Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsApplication of Rainfall-runoff Models to Zard River Catchment'sM. B. Rahnama, G. A. BaraniRainfall-runoff models are nonlinear processes according to the sequential and spatial distribution of the rainfall. So, it is difficult to explain the response of catchments systems with the simple models. In the present work simulation of the rainfall-runoff processes have been carried out by the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and the HEC-HMS models. The ANN models of Multi Layer Perceptron … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,528 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStorm Runoff Estimation Using an Object Oriented Approach Based on the Concepts of System DynamicsMaryam Ghashghaie, Saeid Eslamian, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Ali Hasantabar AmiriDeveloping nations are imposing the increasing impacts on their bio-resources due in part to their rising population, need to high economic growth and the incorporation of non-native technologies. Usually, watersheds are the major units, which are influenced leading to un-sustainability, specifically from the view point of water resources and hydrologic systems. Relying on a linear causal thinking, most of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2018 · 7,687 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Analysis and Modeling the Nitrogen Flush after Rainfall Events at the Field Scale in SWATElizabeth Brooke Haney, Richard Lee Haney, Jeffrey George Arnold et al.Current nitrogen (N) models tend to neglect the contribution of the microbial population to the plant available N pool, resulting in an underestimation of yield and possible over or underestimation of N runoff from natural and agricultural landscapes. We used the measurement of microbial activity coupled with the measurement of their food source, water extractable nitrogen (N) and carbon (C), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2016 · 7,228 accessesView PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite
