Abstract. The effects of climate change are causing more frequent extreme rainfall events and an increased risk flooding in developed areas. Quantifying this is critical importance for the protection life property as well infrastructure planning design. updated National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Atlas 14 intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) relationships temporal patterns widely used hydrologic hydraulic modeling design United States. Current literature shows that rising...
Abstract Availability of water resources is significantly affected by changes in seasonal rainfall, with often short supply when most needed. The majority current research focuses on the impacts multiyear drought, using monthly or annual average rainfall to investigate resources. Here, we use daily evaluate dry spells lengths, defined as continuous number days without rain, and how these may impart stresses warmer summer seasons globally. We over 100 years precipitation temperature data...
It is now well established that our warming planet experiencing changes in extreme storms and floods, resulting a need to better specify hydrologic design guidelines can be projected into the future. This paper attempts summarize nature of occurring impact they are having on flood magnitude, with focus urban catchments we will increasingly reside as time goes on. Two lines reasoning used assess model hydrology. The first these involves using observed soil moisture conditions projecting how...
Field experiments were conducted to determine the oxygenation potential of gated sill structures in Ohio River Valley. The objective was operational procedures for water quality improvement. Oxygenation is typically characterized by gas transfer efficiency, with high efficiency indicating a greater input oxygen into water. Direct measurement can be unreliable determining and this due upstream stratification, relatively background concentrations, changes saturation concentration when bubbles...
Abstract. Warming temperatures are causing extreme rainfall to intensify resulting in increased risk of flooding developed areas. Quantifying this is critical importance for the protection life and property as well infrastructure planning design. The study presented manuscript uses a comprehensive hydrologic hydraulic model fully urban/suburban catchment explore two primary questions related climate change impacts on flood risk: (1) How does effects storm temporal patterns volumes impact...
The South Washington Watershed District (SWWD) initiated a study of the Wilmes Lake Subwatershed (Figure 1) to quantify flood risk and identify potential solutions minimize damage potential. was following completion 2002 minor plan amendment for SWWD Plan. technical work associated with preparing identified flooding in Subwatershed. purpose this report is provide information use SWWD's major currently being prepared by SWWD. base model used taken from previous done Minor Plan Amendment....
Urban flooding is an issue faced by many major cities around the country. Due to fully developed nature of older such as The City Minneapolis (City), Minnesota, finding solutions these problems not easy task. Flooding became a prominent topic discussion in 1997 during particularly wet month July. Consecutive severe rainstorms, first which was close 200-year rainfall event, caused widespread resulting significant economic impact city. Subsequently, report. Flood '97, using complaint reports...
The project discussed below is based around Lake Nokomis, located in the southern metropolitan area of Minneapolis within Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD), Minnesota. Nokomis and surrounding park are one more popular parks nationally renowned `Chain Lakes' system have a long history recreational activity. Similar to many lakes area, water quality lake has been degrading over years. This compromised its resource value. As an attempt improve lakes, MCWD planned completed improvement...
