OpenKey: Illinois-North Carolina Collaborative Environment for Botanical Resources

The Illinois North Carolina Collaborative Environment for Botanical Resources seeks to revolutionize access to botanical resources by incorporating the methods botanists use to identify plant species and by simplifying and visualizing the process of identification. This project is supported by a partnership between the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC) and the University of Nort...

Water resources of India

Water resources of a country constitute one of its vital assets. India receives annual precipitation of about 4000 km. The rainfall in India shows very high spatial and temporal variability and paradox of the situation is that Mousinram near Cherrapunji, which receives the highest rainfall in the world, also suffers from a shortage of water during the non-rainy season, almost every year. The to...

Analysis Fraction Flow of Water versus Cumulative Oil Recoveries Using Buckley Leverett Method

To derive the fractional flow equation oil displacement will be assumed to take place under the so-called diffusive flow condition. The constraints are that fluid saturations at any point in the linear displacement path are uniformly distributed with respect to thickness; this allows the displacement to be described mathematically in one dimension. The simultaneous flow of oil and water can be ...

Water Resources Bulletin

During waning flood flows in gravel-bed streams, finegrained bedload sediment (sand and fine gravel) is commonly winnowed from zones of high shear stress, such as riffles, and deposited in pools, where it mantles an underlying coarse layer. As sediment load increases, more fine sediment becomes available to fill pools. The volume of fine sediment in pools can be measured by probing with a metal...
