abstract the aim of this study, is to evaluate the effect of loss methods application on run-off volume and hydrograph shape used by hydrologic models. in this research, four loss methods including constant loss (φ index), initial loss-loss rate, scs and constant fraction approach were applied to be evaluated. to do this, clark rainfall-runoff model was applied for 24 storm events from kasilain...

dashte-mashhad reservoir provides the water supply needed for irrigating 120 acres of agricultural lands and also the soft water for people living in mashhad, chenaran, golbahar and a number of villages in the region. the deep wells of the region have been using the water stored in this reservoir since 1350 in a rate which exceeds that of water being imported to it, hence the decrement of the w...

Local scouring around the bridges piers has always been considered as a problem, especially in rivers. If we do not take the necessary actions to avoid the occurrence of this phenomenon or to reduce its influence, then the bridge's piers will be destroyed. Placing the bridge piers' foundation far from the earth's surface will turn out in a plan which is not economic at all. Experimental studies...

The Santa Tecla flash flood, a very heavy event occurred in western Catalonia (NE Spain) in 1874, was reconstructed with hydraulic and hydrological modelling tools in three basins. The hydrograph obtained in a first step and the basin soil moisture information ultimately allowed the estimation of the range of the rainstorm magnitude which caused the flash flood. The reconstruction of historical...

Human intervention makes river channels adjust their slope and bed surface grain size as they transition to a new equilibrium state in response engineering measures. Climate change alters the controls through hydrograph changes sea level rise. We assess how channel climate compares human over this century (2000–2100), focusing on 300-km reach of Rhine River. set up schematized numerical model r...
