Numerical assement and evaluation of a stream monidification strategy to address sediment aggradation issues at Dean Road bridge in Dale County, Alabama 

Song, Wenjun (2019-01-07)
Severe aggradation in bridge structures is a serious issue since it may lead to overtopping episodes during peak flows or increased risk of serious structural damage. Aggradation processes may be caused by changes in ...

Pore Scale Methods to Enhance Understanding of Geochemical Reaction Rates in Porous Media 

Anjikar, Ishan (2019-07-23)
Geochemical reactions play an important role in subsurface systems such as in contaminant fate and transport, chemical weathering and geologic carbon sequestration. These reactions, mainly dissolution/precipitation, will ...

Quantifying Flow and Sediment Yield of an Ungauged Catchment using a Combination of Continuous Soil Moisture Accounting and Event-based Curve Number Method 

Tamang, Sagar (2017-08-17)
A serious aggradation problem has been identified in the Soapstone branch, a tributary to Little Choctawhatchee River. A study of historical aerial imageries shows deforestation of the catchment by a significant amount in ...

Simulations of watershed response to land use and climate change in the Saugahatchee Creek Watershed using the WARMF model 

Shrestha, Sushban (2011-07-28)
During recent years, land surfaces have been markedly transformed with artificial land cover limiting natural forests, accompanied by urbanization. The atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases is believed to be ...

Understanding Unsteady Flow Dynamics, Temperature, and Dye Distributions of Density Currents in a River-Reservoir System under Different Upstream Releases and Meteorological Scenarios 

Chen, Gang (2016-05-05)
Three dimensional hydrodynamic Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code (EFDC) model was applied to simulate flow, temperature and dye distributions in the river-reservoir system. The study is in a river-reservoir system (124.2 ...

Water Balance Analysis Using WARMF in Support of an EFDC Hydrodynamic Model 

Weems, Thomas (2013-07-11)
An Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code (EFDC) model was previously developed for Bankhead Reservoir, located in northwest Alabama. The EFDC model inaccurately predicted water surface elevations in the reservoir, due to sources ...
