Coupled Flux of Heat and Moisture Across a Snowcovered Landsurface with Vegetation
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1982-04)A theoretical study of snow accumulation and ablation in vegetated areas is presented. A one-dimensional energy and mass balance model of winter (non-transpiring) vegetation is coupled to an existing one-dimensional energy ... -
Constrained Stochastic Climate Simulation
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1982-05)A stochastic, multivariate, hydrometeorological data generation algorithm is presented. Hourly values of precipitation, cloud cover, shortwave radiation, longwave radiation, temperature, dewpoint, wind speed, and wind ... -
Optimal Irrigation Control Using Stochastic Cluster Point Processes for Rainfall Modelling and Forecasting
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resource Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1982-05)Optimal irrigation control is performed. The control accounts for the intraseasonal variation of the crop water requirements and for tie dynamics of soil moisture depletion process. The clustering dependence structure of ...
