    • Nonlinear Filtering, Parameter Estimation and Decomposition of Large Rainfall-Runoff Models 

      Angulo, Carlos Enrique Puente; Bras, Rafael L. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1984-10)
      Three topics related to the real time forecasting of river flows are studied. First, the usefulness of nonlinear filtering procedures in connection with a conceptual rainfall-runoff model is investigated. By means of a ...

    • SWAHP: A Soil Water and Heat Parameterization 

      Milly, P. Christopher D. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1983-02)
      SWAHP is an efficient algorithm for prediction of moisture and heat fluxes across a bare soil surface. Surface moisture flux is calculated using the time compression assumption in conjunction with special solutions of the ...

    • Planning and Design of Agricultural Drainage under Uncertainty: A Dynamic Multi-level Approach 

      Strzepek, Kenneth M.; Wilson, John L.; Marks, David H. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1982-07)
      Drainage systems are major capital investments for irrigated agriculture. Therefore,the-goal is to install drainage systems that will be most beneficial to the agricultural economy as a whole. Planning for agricultural ...
