Knowledge of design peak flow is crucial in various applications related to hydrology, hydraulics and water resources management. However, obtaining challenging especially ungauged basins lacking discharge observations, a circumstance that does not allow the calibration advanced hydrological models. Recently, new method called EBA4SUB (Event-Based Approach for Small Ungauged Basins) was introdu...

Effectiveness in controlling mosquitoes in storm water catch basins in the North Shore Mosquito Abatement District (northeastern Cook County, Illinois) was determined for 3 formulations of methoprene-based larvicides (Altosid XR 150-day Briquets, Altosid 30-day Pellets, Altosid 30-day Granules) in 2017 using a pass/fail evaluation criterion, in which emergence of a single adult from pupae colle...

The influence of climate change and anthropogenic activities (e.g., water withdrawals) on groundwater basins has gained attention recently across the globe. However, understanding hydrological stores storage) in one largest deepest artesian basins, Great Artesian Basin (GAB) is limited due to poor distribution monitoring bores. In this study, Gravity Recovery Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellit...

Providing Regional Models for Maximum Daily Discharges of Iran’s Western Sub-Basins Using Generalized Linear (GLMs)

The North Shore Mosquito Abatement District applies extended release larvicides including methoprene-based AltosidH XR Extended Residual Briquets to approximately 40,000 catch basins in the southern half of the District’s operational area at the beginning of each season. Treatments begin in May and typically again 9 to 10 wk later when larvicide efficacy appears to wane. In 2013 spinosad-based ...

in the past, mining activities have generated major acid drainage sources, which usually carry dissolved metals that flow into the main rivers of the affected basins. the study looks at natural attenuation processes in local, sub-basin and basin areas, in the el bierzo and odiel basins of spain, where coal and metal mining activities were formerly conducted. in this study, sampling and in situ ...

The term “plea bargaining”has become a label often used to describe a series of disparate mechanisms to investigate,prosecute,and adjudicate criminal liability. For some,plea bargaining is the indispensable tool to address criminal conduct,while for others it has become a symbol of coercion and injustice. The purpose of this Article will be to distinguish the very different mechanisms that are ...
