    • Linked Hydrodynamic and Biogeochemical Models of Water Quality in Shallow Lakes 

      Shanahan, Peter; Harleman, Donald R. F. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Aquatic Science and Environmental Engineering, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982-03)
      Approaches to lake water quality modeling are critically examined with particular attention to the formulation of water quality transport as the link between hydrodynamics and biogeochemical reaction. A linked water quality ...

    • Parameterization of Moisture and Heat Fluxes Across the Land Surface for Use in Atmospheric General Circulation Models 

      Milly, P. Christopher D.; Eagleson, Peter S. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resources Systems , Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982-06)
      The response of a bare soil surface to atmospheric forcing -- rain, wind, sunshine, etc. -- may be expressed in terms of the resultant evaporation rate and sensible and radiant heat losses. Examining the earth-atmosphere ...

    • Calibration and Verification of the Cooling Lake Model for North Anna Power Station: During the Period July 1978 - September 1981 

      Wells, Scott A.; Adams, E. Eric; Harleman, Donald R. F. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Aquatic Sciences and Environmental Engineering, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982-03)
      The North Anna Power Station (3 proposed nuclear units with a total capacity of 2820MWe) is located in the State of Virginia about 41 miles northwest of Richmond. The plant condenser heat dissipation system consists of a ...
