The Impact of the I-664 Bridge-Tunnel Crossing on Sedimentation
A sedimentation evaluation was made of the proposed I-664 Bridge-Tunnel complex across the James River, Virginia. This paper briefly describes the procedures used and the results obtained...
Tidal Inlet Sand Transport in Rollover Pass, Texas
For Rollover Pass, which is a man-made, artificially stabilized tidal inlet located on the upper Gulf Coast of Texas, the magnitude of the net sand transport through the Pass was estimated...
Simulation of Wetland Hydrology and Hydrodynamics
The relative changes in water stage in swamps and marshes and the variations of current velocities in bayous and canals under present conditions are calculated, using a computer watershed...
On-Line Hydrologic Simulation of Lake Conroe Reservoir Releases for Downstream Flood Control
Texas A&M Watershed Model (TAMWM) is used to simulate the response of the Lake Conroe watershed following a storm event and to develop an operational policy for flood releases...
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...
Computer Model Study of a Contaminated Well Field-Groundwater Pollution Source Identification and Contaminant Plume Simulation
Toxic waste contamination is currently threatening the public water-supply wells of the Town of Vestal, New York. As a practical tool to assist the remedial investigation, a two-dimensional...
Levees at St. Louis?More Harm Than Good?
The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District (SLD), conducted an evaluation into the effects of Federal flood control projects on St. Charles County. Questions to be addressed...
Agricultural Water Use Efficiency and Water Supply
Effects of improved agricultural practices on non-irrigated areas were determined in a 4000-mi**2 drainage area above Milford Reservoir in Kansas, by use of a continuous computer simulation...
Turbidity Control Measures Associated with Reclamation of an Abandoned Phosphatic Waste Clay Pond
Area 3A in the Tenoroc State Reserve near Lakeland, Florida is an inactive and abandoned phosphatic waste clay area. The disposal area has been inactive for several years and the clays...
Suspended Sediment Transport from Nonpoint Sources
Precipitation, runoff, and suspended sediment concentration data were collected in a predominantly agricultural watershed in southwestern Illinois from January 1982 through October 1984....
SEDIMOT II Application to a Large Coastal Watershed
SEDIMOT II was applied to Barker Reservoir watershed in Houston, Texas, in order to simulate sedimentation in the drainage area and the relative effectiveness of sediment control strategies....
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...
Computer Modeling of Groundwater Flow
In attempting to numerically solve the nonlinear equation for flows in porous media, the Galerkin process, which bears a great similarity to direct methods of the calculus of variations,...
Simulation of Far-Field Thermal Effects from Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant
A computer model was used to evaluate the far-field effects of revised thermal discharge limitations at the Tennessee Valley Authority's Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN)....
Dual Drainage System Balancing Design Using Microcomputer Simulation
This paper describes the development and application of microcomputer software titled INTERHYD for design of a dual urban drainage system in Portland, Maine. The design problem consisted...
Analyzing Combined Sewer Overflow Events
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency/Illinois Pollution Control Board (ILEPA/IPCB) direct that combined sewer system overflows (CSO) be given sufficient treatment including 'first...
Assessment of Water-Shortage Risks Under Various Use Options for Cedar Bluff Reservoir
Cedar Bluff Reservoir is located on the Smoky Hill River near Arnold, Kansas, with a drainage area of 5,530 mi**2. The reservoir was originally built for flood control, irrigation and...
Ground Water Management Using Computers
Both a mainframe and personal computers are used by the Water Use Division of the South Florida Water Management District in the consumptive water use permitting process. Numerical and...
Microcomputer Control for a Small Hydroelectric Peaking Plant
Peaking plants pose a special problem for control. The new facilities are generally a very small part of a large system. Determination of the parameters necessary to run the plant to best...
Statewide Hydrologic Data Base and Analysis System
