  • Summary:
    In poorly instrumented areas, rainfall records are often absent or short, compounding the statistical challenge of estimating extreme rainfall characteristics and designing flood control structures. In this research two separate rainfall datasets in the country of Ghana were used with two different probability distribution frequency analysis methods to estimate Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) parameters. General extreme value type II (GEV-II) probability distributions were fit using two robust parameterization approaches, one called regional for combining regional and local data, the other called global for combining a global parameter and local data. Annual maximum rainfall data were from the Ghanaian Meteorological Service Department (GMSD) 8 ground gages, containing N-minute to 24hr durations at 5 to 24 year record lengths, and from 381 TRMM satellite precipitation bins covering the country, containing 3 to 24hr duration at 9 year record length in 2007. TRMM rainfall depths were statistically greater at 63% of the stations. Goodness of fit was computed for a maximum return interval of 43 yrs, and error analysis was computed for 24-hr data at return intervals from 77 to 109 yrs, for all four separately parameterized GEV-II equations and corresponding IDF curves. The best fit and least error was obtained with the global method applied regionally, which used GMSD data to derive time-based parameters and TRMM to derive distribution parameters. The regional method could not incorporate GMSD data, and used only TRMM data, which led to substantial overestimation of rainfall intensity for short durations. This research shows it was essential to combine GMSD and TRMM data for IDF generation in Ghana. The short TRMM record sets with duplicate observed depths at increasing durations caused the regional method to generate internal consistency errors in the IDF plots, suggesting the global method with regional application is best for Ghana.

  • Summary:
    In-channel rock vane structures are widely used in stream restoration as a way to reduce stream channel erosion and create pool or riffle features. When these structures change hydraulic gradients they may affect ecological stream functions, such as hyporheic exchange flow (HEF) patterns. A study of constructed in-channel structure controls on HEF was conducted in the 3rd order Batavia Kill, New York using stream and hyporheic temperature amplitude analysis and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) hydraulic simulations. Temperature monitors were installed in the water column and channel bed at six locations around each of seven in-channel restoration structures (three cross-vanes and four J-hooks) at baseflow in 2007. Elevation surveys of the structures were then used to simulate HEF using CFD. The results indicate a pattern of pronounced upwelling in the run section just below the structure, upwelling transitioning to downwelling within the pool, and pronounced downwelling in the glide out of the pool. This pattern is consistent with natural riffle pool sequences. The direction of HEF inferred from the temperature amplitude analysis agreed with the direction of flow simulated with CFD at 80% of the locations, and the few disagreements were expected due to model limitations. CFD simulation demonstrated that increasing stream flows result in changes in HEF spatial patterns and magnitude at each structure. This work illustrates how CFD simulations can guide design of in-channel restoration structures for HEF function.

  • Summary:
    Hydrologic model estimates of runoff quantity and quality are appropriately sensitive to the extent and distribution of impervious area (IA) inputs. This research enhances land use maps of IA extracted from road networks and demonstrates its impact on hydrologic model parameters for 704 watersheds in New York. National Land Cover Database (NLCD) 1992 and 2001 data at 30m pixel resolution provided baseline maps, and enhancement involved reclassifying pixels with overlapping high accuracy vector roads. NLCD 1992 is limited by its lack of explicit IA estimates, instead relying on wide ranges of IA for developed classes, and by the failure of its transportation class to capture most roads. NLCD 2001 has no transportation class, and its explicit IA estimates were found to underestimate IA. Road enhancement caused significant increases in hydrologic parameters such as the Curve Number, Runoff Coefficient, and Event Mean Concentration based pollutant loads, with a p < 1E-3 for a paired, two-tailed t-test. Magnitude of hydrological parameter changes increased with increasing watershed road density. Roads in the enhanced NLCD were treated as directly connected impervious area, which caused large differences in pollutant loads generated by explicit runoff simulation. While NLCD allowed runoff to filter through wetlands and forests, enhanced NLCD directly discharged polluted road runoff and doubled phosphorus Export Coefficient estimated loads. This research suggests that watershed models use road enhanced NLCD to represent IA.

