The software incorporates a user interface for building, running and viewing the results of models, including a GIS map interface. The software has been independently benchmarked [ 1 ] by the Environment Agency and is used extensively [ 2 ] to undertake modelling of flood risk, [ 3 ] develop flood risk management schemes and provide flood ...
ANUGA Hydro [3] is a free and open source software tool for hydrodynamic modelling, suitable for predicting the consequences of hydrological disasters such as riverine flooding, storm surges and tsunamis. For example, ANUGA can be used to create predicted inundation maps based on hypothetical tsunami or flood scenarios. The ANUGA name without ...
A series of terraces along a river. The oldest terraces (T1) are higher standing than the younger terraces (T3). The present floodplain (T4) will soon become the youngest terrace surface as the river incises. Terraces can be formed in many ways and in several geologic and environmental settings. By studying the size, shape, and age of terraces ...

It is a simple to use software utility that allows future climate change projections to be incorporated into the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM). SWMM was recently updated to accept a set of monthly adjustment factors for each of these time series that could represent the impact of future changes in climatic conditions.
Specialized software may also be used to solve sets of equations using a graphical user interface and complex code, such that the solutions are obtained relatively rapidly and the program may be operated by a layperson or an end user without a deep knowledge of the system.
As of this writing, Taco Bell is testing chicken nuggets for a limited time, McDonald’s is offering 10 McNuggets for $1, and chicken sandwiches are overshadowing burgers at the world’s biggest ...
The result is called the Sundborg diagram, or the Hjulström-Sundborg Diagram, in the academic literature. This curve dates back to early 20th century research on river geomorphology and has no more than a historical value nowadays, although its simplicity is still attractive.
