A kinematic model for surface irrigation: An extension
(American Geophysical Union, 1982-06)
The kinematic model for surface irrigation, reported previously by Sherman and Singh (1978), is extended. Depending upon the duration of irrigation and time variability of infiltration, three cases are distinguished. ...
Solute transport under steady and transient conditions in biodegraded municipal solid waste
(American Geophysical Union, 1999-08)
The transport of a conservative tracer (lithium) in a large (3.5 m3) undisturbed municipal solid waste sample has been investigated under steady and fully transient conditions using a simple model. The model comprises a ...
A kinematic model for surface irrigation: Verification by experimental data
(American Geophysical Union, 1983-12)
A kinematic model for surface irrigation is verified by experimental data obtained for 31 borders. These borders are of varied characteristics. Calculated values of advance times, water surface profiles when water reaches ...
Kinematic wave model for water movement in municipal solid waste
(American Geophysical Union, 1998-11)
The movement of water in a large (3.5 m3) undisturbed sample of 22-year-old municipal solid waste has been modeled using a kinematic wave approximation for unsaturated infiltration and internal drainage. The model employs ...
A distributed converging overland flow model: 2. Effect of infiltration
(American Geophysical Union, 1976-10)
The overland flow on an infiltrating converging surface is studied. Mathematical solutions are developed
to study the effect of infiltration on nonlinear overland flow dynamics. To develop mathematical
solutions, ...
An entropy-based morphological analysis of river basin networks
(American Geophysical Union, 1993-04)
Under the assumption that the only information available on a drainage basin is its mean elevation, the connection between entropy and potential energy is explored to analyze drainage basins morphological characteristics. ...
A distributed converging overland flow model: 1. Mathematical solutions
(American Geophysical Union, 1976-10)
In models for overland flow based on kinematic wave theory the friction parameter is assumed to be constant. This paper studies a converging geometry and allows continuous spatial variability in the parameter. Parameter ...
A distributed converging overland flow model: 3. Application to Natural Watersheds
(American Geophysical Union, 1976-10)
The proposed distributed converging overland flow model is utilized to predict surface runoff from three natural agricultural watersheds. The Lax-Wendroff scheme is used to obtain numerical solutions. For determination of ...
