TOTAL WATER LEVEL MODELING IN THE NORTH CAROLINA COASTAL PLAIN: COMPARING ADCIRC AND HEC-RAS
(2017-12-15)
The purpose of this Master’s thesis was to develop and compare an ADCIRC and ADCIRC/HEC-RAS paired model for the purpose of total water level forecasting using the Tar River and Pamlico Sound area as a test case. ADCIRC ...
Characterization and Prediction of Flash Flood Severity
(2017-05)
Flash floods, a subset of floods, are a particularly damaging natural hazard worldwide due to their multidisciplinary nature, difficulty in forecasting, and fast response that limits emergency responses. The purpose of ...
Making Satellite Sensors Better for Hydroclimatic Applications: Evaluation of NASA SMAP Soil Moisture Using Oklahoma’s Environmental Monitoring Network—MESONET
(2017-12-15)
Soil moisture, quantified as the ratio of liquid water to soil in volume or weight, is the measurement of the water that is held in the space between soil particles. Understanding the components of soil, particularly its ...
Determination of leakage from subsurface containment systems using informational entropy and hydraulic signature assessment methods.
(1998)
The use of physical and hydraulic containment systems for the isolation of contaminated ground water and aquifer materials associated with hazardous waste sites has increased during the last decade. The existing methodologies ...
Forecasting the volume of storm runoff using meteorological parameters /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1970)
Computer design of onsite residential lagoons from demographic, hydraulic and hydrologic variables /
(1985)
An investigative field study of onsite residential lagoon systems was conducted to identify important demographic, hydraulic and hydrologic variables affecting components of lagoon water balances. The goal was development ...
Impacts of heterogeneous sedimentary organic matter on phenanthrene sorption and fate processes.
(1999)
Natural attenuation is currently one of the most important topics in groundwater management. Sorption and biodegradation are key processes impacting the efficiency of natural attenuation. Although extensive literature has ...
The Hydrologic Responses of Semiarid Watersheds to the Cultivation of Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)
(2013-12)
Due in part to the very recent influx of federal and state policies promoting the development of ethanol as a gasoline additive, switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) has received much attention. Nevertheless, investigations ...
Probabilistic Characterization of Floods from Catchment-Scale Precipitation Moments
(2019)
Floods are one of the most devastating natural hazards across the world, accounting for roughly one third of all global geophysical hazards. The ability to predict and characterize floods is increasingly important, and in ...
Decadal development of CREST hydrological model family: review, improvements, applications, and outlook
(2022-08)
A hydrological model is an indispensable tool in Earth system science and engineering operations to understand, predict, and manage water resources on Earth. The Coupled Routing and Excess Storage (CREST) model, released ...
