(2006-12-01)This study presents the development of artificial neural network _ANN_ and fuzzy logic _FL_ models for predicting event-based rainfall runoff and tests these models against the kinematic wave approximation _KWA_. A three-layer ...
-
(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 ...
-
(2018-06-13)As resolution of observations and climate models continues to improve, it has become increasingly evident that mesoscale eddies – a ubiquitous feature of the world ocean – can interact with the overlying atmosphere, ...
-
(American Meteorological Society, 2021-03)Afternoon deep convection over the Maritime Continent islands propagates offshore in the evening to early morning hours, leading to a nocturnal rainfall maximum over the nearby ocean. This work investigates the formation ...

(2012-02-14)Stormwater runoff has negative impacts on water resources, human health and environment. In this research the effectiveness of Rain Water Harvesting (RWH) systems is examined as a stormwater Best Management Practice (BMP). ...

A Multi-Decadal Precipitation Evaluation for Namibia Using Satellite, Model, and Ground-Based Data (2019-06-18)Precipitation in southern Africa exhibits high variability with rain often falling in an intense deluge or not at all. Considerable research has gone into understanding what drives precipitation in southern Africa and how ...

(2012-02-14)Theory and experiment show that the rate and geographic distribution of erosion control the rate and pattern of deformation in collisional mountain belts. Enhanced erosion reduces the mass of material that must be moved ...
-
(2011-02-22)The purpose of this dissertation is to enhance the applicability and the accuracy of the Poisson cluster stochastic rainfall generators. Firstly, the 6 parameters of the Modified Bartlett-Lewis Rectangular Pulse (MBLRP) ...
