Title: Development and Implementation of Snowmelt Simulations in an Augmented Reality Sandbox
Author: Ainsworth, Tyler
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Fluid mechanics
Description: In cold climates snowmelt runoff prediction is an important factor in the prediction of seasonal flooding and springtime water availability. Engineers study snowmelt and its effects on the environment, such as changes in stream flow, for this purp...

Title: EVALUATION OF CONSTRUCTION STORMWATER RUNOFF TURBIDITY: STATE-LEVEL TRENDS AND FORECAST OF FUTURE IMPACTS
Author: Manickavelu, Arunan
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Civil engineering, Environmental engineering, Water resources development--Management
Description: Construction and development projects alter an environment from its natural state into a man-made setting. Construction land use areas have been found to contribute the highest sediment loading to urban runoff when compared to loadings from other ...

Title: Evaluating the Role of Rain Garden Soils in Nutrient Processing of Stormwater Runoff in Charlotte, NC
Author: Starnes, Cody
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Environmental sciences
Description: As urbanization increases, Best Management Practices (BMPs) are used to reduce pollutants otherwise released to streams. Rain gardens are a type of BMPs that are vegetated depressions with highly permeable soil to treat urban runoff. These structu...