  • Summary:
    Stormwater bioretention basin recharge has the potential to raise the watertable and adversely impact subsurface infrastructure, undermining the benefits of naturalizing the urban water cycle. This research examined how groundwater mounding responded to three spatial arrangements of bioretention basins, from separated units to clustered units to single units, and changes in hydraulic conductivity, storm intensity, and antecedent recharge, for 28 sub-watersheds in an 8-ha Syracuse, New York sewershed with 43% impervious cover. Bioretention basin volumetric capacities were designed for a 24-hr duration 2-yr return interval rainfall event. MODFLOW simulations with hydraulic conductivity at 1 cm hr-1 predicted an increase in median groundwater mounding from 0.28-m to 0.72-m when separation distances were reduced from equally distributed to single units. In sag points, however mounding exceeded 1-m. By setting hydraulic conductivity to 0.01 cm hr-1 median mounding was greater than 1-m for all spatial designs, in all locations. Groundwater mound overlap was identified for spatial arrangements where intersecting streets created superposition, and greater mounding was observed at corner-situated bioretention basins. After 30-yrs of recharge, the steady state watertable had risen by 1.1-m, and subsequent storm event mounding could interfere with subsurface infrastructure in approximately 20% of the watershed, localized in the floodplain. This study recommends an expanded investigation of long-term watertable adjustment, possibly followed by removal of some floodplain infrastructure or designs to enhance watertable tolerance.

  • Summary:
    The qanat water supply technology, which gravity drains mountain aquifers into valleys, is considered as a culturally appropriate and ecological sustainable design to meet northern Cyprus' drinking water development needs. This research estimates the boundary and water budget for the proposed qanat recharge area of 370 km2, which is in the upper elevations of the limestone dominated Five Finger Mountain Range. The mountain drainage was analyzed using global elevation data from the Shuttle Ranging Topography Mission (SRTM). Efforts to use Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) annual precipitation for water budget inputs failed due to extreme error when tested against 10-30 yrs of meteorological station data; TRMM under-estimated depths on the narrow mountain peaks. Gage records, while few in number, were area averaged to set average annual precipitation inputs at 530 mm yr-1. Evaporation was estimated using a complementary relationship areal evapotranspiration (CRAE) model, setting average atmospheric outputs at 221 mm yr-1. Recharge to the qanat aquifer was set by subtracting evaporation from precipitation, and then allocating 50% of the remaining water to environmental services. At 25% development, the qanat system supplies 14 Mm3 yr-1 of water, meeting the drinking water deficit of 13 Mm3.

  • Summary:
    Polyline data are often adequate for illustration of roadways for mapping and GIS, yet are often lacking when compared with surface coverages, such as raster data, for performing quantitative environmental simulation modeling where spatial representations are necessary. Widely used land cover raster data, such as the National Land Cover Database (NLCD), on the other hand, were not collected with sufficient spatial resolution to allow adequate representation of small-scale features such as roadways. Using tools available in ArcGIS software, vector road files obtained from the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) Accident Location Information System (ALIS) were converted to raster data to create spatially explicit representations of impervious area associated with roadways. Comparison of this new coverage with the NLCD results in an increase of approximately 2085 km2 of newly identified impervious coverage for New York State (NYS) not present in the NLCD, representing a 164% increase from the transportation class in the NLCD. Of the land cover that would be reclassified to roadway using this methodology, approximately 37% would be reclassified from forest, 29% from agricultural land and 26% from the residential land cover classifications.

  • Summary:
    In communities where flood frequency data are unavailable, rainfall-runoff-routing models can help in naturalization studies of dam removal and subsequent flood impacts. We used the federal TR-20 model with enhancement of automated calibration and radar rainfall data inputs to study dam removal in the 186 km2 section of New York's Onondaga Creek. Below the dam, Onondaga Creek has been widened and bounded by levees to contain the 100-yr flood. TR-20 input parameters for Curve Numbers, time of concentration, and channel dimensions were obtained from spatially detailed space-borne and field-based data products. Automated calibration was constrained to adjust CN parameters by only 2 units of their initial values, and the difference between predicted and observed discharge was reduced from 29% to 1%. Validation with radar rainfall had a predicted fit within 4% of observed peaks, and a difference of 18% using calibrated parameters. To achieve a similar model fit using uniform precipitation of the same average depth required Curve Number adjustments by 5 units. The calibrated TR-20 then simulated dam controlled flow for 100-yr frequency 24-hr duration rainfall, and the predicted peak discharge of 97 m3 s-1 was within 1% of flood frequency estimates. TR-20 next predicted a peak discharge of 270 m3 s-1 for the same 100-yr, 24-hr rainfall with the dam removed, which was 4% higher than regional regression estimated peaks for an unregulated watershed. HEC-RAS was used to establish water surface depths for the TR-20 simulated dam removal, which showed naturalized 100-yr flood peaks overtopped the levees. Use of radar rainfall and automated calibration are tools that should be formally incorporated into TR-20 to enhance model performance.

