Planning and Design of Agricultural Drainage under Uncertainty: A Dynamic Multi-level Approach
(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 ... -
Irrigated Agricultural Expansion Planning in Developing Countries: Performance vs. Resilience vs. Reliability
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1983-06)Agricultural expansion planning in developing countries where there is extensive government involvement in the planning process can be defined in a two level hierarchy. At the first level, strategic planning on the ... -
A Derived Flood Frequency Distribution Based on the Geomorphoclimatic IUH and the Density Function of Rainfall Excess
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1983-07)The geomorphoclimatic theory is used, along with the joint probability density function of storm duration and storm intensity and the representation of the infiltration process, to derive the flood frequency distribution ...
