Both numerical and analytical models of coupled atmosphere and its underlying ground components (land, ocean, ice) are useful tools for modeling the global and regional water cycle. Unlike complex three-dimensional climate models, which need very large computing resources and involve a large number of complicated interactions often difficult to interpret, analytical models are able to provide m...

nowadays, economic load dispatch between generation units with least cost involved is one of the most important issues in utilizing power systems. in this paper, a new method i.e. water cycle algorithm (wca) which is similar to other intelligent algorithm and is based on swarm, is employed in order to solve the economic load dispatch problem between power plants. in order to investigate the eff...

This paper addresses the current imperative to develop and test urban ET algorithms, incorporate these into urban water balance models, and develop these into tools to underpin and guide Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) and integrated urban water management. Two approaches to modelling the urban water balance focusing specifically on urban evapotranspiration are presented: i) SUES (Single-so...

Due to the importance of power generation cycles including combined cycle, many studies have been done in recent years and many researchers have been tried to optimize these cycles by using of existing methods. In this study, the Water-Ammonia cycle is investigated in the combined-cycle of the Water-Ammonia, working dual Water-Ammonia mixture is used as the works fluid. This cycle can be used f...

abstarct precise knowledge of all components of water balance is essential to optimize water use in irrigated agriculture. however, water balance components are difficult to measure in required time intervals because their measuring is time consuming and costly. unsaturated zone simulator models are useful tools for predicting the effects of agricultural management on crop water use and can be ...

to study the impact of iron nanoparticles foliar application on mitigating the effects of drought stress on yield, yield components and  oil percentage of goldasht spring safflower cultivar, an experiment was carried out in 2012 in the agricultural research farm station of islamic azad university, roudehen branch as split plot in a completely randomized blocks design with three replications. in...

A distributed model for simulating the land surface hydrological processes in the Heihe river basin was developed and validated on the basis of considering the physical mechanism of hydrological cycle and the artificial system of water utilization in the basin. Modeling approach of every component process was introduced from 2 aspects, i.e., water cycle and energy cycle. The hydrological proces...
