Water Quality Implications of Encapsulated Atrazine
This paper presents the movement of both encapsulated and wettable powder atrazine under no-till and conventional-till corn in the Coastal Plain physiographic region of Maryland. Soil...
Expert System for Agricultural and Water Quality Management
Agricultural activities occur in an open environment where uncontrollable climatic events influence both agricultural productivity and water quality. A decision support system is described...
Management of Agricultural Drainage Pollution Considering Regional Cooperation
Increasing awareness of toxic substance discharge from agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley of California has resulted in discharge limits on individual constituents in agricultural drainage....
Prediction of Sedimentgraph from a Small Watershed in Poland in a Changing Environment
Estimates of sedimentgraphs and temporal distributions of sediment concentrations are essential for prediction of pollutant concentrations in streams and reservoirs. In such predictions,...
Engineering Answers to Groundwater Impact Questions Using a Geographic Information System (GIS)
Environmental concerns have raised complex questions about the impacts of increased groundwater levels adjacent to navigational pools along the Red River, Louisiana. Previous studies had...
Climate Change and Water Management Flexibility
Changes in regional climate expected to occur as a result of the accumulation of greenhouse gases may have significant impacts on water resources. In this paper, I examine the sensitivity...
ET from Shallow Groundwater Maintained by Controlled-Drainage/Subirrigation System
Soil-water management by maintaining a shallow groundwater level (watertable) via a dual purpose subdrainage-subirrigation system, is becoming popular in humid regions of the United States...

Waste Water Management at Bulk Terminals
As North American environmental regulations become more demanding, the amount of contaminants permitted in waste water discharge is reaching lower levels than can be achieved by conventional...
Technology?Key to Environmental Success
A three million ton per year coal unloading terminal with 5 km overland conveyor at Jacksonville, Florida, incorporates numerous technical advances to achieve environmentally safe construction...
Soil Contamination Issues at Port Marine Terminals
A preliminary survey of hydrocarbon contaminated soil and groundwater problems in U.S. west coast ports indicates that the problem occurs in most major port areas. Using the Port of Los...
Clean-Up of Contaminated Soils: A Necessary First Step in Industrial Land Redevelopment
This is a paper describing efforts by The Toronto Harbour Commissioners to demonstrate how several technologies can be effectively integrated to remove or reduce contaminant levels in...
Dredging Contaminated Sediments: A Monitoring Plan for Boston Harbor
Dredging and blasting will be conducted in Boston's Inner Harbor over approximately a one-year period during construction of the Third Harbor Tunnel. The silty organic surface sediments...
Analysis of Dredged Material Deposition Patterns
Between November 1, 1989 and 30 March, 1990, nearly 1 million cubic yards of dredged material were disposed in Puget Sound as the first phase (Element I) of the construction of the Navy's...
Bulk Commodity Terminals?Planning for the Future Competitive and Environmental Challenges
The demand upon all industries for better protection of the environment is increasing and the regulations and permit requirements are changing rapidly. Bulk commodity terminal operators...
Global Warming and Possible Effects on the Central and Southern Florida Project
The possible impacts of global warming on the operation and management of the Central and Southern Florida Project are examined. The potential impacts include sea level rise, tropical...
Global Climate Change Effects on Water Quality
The annual thermal energy cycle of Shasta Reservoir in California is simulated under scenarios of climate corresponding to present conditions and as predicted by global climate models...
Perceptions, Sensitivity, and Solutions; Water Quality 2000
Commencing early in 1971, the Water Pollution Control Federation (WPCF) (now Water Environment Federation) established a series of challenge groups which would develop information essential...
Spatial Decision Support System for Toxic Spill Modeling in the Ohio River
Spatial decision support systems (SDSS) are hardware-software systems that incorporate spatial analysis and modeling in a workstation environment. The Ohio River Valley Water Sanitation...
Scheduling of Ground Water Pumpage in Alluvial Aquifers to Minimize the Impact on Surface Water Diversions
The purpose of this paper is to present a methodology to administer the withdrawal of ground water from a basin where stream-aquifer systems are hydraulically connected. The administrative...
