Entropy theory-based criterion for hydrometric network evaluation and design: Maximum information minimum redundancy
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)
Hydrometric information constitutes the fundamental input for planning, design, operation, and management of water resources systems. How to optimally site monitoring gauges such that they are effective and efficient in ...
Entropy-copula method for single-site monthly streamflow simulation
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)
An entropy-copula method is proposed for single-site monthly streamflow simulation. In this method, the joint distribution of adjacent monthly streamflows is constructed using the copula method, whereas the marginal ...
Bivariate Rainfall and Runoff Analysis Using Entropy and Copula Theories
(2012-09-24)
Multivariate hydrologic frequency analysis has been widely studied using: (1) commonly known joint distributions or copula functions with the assumption of univariate variables being independently identically distributed ...
Water requirements and single and dual crop coefficients of sugarcane grown in a tropical region, Brazil
(2012)
A field experiment was conducted throughout 2009/2010 in a sugarcane field of a commercial distillery located on the coastal area of Paraiba state, Brazil. The objectives were to determine sugarcane water requirements and ...
Derivation of Furrow Geometry Using Entropy Theory
(American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, 2012)
The instantaneous unit hydrograph (IUH) is a commonly used method for computing surface runoff hydrographs from small watersheds. Assuming travel time as a random variable, a general equation for IUH is derived using the ...
Listening to Our Students: Enhancing Library Instruction Through a Qualitative Assessment of Student Feedback
(ISAST, 2012-07)
In our ongoing effort to foster a culture of customer service
excellence, Texas A&M University Libraries uses LibQUAL+ to conduct
annual reviews of service quality as measured by those who matter most; our
patrons. This ...

Entropy-Copula Method for Single-Site Monthly Streamflow Simulation
(American Geophysical Union, 2012-06-13)
An entropy-copula method is proposed for single-site monthly streamflow simulation.
In this method, the joint distribution of adjacent monthly streamflows is constructed using the copula method, whereas the marginal ...
Simulation of the entire range of daily precipitation using a hybrid probability distribution
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)
Underestimation of extreme values is a widely acknowledged issue in daily precipitation simulation. Nonparametric precipitation generators have inherent limitations in representing extremes. Parametric generators can ...
