This book was released on 1982 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approaches to lake water quality modeling are critically examined with particular attention to the formulation of water quality transport as the link between hydrodynamics and biogeochemical reaction. A linked water quality model for shallow lakes includes three major components: a biogeochemical reaction component, a lake hydrodynamics component and a water quality transport component. State-of-the-art modeling approaches for each component are reviewed, and a synopsis of phosphorus dynamics in shallow lakes is given. For the water quality transport component, review of the literature shows two significantly different approaches to water transport: a lumped component approach based upon multiple fully-mixed boxes, and a continuum approach employing the finite difference method to approximate the continuous governing equations. The multiple-box model is shown in an analysis of the kindred fully-mixed tanks-in-series conceptual reactor model to create an excessive implicit dispersion due to its formulation. This leads to a model in which the model mass transport is not closely related to the properties of the physical system. being modeled. Rather, dispersive transport in the model is shown to depend heavily upon the model formulation -- the model transport parameters thus cannot be specified from hydrodynamic data but must be found by calibration. In direct contrast, the finite difference model maintains a far closer approximation to the physical system and permits direct specification of water quality transport from the actual lake hydrodynamics. To support these arguments, a computer program incorporating both a multiple-box model and an alternative one-dimensional finite difference model is developed and applied to Lake Balaton in Hungary. The biogeochemical component of both models is a four component phosphorus-phytoplankton interaction model originally proposed by van Straten (1980). Hydrodynamic information is supplied to the one-dimensional finite difference model by linkage to a transient two-dimensional single-layer model of wind-driven circulation. A one-dimensional dispersion coefficient is computed from the two-dimensional velocity field using a method based upon that of Fischer (1966, 1969) and Holley, Harleman and Fischer (1970), but proceeding from the assumption that advection rather than turbulent diffusion dominates lateral mixing. The finite difference model developed for Lake Balaton consists of forty grids and is used to simulate a representative period from early spring to late summer. The results are contrasted with those produced by a four-box model of the lake using long-term average advection and calibrated dispersive exchange flows. The finite difference model is found to lead to a predicted behavior more similar to that observed in field data collected from Lake Balaton. Experimentation with the models is conducted to examine the behavior of the lake and the dominant factors leading to that behavior.
Download or read book The Water Quality Monitoring Program for the Baltimore Reservoir System 1981 2007 written by Michael T. Koterba and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The City of Baltimore, Maryland, and parts of five sur- rounding counties obtain their water from Loch Raven and Liberty Reservoirs. A third reservoir, Prettyboy, is used to resupply Loch Raven Reservoir. Management of the water- shed conditions for each reservoir is a shared responsibility by agreement among City, County, and State jurisdictions. The most recent (2005) Baltimore Reservoir Watershed Management Agreement (RWMA) called for continued and improved water-quality monitoring in the reservoirs and selected watershed tributaries. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a retrospective review of the effective- ness of monitoring data obtained and analyzed by the RWMA jurisdictions from 1981 through 2007 to help identify possible improvements in the monitoring program to address RWMA water-quality concerns.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a comprehensive presentation of our present understanding of the Earth's Hydrological cycle and the problems, consequences and impacts that go with this topic. Water is a central component in the Earth's system. It is indispensable for life on Earth in its present form and influences virtually every aspect of our planet's life support system. On relatively short time scales, atmospheric water vapor interacts with the atmospheric circulation and is crucial in forming the Earth's climate zones. Water vapor is the most powerful of the greenhouse gases and serves to enhance the tropospheric temperature. The dominant part of available water on Earth resides in the oceans. Parts are locked up in the land ice on Greenland and Antarctica and a smaller part is estimated to exist as groundwater. If all the ice over the land and all the glaciers were to melt, the sea level would rise by some 80 m. In comparison, the total amount of water vapor in the atmosphere is small; it amounts to ~ 25 kg/m2, or the equivalent of 25 mm water for each column of air. Yet atmospheric water vapor is crucial for the Earth’s energy balance. The book gives an up to date presentation of the present knowledge.

Book excerpt: This unique book brings together 27 chapters from some of the world's leading practitioners and experts on environmental water, communities, law, economics and governance. Its goal is to understand the many dimensions of water in the Murray-Darling Basin and provide guidance about how to implement a water management plan that addresses the needs of communities, the economy and the environment. The comprehensiveness of topics covered, the expertise of its authors, and the absolute need to take a multidisciplinary approach to resolving the "wicked problem" of governing our scarce water resource makes this volume a must read for all who care about Australian communities and the environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic monograph on unsteady transonic flow — the flow of air encountered at speeds at or near the speed of sound — is of continuing interest to students and professionals in aerodynamics, fluid dynamics, and other areas of applied mathematics. After a brief Introduction, Swedish physicist Mårten T. Landahl presents a chapter in which the two-dimensional solution is derived, succeeded by a discussion of its relation to the subsonic and supersonic solutions. Three chapters on low aspect ratio configurations follow, covering triangular wings and similar planforms with curved leading edges, rectangular wings, and cropped delta wings, and low aspect ratio wing-body combinations. The treatment concludes with a consideration of the experimental determination of air forces on oscillating wings at transonic speeds.
