Shallow aquifer storage and recovery (SASR): Regional management of underground water storage in hydraulically connected aquifer-stream systems

Creator:: Neumann, Philip E.
Abstract:: A novel mode of shallow aquifer management could increase the volumetric potential and distribution of underground, freshwater storage: Shallow aquifer storage and recovery (SASR). In this mode, water is efficiently stored in basin fill aquifers with strong hydraulic connection to surface water. Regional numerical modeling can provide a linkage between...

Processing 3D Models of Large Instream Wood for Hydraulics Applications – Structure- from-Motion Workflow Documentation

Creator:: Tutka, Michał
Abstract:: Estimating how large instream wood (LW) may impact local hydraulics is critical both for mitigating flood hazards and for ensuring intended habitat benefits of the LW are produced. In practice, the design of forms such as LW is limited by a lack of mechanistic tools for estimating how LW features...

Sensitivity and Partitioning in Remote Sensing Based Evapotranspiration Models

Creator:: Talsma, Carl J.
Abstract:: Satellite Based evapotranspiration (ET) models have become a dominant means to estimate large-scale surface fluxes of water. Global and regional ET estimates are important parameters in many climate forecasts and hydrologic models. However, large scale partitioning of ET into soil evaporation, transpiration, and canopy interceptions remains largely unknown and modeled...

The Global Consumption Speeds of Premixed Large-Hydrocarbon Fuel/Air Turbulent Bunsen Flames

Creator:: Fillo, Aaron Jesse
Abstract:: Large-hydrocarbon fuels are used for ground and air transportation because of their high energy-density and will be for the foreseeable future. However, combustion of large-hydrocarbon fuels in a turbulent environment is poorly understood and difficult to predict. The turbulent flame speed, which is the velocity at which a flame front...

Evaluating the Sustainability of an Advanced Biofuel Using Attributional and Consequential Life Cycle Assessments

Creator:: McDaniel, Allexander M.
Abstract:: Attributional and consequential life cycle assessments are useful in evaluating the environmental impacts of a process, product, or decision. Both types of life cycle assessments differ however in their scope and their ability to answer specific questions. In order to fully understand and compare the environmental impacts of a sugarcane...

Improving soil water determination in spatially variable field using fiber optic technology and Bayesian decision theory

Creator:: Sayde, Chadi
Abstract:: Achieving and maintaining sustainability in irrigated agriculture production in the era of rapidly increasing stress on our natural resources require, among other essential actions, optimum control and management of the applied water. Thus, a significant upgrade of the currently available soil water monitoring technologies is needed. The primary goal of...

Proposal of an Automated Workflow for Appropriate Tile Drainage Simulation in Denitrifying Bioreactor Planning and Design

Creator:: Grohman, Travis A.
Abstract:: Denitrifying bioreactors are an edge-of-field treatment technology particularly well suited for nitrate removal from subsurface (tile) drainage effluent of agricultural lands. The effectiveness of a proposed denitrifying bioreactor is site-specific and depends upon the complicated interplay of field and environmental parameters controlling discharge events, nitrate concentrations, subsurface temperatures, dissolved oxygen...

Physical Modeling of the Feedbacks Between a Reed Canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) Patch, Hydraulics, and Bedform Evolution

Creator:: Elliott, Susan H.
Abstract:: Reed Canarygrass (RCG) is an aggressive invader in aquatic ecosystems that swiftly modifies the environment and decreases biodiversity. A physical model was used to investigate the mechanisms by which RCG spreads. Experimental trials were implemented to examine feedbacks between a mid-channel patch of the flexible RCG, hydraulics, and bedform evolution...

Design, analysis, and validation of composite c-channel beams

Creator:: Koski, William C.
Abstract:: A lightweight carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) c-channel beam was previously designed using analytical theory and finite element analysis and subsequently manufactured through a pultrusion process. Physical testing revealed the prototype did not meet the bending and torsional stiffness of the beam model. An investigation revealed that the manufactured prototype...

DNS study of Particle-bed-Turbulence Interactions in Oscillatory Flows

Creator:: Ghodke, Chaitanya Deepak
Abstract:: Turbulent flows over rough surfaces are encountered in many engineering and geophysical applications. Flows of this nature, due to their increasing technological interests, have been a subject of rigorous investigation in recent years. Of the particular interest to the oceanographic community is the study of turbulent oscillatory flow over rough...
