Dear Group Member,
I came across an interesting problem, as given below.
In an arid region, heavy depletion of water is observed from a
reservoir underlain by carvenous limestone. There could be either or
both of the following two reasons for the same.
1. In the submergence area of dam, a number of dug-cum-bore wells
exist which recharge the aquifer whenever the reservoir water level
rises above the parapet of the wells (acting as recharging wells).
2. Due to presence of wide fractures in the underneath limestone
layer.
I invite suggestions from the learned members regarding research
methodology to be followed for finding the real cause of heavy
seepage from the reservoir - hydrogeological investigations,
assessing the direction of seepage water / groundwater flow, nuclear
techniques, modelling of groundwater flow, and suggesting appropriate
remedial measures (such as sealing the wells with impervious clay).
Regards
Kumar
Dear all,
I am a Phd Student, can anyone help me to receive a
copy the article entiteled " Management of a complex
water resources system using the swat model: case
study of the Wadi Tafna Basin (Algeria)", the autors
are: Errih M., YEBDRI D. and Hamlet A. in the
Hydrological Science and Technology of the Americain
Institute of Hydrology, VOL;22, N°1-4 PP161-172.
Thank you
Abnet,
If you do not have very much programming experience, I recommend
MATLAB for new program development. It's advantages are that it is a
interpreted language rather than an compiled language and that matrix
manipulations are written similarly to the way we write them on paper.
The advantage of an interpreted language is that you get quick feedback
on errors and the errors are usually easier to understand than errors
identified by a compiler. This means faster program development. The
disadvantage of MATLAB over a compiled language is speed, though I am
told this is less of an issue than it used to be. For initial
development, processing speed should not be a significant concern.
I do not use MATLAB myself. I have used FORTRAN for many years and
am very happy with FORTRAN-90. I also use YORICK for situations where an
interpreted language is much more convenient than FORTRAN. YORICK is
excellent for data processing. I found YORICK a bit difficult to learn,
but wonderful once I have done so. My discussions with others have
convinced me that MATLAB is a better way to start scientific
programming. Experience with MATLAB significantly helps learning to use
a compiled language.
Another language you may want to look at is COMSOL which was previously
sold as FEMLAB. It is a really a higher level package that is based on
MATLAB aimed at solving problems where partial differential equations
are important. I know very little about it, but it seems to have become
very popular. I suspect the decision of COMSOL over MATLAB is cost of
the programs compared to cost of your time. You, of course, can't know
in advance the time advantage of COMSOL over MATLAB. A disadvantage now
is portability of your programming knowledge. MATLAB has been well
established for twenty years and relatively cheap. COMSOL is new, rare
and currently more expensive. So you can readily convince an employer to
buy MATLAB whereas COMSOL may be more difficult to convince them of.
For those who want free software, I am told that OCTAVE is very similar
to MATLAB as is SCILAB. Yorick is also free. I would be very interested
to learn of comparisons of these programs.

Dear Abnet,
I would suggest using fortran langguage programs.
If you will be research of urban runoff, You can use of KINEROS model.

Dear All,
Kindly give your input
Study area: water quality model
Model used: STREAM 2
Problem: unable to calibrate the model as per
observations.
I am working on water quality modeling for river
Yamuna using Stream 2. Presently I am unable to
calibrate the model as per the primary (observed BOD,
DO, velocity data along the stretch of river) and
secondary data (flow rates, BOD, DO, location of
drains). Model requires input of no. of iterations to
be performed for calibration ie. Determination of
parameters, associated with DO, BOD. When I provide
input as no. of iterations it only does “1” iteration
and report the RMSE value which is of course wrong.
The results shown are non realistic, and observed
values cannot be seen in results.
I am not sure whether I am entering the data in some
wrong fashion or what.
But that seems to be right as its showing results
without calibration with arbitrarily assigned
parameter values.
Kindly help me in this regard.
Please let me know if some more details are required.
Input: 4 observations of DO, BOD along the stretch of
river.
DO, BOD data of 7 nodes (ie. 6 drains), 6
reaches.
Regards
Abnet,
It's very good that you want to develop some model. There are n number of
options from which you can develop the model. The programming language options
is depends upon what type of daat you want to use & which format you want the
ouput.
Still using following options you can develop your model
1) Using ArcGIS or MapObject
2) Excel & AutoCAD
3) VB & Mapx
4) C/C++
If you need any further information feel free to ask me. I can help you more.

