Breaking the Deadlock: Improving Water-Release Policies on the Delaware River Through Operations Research
The Delaware River provides half of New York City’s drinking water, is a habitat for wild trout and American shad, and has suffered three major floods in the last five years. The water releases from three New York City dams on the Delaware River’s headwaters impact the reliability of the city’s water supply, the potential for floods, and the quality of the aquatic habitat. This project’s object...
متن کاملWater Supply Analysis for Restoring the Colorado River Delta, Mexico
This paper employs an economic-engineering optimization model to explore water supply options for environmental restoration of the Colorado River Delta, Mexico. Potential water sources include reductions in local agricultural and urban water use through water markets, wastewater reuse, and additional Colorado River flows from the United States. For these alternatives, the optimization model est...
متن کاملTrace Element Speciation and Behavior in the Tidal Delaware River
Measurements of dissolved As, Cr, Cu, and S~ using species-selective techniques were made in the tidal freshwater Delaware River at four sites in July 1991, January 1992, and March 1992. Concentrations of dissolved As, Cr, and Se were generally higher in July than in March or January. Copper concentrations were relatively constant. Both As and Cu increased in concentration in the region of Phil...
متن کاملNitrogen metabolism of the eutrophic Delaware River ecosystem1
A comprehensive investigation of the nitrogen cycle in the Delaware River was carried out using 15N tracers to measure rates for important transformations of nitrogen. Daily, depth-averaged 15N rates for the principal inorganic nitrogen species were consistent with rates derived from longitudinal profiles of concentration in the river. The data indicated that nitrification was a rapid, irrevers...
متن کاملErosion and Weathering Processes in the Delaware River Basin
Total suspended sediments and the total dissolved solids (TDS) from three river gaging stations, near Delaware Water Gap, Riegelsville and Trenton on the Delaware River measured by the USGS were used to estimate the physical erosion, chemical weathering and total denudation rates of the Delaware River Basin. The denudation rates are 28 and 128 tons/km 2 /yr for the upper stream and downstream s...
