Hydrologic and Geochemical Approaches for Determining Ground-Water Flow Components
Lyman Lake is an irrigation-storage reservoir on the Little Colorado River near St. Johns, Arizona. The main sources of water for the lake are streamflow in the Little Colorado River and...
Interaction of Irrigation Water and Drainage Flow
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of irrigation management on subsurface drainage flow in an arid irrigated area. The irrigation management and drainage flow were monitored...
Unique Problems in Modeling Irrigation Canals
Irrigation-canal modeling is based on the same unsteady flow equations used for river modeling. However the canal and irrigation environment present several unique simulation problems...
Informed Use and Potential Pitfalls of Canal Models
Numerical models of unsteady flow in canals are used in the design, analysis and operation of irrigation canal systems. Their informed use requires knowledge of the potential pitfalls,...

A Coupled Surface-Water and Ground-Water Model
In areas with dynamic and hydraulically well connected ground-water and surface-water systems, it is desirable that stream-aquifer interaction be simulated with models of equal sophistication...
A New Method for Calculating a Mathematical Expression for Streamflow Recession
An empirical method has been devised to calculate the master recession curve, which is a mathematical expression for streamflow recession during times of negligible direct runoff. The...
Time Scales for Surface-Subsurface Flow Modeling
Traditionally, interactive free surface flow and subsurface flow are analyzed separately, using infiltration rate described by an infiltration formula as the common boundary condition....
