ANN and Fuzzy Logic Models for Simulating Event-Based Rainfall-Runoff
(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 ... -
Assessing effects of highway bridge deck runoff on near-by recieving waters in coastal margins using remote monitoring techniques
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Most of the pollution found in highway runoff is both directly and indirectly contributed by vehicles such as cars and trucks. The constituents that contribute the majority of the pollution, such as metals, chemical ... -
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 ... -
Effects of Biochar Recycling on Switchgrass Growth and Soil and Water Quality in Bioenergy Production Systems
(2012-07-16)Intensive biomass production in emerging bioenergy systems could increase nonpoint-source sediment and nutrient losses and impair surface and groundwater quality. Recycling biochar, a charcoal byproduct from pyrolysis of ... -
Investigating Rainwater Harvesting as a Stormwater Best Management Practice and as a Function of Irrigation Water Use
(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). ... -
Simulating and Optimizing Storm Water Management Strategies in an Urban Watershed
(2011-02-22)Land development transforms the natural landscape and impacts in stream ecosystems and downstream communities as it alters the natural flow regime. An increase in impervious areas results in higher volumes of storm water ... -
The Impacts on Double Cropping in a Winter Wheat System on Soil Health and Crop Yields
(2018-10-30)Double cropping can increase farm profit and food availability, and may improve soil function by sustaining year-round vegetation and building soil organic matter. However, replacing summer fallow with warm-season double ... -
Use of compost filter bermsfor sediment trapping: primary focus on water quality and structural stability
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Runoff from road construction and maintenance sites is responsible for erosion and deposition of sediments in the receiving water bodies. In addition to soil particles from erosion, runoff also transports other pollutants ...
