Sentence examples for storm discharge from inspiring English sources

We then demonstrate its use for prediction of whole-catchment storm discharge at other first order catchments at Maimai and the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest in Oregon.

The study presents a semi-analytical model that is able to extrapolate the riverine DOC dynamics during storm discharge events of varying duration and intensity (R2 up to 0.9).

This high storage component likely reflects: (i) the capacity of stream channels upstream of the gauging site to store sediment behind debris dams, within in-filled pools, and widened reaches of both the Opitonui and Awaroa streams, and (ii) the relatively low peak storm discharge of ~0.04.0 m3 s−1 ha−1  u.

The response of storm discharge, specific conductance, and contaminant loading at the spring depended on initial aquifer flow conditions, which varied from very low (spring discharge of 0.48 m3/s) to high (spring discharge of 2.7 m3/s): concentrations and recovery were the highest when initial aquifer flow conditions were low.

These results revealed that ca. 76.5% of annual DOC was exported during a handful of storm-discharge events (78.9% for spring and 74.2% from autumn) over agricultural landscapes.

Here we propose a model that incorporates two stochastic models for (a) the storm water discharge and (b) the complex system functioning, into a tool for the storm water sewer reliability assessment.

In humid, temperate regions, there remains limited direct evidence of the influence of land cover changes on hydrologic response (e.g. storm event discharge volume), especially across larger watersheds.

This work demonstrates that the effects of land cover on hydrologic response are not always consistent with standard hydrologic intuition (i.e. increasing forested land does not always reduce storm event discharge volumes) and that often other factors may be more important than basic land cover in controlling hydrologic response.

Rain caused beach closings yesterday in Spring Lake and Sea Girt, N.J., because of storm water discharges from Wreck Pond.

Conventional solutions adopted in the past, such as adding a second pipe system to collect only the storm water, discharging it into the streams, or adding plant capacity to treat all combined flow during severe storms, have proved tremendously expensive.

Investigations of Brown and Peake [40] showed that road debris represents the main source of PAHs in road runoff and storm water discharges.
