Title of Document: THE HYDROLOGIC AND WATER QUALITY PERFORMANCE OF THE SLIGO-DENNIS BIORETENTION CELL. Jennifer M. Olszewski, Master of Science, 2010 Directed By: Professor Allen P. Davis Civil and Environmental Engineering Bioretention cells have been found to improve the hydrologic and water quality performance of impervious areas such as parking lots. The current study recorded hydrologic da...

The effective use of pervious concrete in environmental site design requires consistent design procedures integrating the structural and material properties of the pervious concrete pavement with hydrologic performance of the pervious concrete system. Design procedures to size pervious concrete storm-water systems are presented based on criteria for freeze-thaw protection and drawdown reliabili...

Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters occurring annually in the Philippines. A call for a solution for this malady is very challenging as well as crucial to be addressed. Mapping flood hazard is an effective tool in determining the extent and depth of floods associated with hazard level in specified areas that need to be prioritized during flood occurrences. Precedent to the...

The hydrologic adversaries like high magnitude storms, extreme dryness, aridity, more than normal demand for water etc. often cause a huge stress on the storage structures such as reservoirs and check dams. This stress implies a lot of adverse effects on the adjacent population. One of the major causes of floods and droughts were due to the mis-management of stored water during hydrologic adver...

Complicated research and management questions regarding watershed systems often require the use of more than one simulation model. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a means to integrate multiple simulation models to predict holistic system response. In this paper we explore the use of a componentbased approach for the runtime integration of models, implemented as “plugand-play” software com...

Flooding is one of the most occurring natural hazards every year risking the lives and properties of the affected communities, especially in Philippine context. To visualize the extent and mitigate the impacts of flood hazard in Malingon River in Valencia City, Bukidnon, this paper presents the combination of Geographic Information System, high-resolution Digital Elevation Model, land cover, so...
