Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEMPIRICAL DETERMINATION OF THE AVERAGE ANNUAL RUNOFF COEFFICIENT IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREAGiovanni Grillone, Giorgio Baiamonte, Francesco D’AsaroRunoff estimation in ungauged basin is a challenge for the hydrological engineers and planners. For any hydrological study on an ungauged basin, a methodology has to be appropriately selected for the determination of runoff at its outlet. Several methods have been used to estimate the basin runoff production. In this study the empirical Kennessey method to determine average annual runoff … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 5 Dec 2013 · 8,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining Potential Sites for Runoff Water Harvesting using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems-Based Modeling in SinaiHossam H. Elewa, Atef A. Qaddah, Ayman A. El-FeelProblem statement: Sinai is increasingly suffering from an overwhelming water crisis. Runoff Water Harvesting (RWH) could be a solution for this problem. The determined promising drainage basins for RWH could be used by the decision makers to propose appropriate controlling systems to overcome the problem of water scarcity and for implementing runoff farming and rain-fed agriculture. Approach: Remote sensing, geographic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2012 · 8,483 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of MIKE 11 Model Simulated Data for Biochemical and Chemical Oxygen Demands TransportMahdieh Eisakhani, Md. Pauzi Abdullah, Othman Abd Karim, Amirhossein MalakahmadProblem statement: The aim of the study was to model the discharge, biochemical and chemical oxygen demands (BOD and COD) loads in each cross section of Bertam River in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia. Cameron Highlands form the headwater catchment for two major rivers of the lowlands; Pahang River and Perak River. On the other hand, Cameron Highlands is undergoing rapid development … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 27 Jan 2012 · 7,686 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Deforestation on the Runoff-Peak by KINFIL ModelAlireza Mardookhpour, Leila OoshaksaraieProblem statement: In present study the KINFIL model was used for the catchment management, including the investigation of deforestation on predict flood runoff assessment with a significant precision. Approach: The KINFIL rainfall-runoff model has been used for the reconstruction of the rainfall runoff events in agricultural land use. The implementation of the KINFIL model supported by GIS proved to be … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 24 Dec 2011 · 6,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling the Distribution of Rainfall Intensity using Hourly DataSalisu Dan'azumi, Supiah Shamsudin, Azmi ArisProblem statement: Design of storm water best management practices to control runoff and water pollution can be achieved if a prior knowledge of the distribution of rainfall characteristics is known. Rainfall intensity, particularly in tropical climate, plays a major role in the design of runoff conveyance and erosion control systems. This study is aimed to explore the statistical distribution of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdjustment of Peak Streamflows of a Tropical River for UrbanizationAta Amini, Thamer Mohammad Ali, Abdul Halim B Ghazali, Bujang Kim HuatPeak runoff from a catchment is influenced by many factors such as intensity and duration of rainfall, catchment topography, catchment shape, land use and other variables. For a particular catchment, landuse change and other human activities will alter the characteristic of catchment hydrograph. Problem statement: As a result of urbanization, the magnitude of floods occurring in a catchment increased. It … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExponential Smoothing Method of Base Flow Separation and Its Impact on Continuous Loss EstimatesGurudeo Anand Tularam, Mahbub IlaheeThe calculation of loss is vital for design flood estimation models and in order to estimate continuing loss (CL), proportional loss (PL) and volumetric runoff coefficient, the surface runoff has to be separated from the total given in a stream flow hydrograph. To obtain the volume of surface runoff from the streamflow hydrograph, baseflow separation becomes necessary and in this … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 8,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Covers and Rainfall on Soil and Water Conservation Using a Tilting Flume ModelS. Compliew, L. Suwanchai, N. KrongwiengThe effect of stone and vegetative covers was evaluated for soil and water conservation in a waterway on salty soils in the Northeast of Thailand. Experiments were conducted on a hydraulic tilting flume under simulated unit flow (120 and 45 cm2s-1), rainfall (120 mm/hr) and slope (0, 1.2,1.4,1.6,1.8,2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0%) conditions. The depth of soil was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,629 accessesView PDFCite
