Increasing frequency and severity of flooding demands identification of flood hazard zones in Kalilangan, Bukidnon in response to the echoing need of better disaster preparedness via enhancing the understanding and awareness of the public on flood characteristics by integrating the use of two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing. Flood simulation was carried out in a two-dimensi...

This paper presents results of spatial and temporal analyses of hydro-climatic regimes and simulation of climate-induced hydrologic changes in the Lake Winnipeg watershed. The hydrologic and agricultural chemical yield model, Soil & Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), was employed for the simulation of hydrologic scenarios in the Upper Assiniboine catchment of the Lake Winnipeg watershed, Canada. Ana...

A basic problem relating to the long-term water balance involves splitting precipitation P, into runoff R, and actual evapotranspiration E. Berger and Entekhabi (2001) showed that the evapotranspiration efficiency E/Ep (Ep denotes potential evapotranspiration) and the runoff ratio R/P, are related to physiographic basin features and regional climate information. Berger and Entekhabi (2001) esti...

The technology used in landfill covers is changing, and an alternative cover called the evapotranspiration (ET) landfill cover is coming into use. Important design requirements are prescribed by Federal rules and regulations for conventional landfill covers but not for ET landfill covers. There is no accepted hydrologic model for ET landfill cover design. This paper describes ET cover requireme...

Hydrologic response in natural catchments is controlled by a set of complex interactions between storm properties, basin characteristics and antecedent wetness conditions. This study investigates the transient runoff response to spatially-uniform storms of varying properties using a distributed model of the coupled surface-subsurface sys5 tem, which treats heterogeneities in topography, soils a...

Rational decision making (for flood warning, navigation, or reservoir systems) requires that the total uncertainty about a hydrologic predictand (such as river stage, discharge, or runoff volume) be quantified in terms of a probability distribution, conditional on all available information and knowledge. Hydrologic knowledge is typically embodied in a deterministic catchment model. Fundamentals...
