An investigation of alternative means of achieving water quality objectives

Creator:: Kerri, Kenneth Donald
Abstract:: Storage of water for water quality control is one of the alternative means of achieving water quality objectives. Authorities in the field of water quality management disagree regarding the use of precious water for the dilution of wastes. The costs of achieving water quality objectives by treatment of wastes at...

Streamwater Microbial Communities as Hydrologic Observation: Insights Gained from Investigation of a Novel Dataset

Creator:: URycki, Dawn R.
Abstract:: Interactions and feedbacks among climate change effects and continued human impacts will exacerbate impacts to water resources in complex ways. An urgent imperative of the hydrologic community is to understand the response of hydrologic systems to these perturbations, thus contributing to long-term sustainability of water resources in an uncertain future....

Multiple objective planning procedures in water resource development : the trade-off ratio

Creator:: Lynne, Gary D.
Abstract:: The social and economic objectives of society in the United States are many and varied. All objectives, in turn, cannot be achieved simultaneously because of a finite resource base. The problem of finding an optimum, in some sense, level of achievement for the various objectives is complicated by lack of...

Economic efficiency and distributive consequences of interbasin water transfers : a framework for analysis

Creator:: Beattie, Bruce R.
Abstract:: If informed and rational judgments are to be made concerning proposed large scale interbasin water diversions, it is imperative that competent positive analysis be undertaken by scientists of relevant disciplines. It is the primary purpose of this thesis to pull together into a single interrelated package, the economic theory needed...

A production function analysis of water resource productivity in Pacific Northwest agriculture

Creator:: Holloway, Milton L.
Abstract:: The competition or rivalry for the use of water resources among economic sectors of the Pacific Northwest and among geographical regions of the western United States has intensified in recent years. This rivalry and the long run prospects for water shortages have increased the demand for research concerning the productivity...

Beyond the paired-catchment approach : isotope tracing to illuminate stocks, flows, transit time, and scaling

Creator:: Hale, V. Cody
Abstract:: This dissertation integrates a process-based hydrological investigation with an ongoing paired-catchment study to better understand how forest harvest impacts catchment function at multiple scales. We do this by addressing fundamental questions related to the stocks, flows and transit times of water. Isotope tracers are used within a top-down catchment intercomparison...

Investigating capillary pressure and interfacial area for multiphase flow in porous media using pore-scale imaging and lattice-Boltzmann modeling

Creator:: Porter, Mark L.
Abstract:: Recent advances in imaging technology and numerical modeling have greatly enhanced pore-scale investigations of multiphase flow and transport in porous media. It is now feasible to obtain high resolution 3-dimensional pore-scale data, and numerical methods such as the lattice- Boltzmann (LB) technique have been developed specifically for simulating such phenomena....

Environmental Impacts of Renewable Energy (solar and wind) on Water, Food and Energy Nexus

Creator:: Hassanpour Adeh, Elnaz
Abstract:: Rapid increasing of renewable energies and the knowledge about their environmental effects are very limited. As a result, the renewable energies (e.g. solar or wind energies) will play a vital role in the future because it is well accepted by environmental friendly industries. This dissertation presents the modeling, data analysis...

Quantifying the Unproductive Water Lost as Evaporation from Different Irrigation Designs by Analysis of the Soil Stable Water Isotope Compositions

Creator:: Al-Oqaili, Firas M.
Abstract:: The knowledge about the intensive agricultural irrigation is very limited, but the use of irrigation is rapidly increasing. As an outcome, the sympathetic ecosystem is accepting modern irrigation that will play an essential function in the present and future for agricultural products. My dissertation will display the modification for investigation...