  • Summary:
    The qanat water supply technology, by which gravity drains mountain aquifers into valleys, is considered as a culturally appropriate and ecological sustainable design to meet freshwater development needs in northern Cyprus. This work provides a first-order analysis of the surface water budget to estimate qanat feasibility. The proposed qanat recharge area of 370 km2 is in the upper elevations of the limestone dominated Five Finger Mountain Range, is analyzed using technical data reports, field visits, and satellite elevation data. Satellite based Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) monthly rainfall totals at a 0.25° grid were tested for complementing sparse precipitation gage data, but TRMM underestimated gage observations by 43% in narrow zones of high rainfall during the wet winter months. A water budget for qanat supply used 30-yr average gage records within the qanat recharge region, which set annual precipitation at 529 mm yr-1. A calibrated complementary relationship areal evapotranspiration model established atmospheric outputs at 222 mm yr-1, slightly below the island-average of 280 mm yr-1 estimated by the Cyprus Water Department. Recharge to the qanat aquifer was determined by subtracting evaporation from precipitation, and then allocating 50% of the remainder to environmental services. In the proposed qanat recharge region, this water budget yields an estimated recharge volume of 57 Mm3 yr-1. At less than 25% development, this volume satisfies the 13 Mm3 annual deficit in northern Cyprus and protects against saltwater intrusion. Additional freshwater conservation measures in northern Cyprus are needed to ensure ecological sustainability in northern Cyprus.

  • Summary:
    A semi-distributed, physical-based Urban Forest Effects - Hydrology (UFORE-Hydro) model was created to simulate and study tree effects on urban hydrology and guide management of urban runoff at the catchment scale. The model simulates hydrological processes of precipitation, interception, evaporation, infiltration, and runoff using data inputs of weather, elevation, and land cover along with 9 channel, soil, and vegetation parameters. Weather data are pre-processed by UFORE using Penman-Monteith equations to provide potential evaporation terms for open water and vegetation. Canopy interception algorithms modified established routines to better account for variable density urban trees, short vegetation and seasonal growth phenology. Actual evaporation algorithms allocate potential energy between leaf surface storage and transpiration from soil storage. Infiltration algorithms use a variable rain rate Green-Ampt formulation and handle both infiltration excess and saturation excess ponding and runoff. Stream discharge is the sum of surface runoff and TOPMODEL-based subsurface flow equations. Automated calibration routines that use observed discharge has been coupled to the model. Once calibrated, the model can examine how alternative tree management schemes impact urban runoff. UFORE-Hydro model testing in the urban Dead Run catchment of Baltimore, Maryland, USA illustrated how trees significantly reduce runoff for low intensity and short duration precipitation events.

Publishing News and Celebrations

Reading, writing, and reviewing are central to our profession, and our students are mentored to participate in this process. Manuscripts in development will be presented at the American Geophysical Union meetings this spring in Toronto, as well as at the ESF Spotlight on Research and Outreach. We are excited by the recent publications in Ecological Engineering on urban watershed restoration with bioretention basins and in Hydrological Processes on modeling and design of river restoration for hyporheic exchange flow. A special issue of ASCEs Journal of Hydrologic Engineering presented our work on enhancing satellite land cover estimates of impervious cover, and an article on estimating extreme rainfall in Ghana using remote sensing data and GEV Type II quantiles is forthcoming in Journal of Hydrology.

Return throughout 2009 to learn more about our writing and publications!
