydroelectric and thermal generation, generation...

Alternative Methods of Generating Hydrologic Data for Reservoir Optimization
Given an historically based set of natural flows for the Colorado River at Lees Ferry, a series of 16 indexed sequential traces 78 years in length were derived using a 'wrap around' approach...

Real-Time Hydrosystem Operations Using Probabilistic Balancing Rule Models
A Probabilistic Balancing Rule model is presented and shown to be effective in the prescription of real-time (daily) operations for a multi-purpose surface water reservoir system. In this...

Flood Warning Systems
A valuable review of the current state-of-the-art of flood warning systems is represented by the papers on flood warning systems presented at the ASCE Workshop on 'Computerized...

Planning and Implementing a Wide Area Flood Warning System: The IFLOWS Experience
The Integrated Flood Observing and Warning System (IFLOWS) is an interactive hydrometeorological data collection and processing system. It consists of three major subsystems; data acquisition,...

Flash Flood Hydrologic Forecast Model, ADVIS
The Flash Flood Hydrologic Forecast Model, ADVIS, is the computer replacement of manual forecast procedures using tables. This interactive forecast model computes a crest forecast, plots...

PROFS Role in Modernization of the National Weather Service
This paper describes the overall modernization procedure and the computing infrastructure that will support hydrologic operations in a prototype workstation that will be available in National...

Mesoscale Numerical Weather Prediction for Reservoir Design and Flash Flood Management
A portable, interactive weather prediction system (PIWPS), which runs on a desktop workstation, has been developed and tested on several heavy precipitation events in the Rocky Mountains,...

WATFLOOD: A Real-Time, Microcomputer-Based Data Management and Flood Forecast System
WATFLOOD is a menu-driven micro-computer based flood forecasting system incorporating data management programs to enable real-time use of weather radar for flood forecasting. The main...
