Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing SWAT to Target Critical Source Sediment and Phosphorus Areas in the Wister Lake Basin, USAPhilip R. Busteed, Daniel E. Storm, Michael J. White, Scott H. StoodleyProblem statement: Wister Lake is located in the San Bois Mountains in southeastern Oklahoma, USA. The reservoir is primarily used as a water supply and flood storage to over 40,000 residents in the area. Due to high levels of phosphorus and sediment, Wister Lake is listed as a high priority basin for the State of Oklahoma. To help address these … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Simulated Annealing For Optimal Operation of Multi-Reservoir SystemsF. Khodabakhshi, A. R. Ghirian, N. KhakzadThe need to optimize the operation of water reservoirs is an issue that is becoming increasingly a concern for water resources planners in developing countries. This issue particularly becomes more significant in large systems with multiple reservoirs where operation of one reservoir has an impact on the others. In other word, the set of reservoirs in these systems act like … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeuristic Algorithm with Simulation Model for Searching Optimal Reservoir Rule CurvesAnongrit Kangrang, Sudarat Compliew, Witsanukorn ChaiyapoomThis study proposes a heuristic algorithm to connect with simulation model for searching the optimal reservoir rule curves. The proposed model was applied to determine the optimal rule curves of the Ubolratana reservoir (the Chi River Basin, Thailand). The results showed that the pattern of the obtained rule curves similar to the existing rule curve. Then the obtained rule curves … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlteration of the Aquifer Water in Hyperarid Climate, by Wastewater: Cases of Groundwater from Ouargla (Northern Sahara, Algeria)Djidel Mohamed, Bousnoubra-Kherici Houria, Kherici Nacer, Nezli Imed-EddineThe present study is registered, on the area of Ouargla (the Sahara septentrional, Algeria) reports of the aquifer contamination by the anarchistic urban rejections. By its geomorphology (basin), its hyperarid climate and the presence of chotts, the area is subjected to an important degree of vulnerability, encouraged by the discharges of wastewater (domestic and irrigation). These factors expose aquifer's water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model With Multiquadtree MeshesGregorio Posada Vanegas, Rodolfo Silva Casarín, Sébastien de BryeThis study presents a three dimensional model for the transport of conservative contaminants, which can be used for bodies of water which are affected by winds and/or tides. The model solves the equation of mass transport, based on results obtained using a hydrodynamic model for shallow waters that works in a finite volume scheme and a type of hierarchical grid, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic Inflow Simulation for Searching Rule CurvesAnongrit Kangrang, Anujit Phumphan, Witsanukorn ChaiyapoomRule curves are basic monthly guidelines for long term reservoir operation. Generally, the optimal rule curves are searched by reservoir simulation model and optimization techniques. A traditional reservoir simulation does not consider the risk of reservoir operation caused by natural uncertainty from inflow. A stochastic simulation model embedded genetic algorithm model is developed for searching the optimal rule curves in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,303 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Provenance of the Varzaneh Aeolian Sand Field Regarding to Lithology and Texture, SW Esfahan, IranH. Pakzad, R. AjalloeianThe main mineralogical/lithological composition of the Varzaneh aeolian sands is sedimentary and igneous lithics. The minor one is metamorphic lithics and mineral grains (such as quartz, feldspar and heavy mineral grains) respectively. The origin of the sedimentary lithics (mainly carbonates) mostly is from sedimentary rocks exposed in the west and the southwest of the study area. These rocks belong to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 7,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Algorithms Connected Simulation with Smoothing Function for Searching Rule CurvesAnongrit Kangrang, Chavalit ChaleeraktrakoonRule curves are fundamental guidelines for operating a reservoir system. The objective of this paper is to find a suitable objective function and to propose a smoothing function constraint for searching the optimal rule curves by using genetic algorithms connected simulation model. The results show that an average water shortage is the optimal objective function for searching the optimal rule … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,482 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring Water Quality Parameters of the Transboundry River NestosPsilovikos Aris, Margoni Sophia, Psilovikos AntoniosThe Nestos/Mesta river, shared by Greece and Bulgaria, needs monitoring system along its course for sustainable management and environmental preservation. Such a system, known as R.E.MO.S., was installed in the year 2000 and operates since then on a 24 h basis at a station in the river deltas channel. It records water level, water and air temperature, conductivity, redox potential … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,181 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Risk Factors of Bovine Fascioliasis in Northeastern PeruClavel Diaz-Quevedo, Hugo Frias et al.Bovine fascioliasis in Peru is highly prevalent in almost all regions; however, there are few studies about its prevalence in the region of Amazonas. This research aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with fascioliasis from four livestock basins in the Amazonas region. A total of 941 bovine feces samples were analyzed and a prevalence of 52% was … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 25 Jul 2023 · 5,685 accessesView PDFCite
