Imperial Irrigation District Water Conservation
Imperial Irrigation District (IID) and Metropolitan Water District (MWD) have entered into a Water Conservation Agreement to conserve 106, 110 acre-feet (1.31 ? 108...
Effects of Drainage on Water, Sediment and Biota
The U.S. Department of the Interior started a program in 1985 to identify effects of irrigation-induced trace constituents in water, bottom sediment and biota. The program was developed...
Tidal Flooding Analysis, San Francisco Bay
Many leveed areas adjacent to San Francisco Bay are potentially subject to tidal flooding. In response to this concern, Congress authorized the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to conduct...
Winds, and Their Effects on Tides, in San Francisco Bay
Many leveed areas adjacent to San Francisco Bay are potentially subject to tidal flooding. In response to this concern, Congress authorized the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to conduct...
Bed Load Roughness in Supercritical Flow
A supercritical concrete channel is proposed for Mission Creek located in Santa Barbara County, California. The proposed channel may transport gravels and cobbles as bed load during large...
Dam Break Analysis for a Series of Dams Using the HEC-1 and DAMBRK Computer Programs
The HEC-1 and DAMBRK computer programs were developed by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) [3] and by the National Weather Service (NWS) [4], respectively....
Gravitational Circulation in a Tidal Strait
Eight months of continuous measurements of tidal current profiles with an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) were made in Carquinez Strait, California, during 1988 for the purpose...
Model Study of an Intake Structure
To increase the delivery capacity of an existing gravity-feed water supply pipeline in Orange County, California, modification of the existing structure and placement of a booster pumping...
Scientific Visualization Techniques Applied to Water Quality and Transport
Applying the advanced-computer technology available at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), researchers from SDSC and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) simulated and visualized numerical...
Geographic Information Systems in Water Resources Management
The management of surface and ground water resources within Southern California is increasingly difficult. As population expands, municipal demands for water are increasing. At the same...
Numerical Modeling of Proposed Channel Designs (J. F. Baldwin III), California
Ship simulator studies of proposed improvements to navigable waterways are a very important part of any assessment. The John F. Baldwin Channel (JFB) Project (Phase III) is a ship channel...

Remediation and Mitigation Associated with Contamination of Water by Irrigation Drainage
Inorganic trace constituent or pesticide contamination problems associated with irrigation drainage from Federally constructed or managed irrigation projects have been identified in several...
In-Situ Calibration of USGS Piezometer Installations
Among the few potentially liquefiable sites around the world that have been permanently instrumented with pore-pressure transducers and accelerometers, only the Wildlife Site in the Imperial...
Lifeline Earthquake Engineering at the Turn of the Century
