Evaluation of overland flow models using laboratory catchment data I. An apparatus for laboratory catchment studies
A laboratory catchment provides experimental control over hydrological variables which is notably absent in the monitoring of experimental and representative basins. In designing an apparatus for laboratory catchment studies, particular attention must be paid to the methods of simulating rainfall over, and of measuring discharge from, the artificial catchments. The former should reflect the imp...
متن کاملChannel Network Scaling Laws in Submarine Basins
Fluvial drainage basin area is often related to channel length and local slope through power law relationships and the relatively small range of exponents observed in these relationships is thought to result from physical mechanisms. Proposed mechanisms assume that the observed correlation between drainage area and fluid discharge is caused by precipitation. Using high resolution DEMs of channe...
متن کاملScaling Laws in Spatial Network Formation.
Geometric constraints impact the formation of a broad range of spatial networks, from amino acid chains folding to proteins structures to rearranging particle aggregates. How the network of interactions dynamically self-organizes in such systems is far from fully understood. Here, we analyze a class of spatial network formation processes by introducing a mapping from geometric to graph-theoreti...
متن کاملScaling limit for a drainage network model
We consider the two dimensional version of a drainage network model introduced by Gangopadhyay, Roy and Sarkar, and show that the appropriately rescaled family of its paths converges in distribution to the Brownian web. We do so by verifying the convergence criteria proposed by Fontes, Isopi, Newman and Ravishankar.
متن کاملScaling laws and intremittency in homogeneous shear flow
1 Abstract In this paper we discuss the dynamical features of intermittent fluctuations in homogeneous shear flow turbulence. In this flow the energy cascade is strongly modified by the production of turbulent kinetic energy related to the presence of vortical structures induced by the shear. By using direct numerical simulations, we show that the refined Kolmogorov similarity is broken and a n...
