This paper compares a 3-dimensional hydro-ecological model with a 2-dimensional model simulating the distribution and fate of Escherichia Coli (E.Coli) discharges from a sewage treatment plant discharging into Dublin Bay, ...
Many discharge prediction methods have been developed for compound meandering channels. Most of these methods have been found to produce reasonable results for fixed-bed channels, but the effects of the presence of a mobile ...
Different definitions of the bankfull condition in rivers are based on morphological characteristics, boundary conditions and geometrical properties. Consequently, the magnitude and associated return period of the bankfull ...
An improved approach for applying three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models to estimate
uniform flow stage–discharge relationships and velocity distributions in straight compound channels is ...
In Deliverable 10.1, a optimal methodology for combining precipitation information
from raingauges, radar and NWP models (in this case HIRLAM) was described. It
was based on an artificial neural network combination model, ...
Phosphorous has been implicated as the primary cause of the deterioration of surface water quality in Ireland. Extensive water quality surveys revealed that diffuse sources (runoff and subsurface flows) from agricultural ...
The M3 motorway in Ireland was constructed between the years 2007 and 2010. The motorway crosses the River Boyne, which is a designated salmonid water under the EU Freshwater directive, and its tributaries. The paper ...
Nine sediment transport formulae were reviewed and applied to both inbank and overbank flows in straight and meandering compound channels. The predictive capabilities of the formulae were evaluated using experimental data ...
Algorithms based on simple one-dimensional stage–discharge models for compound channels have been developed and tested for overbank flow data from the UK Flood Channel Facility and the University of Ulster channel with ...
Tackling the problem of eutrophication in fresh waters is at the top of the agenda for the implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) in Europe. The problem is caused primarily by an increase in phosphorus loading ...