Dear All,
You may have interest in the following course:
http://www.coe.yamanashi.ac.jp/coe/va/index.html
Virtual Academy (VA) 2007
Purpose
The purpose of the Virtual Academy of the University of Yamanashi Centre
of Excellence for Research and Education on Integrated River Basin Management in
the Asian Monsoon Region is to encourage international collaboration in research
and the exchange of information and expertise in relation to river basin
management. Registration in the Virtual Academy will give participants access to
hydrological models, and the theoretical and practical expertise necessary to
properly use them for their own local applications, through a structured
curriculum offered through the internet.
Benefits
Participants will be able to consult with experts from the COE, regarding the
models and other technology being offered, and the underlying theory. Successful
completion of the Virtual Academy curriculum will be recognized by a certificate
awarded by the University of Yamanashi.
Participants are invited to attend an annual workshop, for presentation of
research results, discussion of model performance and suggested improvements,
and intensive consultation between VA participants and COE researchers. Partial
funding will be available to attend the workshop for selected participants.
Target Audience of the Virtual Academy
The Virtual Academy is intended for use by engineers and hydrologists interested
in developing expertise in the application of hydrological modeling tools. It is
intended for use by personnel who are affiliated with an academic or government
institution, consultancy, or company. I would like to apologize for any
inconvinience.
Sincerely yours,
Sangam
I suggest you check the weather reporting agencies on the internet for nearby
countries exposed to same intertropical front movement - Indonesia, Singapore,
Malaysia, India, maybe Darwin; they should all have such data developed - I
would think also Manila. Adjust as many stations as you can get to your site by
ratio of mean seasonal daily rainfall then average them for each duration and
return period.
A possibly useful reference is Hydrometeorology by Wiesner , Chapman and Hall
(1970)
Another is an article in the ASCE Hydraulics Division Journal by Frederick
Charles Bell, January,1969.
His conclusion was that the relationships derived in the USA by Hersfield are
generally applicable, with only small variation, world wide. You need to have
an estimate of the i-hour 2-year OR the 10-year 1-hour for various durations,
and from that you can ratio up to other return periods with the curves developed
by Bell.
In the absence of either of the above two indices, he also gives an approximate
formula for estimating the 1-hour 2-year based on the mean of maximum annual
observation da precipitation and the mean annual number of thunderstorm days.
In the Journal of Hydrometeorology (American Meteorological Society), June 2004:
"Rainfall Amount, Intensity, Diration, and Frequency Relatopships in the Mae
Chaem Watershed in Southeast Asia", by Koh Dairaku, Seita Emori, and Taikan Oki.
An abstract can be viewed on the AMS website, and a pdf file can be downloaded
but there is a cost. This paper only dealt with 2 years of data 1998 and 1999,
so it would not be of direct benefit to you. However, the authors may have
references available now for the record up to now, 8+ years from which 2-year
return period data might be fairly reasonable.
As for your proposal, it would appear that you have not considered return
period.

Subject: [hydrologymodel] daily rainfall data from non-recording gage
dear members;
I am trying to develop an IDF for our locality using probability analysis.
However, i have this problem on rainfall data. the only data available is
daily rainfall depths and duration for about 25 years taken from a non
recording gage. In developing the IDF, one has to obtain the average
rainfall intensities for time increment windows of 15 min , 20 min , 30
min, 45 min, 60 min and up to 72 hrs (either on annual series or partial
series basis ) and treat these with probability analysis using appropriate
models. My problem is how to get the average rainfall intensities for time
increment windows enumerated above with data on non-recording gage. What i
know is that it would be very much easier if you have outputs from a
pluviometer. In the absence of data from recording gages , Is it safe to
say that these average intensities can be computed by merely dividing
rainfall duration ( say t= 5.0 min ) from rainfall depth (say d = 10 mm )
and consider the quotient ( i = 120 mm / hr ) as part of time increment
window of 5 min? if so, what about for rainfall duration not within the
time increment windows?
any suggestion / s will be greatly appreciated . .

shallow groundwater table?
(c) How to model the effect of brackish water in
rivers (due to tidal backwater effect from sea) on
groundwater in coastal areas?
(d) How to develop correlation between resistivity
values and TDS and between resistivity values and
hydraulic conductivity.
(e) Suitability of Kriging, Akima and Inverse Distance
Weighting techniques for interpolation/regionalization
of different parameters/variables.
Any suggestions for the above will be helpful for
extension of this (or similar) study in future.
There is a small errata in the report - title of
