    • Spatial Analysis of Storm Depths from an Arizona Raingage Network 

      Fennessey, Neil M.; Eagleson, Peter S.; Qinliang, Wang; Rodriguez-Iturbe, Ignacio (Cambridge, Mass : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems,Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1986-08)
      Eight years of summer rainstorm observations are analyzed by a dense network of 93 raingages operated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, in the 150 km Walnut Gulch experimental catchment ...

    • Wave Reflection and Transmission in Channels of Gradually Varying Depth 

      Ippen, A. T.; Alam, A. M. Z.; Bourodimos, E. L. (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Hydrodynamics Laboratory, Department of Civil Engineering, 1964-07)
      This report presents the results of a study on the reflection and transmission of water waves in a rectangular channel with transitions of linearly varying depths. Two channel sections of uniform depths are joined by ...

    • Dispersion of Pollutants in Estuary Type Flows 

      Holley, Jr., Edward R.; Harleman, Donald R. F. (Cambridge, Mass. : Hydrodynamics Laboratory, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1965-01)
      Much of the engineering literature has failed to show an understanding of the mechanism of longitudinal dispersion which arises in the one dimensional representation of pollution transport in turbulent shear flows. In the ...
