Large Basin Runoff Forecasting on Small Computers
The Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) developed a semiautomatic software package for making deterministic outlooks of basin moisture storage conditions, basin runoff,...
Reservoir Operation Simulation on Micro Computers
A reservoir operations planning model for a potential reservoir site on the Karadj River in Iran was developed utilizing a personal computer and a commercial spreadsheet package. The model...
Microcomputer Simulation of Jets and Wakes
Illustrations are presented for radial jets and for turbulent flows in the wake of circular cylinders. The paper illustrates the use and importance of low-cost computational tools in engineering...
A 1-D Saltwater Intrusion Program on the IBM-PC
A one-dimensional finite element program has been developed for use on the IBM-PC as an aid to teaching groundwater hydrology to students. The program uses linear elements and the Galerkin...
An Operational Dynamic Routing Model for Small Computers
The paper reports on a study to develop an efficient dynamic routing procedure that can be used on an IBM PC/XT microcomputer as the routing component in a comprehensive watershed simulation...
Stormwater Routing for Small Sites
Traditional hydrologic analyses and detention design procedures are too time consuming and costly to be warranted for small projects. This paper discusses a direct solution for sizing...
Microcomputers in Highway Drainage Design
This paper discusses some of the benefits and uses of microcomputers in highway drainage design and discusses the programs presently being developed. Subjects covered include hydrologic...
Floodplain Modeling for the Henry Street Basin
A study focusing on the primary conveyance system in the 5. 7 mi**2 Henry Street Drainage Basin in Hillsborough County, Florida was conducted to develop remedial measures for the control...
Predicting Overland Flow and Infiltration
The kinematic overland flow and the Green-Ampt infiltration equations are coupled and rewritten in terms of several nondimensional parameters. Constant values of these parameters imply...
Designing for Residual Flooding
Flood control projects should incorporate designs and responses for flooding of the protected areas due to exceedance, overtopping, or failure of the features. Design strategies for levees,...
Simulation of Marsh Growth Under Rising Sea Levels
A method for computation of the rise of a marsh surface is presented that includes the effects of tidal and sea level variations, aggregation and deposition of cohesive suspended sediments,...
A Two-Dimensional Numerical Model of Thermal Discharges in Coastal Regions
This paper describes a two-dimensional numerical model of thermal discharges in coastal regions. The model uses potential flow theory to calculate the ambient velocity field of the coastal...
Computational Model for Computing Dune Erosion
This paper summarizes the development of a computer model for determining potential beach and dune erosion along the Florida Panhandle. The results have been used as a guide in delineating...
Simulating Flow in the Tidal Potomac River
A one-dimensional unsteady flow model has been applied to the tidal Potomac River, including its major tributaries and marginal embayments, between Washington, D. C. and Indian Head, Md....
Canal Discharge Impacts on Fahka Union Bay
The effect of a large drainage canal's discharge on Fahka Union Bay's value as a nursery ground for estuarine-dependent fish and shellfish, including commercially...
Tidal Flooding Study for a Seattle Watershed
The paper reports on a study to develop a correlation between rainfall volumes and tidal storm surges based on recorded rainfall and tide data. This correlation was used to establish tidal...
Real-Time Monitoring for Ohio Basin Water Management
