Fuzzy Dynamic Wave Models For Flow Routing And Flow Control In Open Channels
(2011-01-10)The dynamic wave model (the complete form of the saint-Venant equations), as applied to flow routing in irrigation canals or flood routing in natural channels, is associated with parameter and model uncertainties. The ... -
Fuzzy State Reservoir Operation Models For Irrigation
(2017-05-04)Efficient management of limited water resources in an irrigation reservoir system is necessary to increase crop productivity. To achieve this, a reservoir release policy should be integrated with an optimal crop water ... -
Grey Optimization For Uncertainty Modeling In Water Resources Systems
(2009-07-08)In this study, methodologies for modeling grey uncertainty in water resources systems are developed, specifically for the problems in two identified areas in water resources: waste load allocation in streams and floodplain ... -
Hydrologic Impacts of Climate Change : Detection and Attribution
Detecting, quantifying, and modelling the effects of human-induced climate change in regional hydrology is important for studying the impacts of such changes on the water resources systems as well as for reliable future ... -
Hydrologic Impacts Of Climate Change : Uncertainty Modeling
(2009-07-02)General Circulation Models (GCMs) are tools designed to simulate time series of climate variables globally, accounting for effects of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. They attempt to represent the physical processes in ... -
Hydrologic Impacts Of Clmate Change : Quantification Of Uncertainties
(2011-02-10)General Circulation Models (GCMs), which are mathematical models based on principles of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics and radiative transfer, are the most reliable tools available for projecting climate change. However, ... -
Hydrologic Inference: A Complex Systems Approach
The aim of this thesis is to understand linkages between hydrologic processes and patterns from the perspective of a complex system. In hydrologic systems, there exist interactions of hydrologic components among themselves ... -
Hydrologic Response of Upper Ganga Basin to Changing Land Use and Climate
(2018-04-17)Numerous studies indicate that the hydrology of a river basin is influenced by Land Use Land Cover (LULC) and climate. LULC affects the quality and quantity of water resources through its influence on Evapotranspiration ... -
Impacts of Climate Change on IDF Relationships for Design of Urban Stormwater Systems
(2018-01-29)Increasing global mean temperature or global warming has the potential to affect the hydrologic cycle. In the 21st century, according to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), alterations in the frequency ... -
Modeling the Dependence Structure of Hydroclimatic Extremes
Analysis of extremes in a complex interacting hydroclimatic system is challenging due to rarity of events, small sample size, poor state of data or missing data, lack of statistical tools for analyzing observed changes and ... -
Quantification of Uncertainties in Urban Precipitation Extremes
(2018-05-25)Urbanisation alters the hydrologic response of a catchment, resulting in increased runoff rates and volumes, and loss of infiltration and base flow. Quantification of uncertainties is important in hydrologic designs of ... -
Regional Hydrologic Impacts Of Climate Change
(2016-06-27)Climate change could aggravate periodic and chronic shortfalls of water, particularly in arid and semi-arid areas of the world (IPCC, 2001). Climate change is likely to accelerate the global hydrological cycle, with increase ... -
Simulation and Characterization of Streamflow Time Series
Streamflow can be partitioned into distinct time scales to better understand the underlying governing processes: fast flow, representing surface runoff controlled mainly by meteorological processes that operate over ... -
Uncertainty Modeling For River Water Quality Control
(2010-08-30)Waste Load Allocation (WLA) in rivers refers to the determination of required pollutant fractional removal levels at a set of point sources of pollution to ensure that water quality standards are maintained throughout the ... -
Understanding Catchment Scale Processes: Hydrological Modelling and Information-Theoretic Approaches
Catchments are complex environmental systems, and they serve as the fundamental units for hydrological classification. They are self-organizing systems whose form, drainage network, ground and channel slopes, channel ...
