Sentence examples for water surface slope from inspiring English sources

The results show that mean flow depth (d) and water surface slope (S) can only explain a small proportion of variance in flow resistance.

The two proposed methods are evaluated using a synthetic experiment with various conditions including water level observation error, reservoir stage-storage relationship error, and the influence of water surface slope.

Specifically, we investigate how the parameters are related to the flow resistance in terms of Manning roughness, shear velocity and water surface slope, and several formulae showing their relationships are proposed.

Daily specific stream power for a gauging site located in the lower Narmada Basin was estimated by using daily discharge data available from 1949 to 1999, at-a-station hydraulic geometry equations and the relationship between discharge and water surface slope.

The capability of ANN models to predict the stable alluvial channels dimensions is investigated, where the flow rate and sediment mean grain size were considered as input variables and wetted perimeter, hydraulic radius, and water surface slope were considered as output variables.

The flood outline is intersected with high resolution LiDAR topographic data to extract water levels at the flood margin, and to estimate patterns of uncertainty the gauged water levels are used to create a reference water surface slope for comparison with the satellite-derived water levels.

This study highlights the physical processes affected by managed realignment, and the importance of understanding the causes of complex water surface slopes at multiple scales.

For the non-winter periods, the radar derived slope estimates (mean = 0.0003) were constant over the mission lifetime, and in agreement with previously measured USGS water surface slopes and slopes determined from USGS topographic maps.

Large-scale flow patterns and landforms were measured on a vegetated tidal marsh and unvegetated tidal flat, in particular dynamic changes in two-dimensional water surface slopes, flow velocities and directions on an extensive network of locations.

Local tidal conditions and inadequate drainage at this realignment trial contributed to significant channel erosion due to the establishment of water surface slopes and pooling between the newly realigned site and the adjacent intertidal zone.

They represent the most probable channel shape because they minimize such variables as the angle of deflection of the current, the water-surface slope, and the total work of turning done by the river.
