The University of California Center for Hydrologic Modeling (UCCHM) is a campus-wide hydrologic modeling research center, located at the University of California, Irvine. The models and modeling frameworks developed at the center address the urgent environmental and health issues related to water availability, such as how water availability ...
The GSSHA model [3] [4] [5] was derived from the CASC2D hydrologic model. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] GSSHA represents a significant improvement on CASC2D in terms of capabilities, options, and numerical procedures. GSSHA includes dynamic time-stepping depending on stability criteria, different time steps for different numerical processes, and the ability to ...
The software provides tools to automate various basic and advanced delineations, calculations, and modeling processes. [9] It supports river hydraulic and storm drain models, lumped parameter, regression, 2D hydrologic modeling of watersheds, and can be used to model both water quantity and water quality.
Examples include validation against the wave tank experiment for the Okushiri 1995 tsunami, [11] wave tank runup experiments at University of Queensland, [12] the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami impact at Patong Beach, [13] comparison to other models, [14] [15] ANUGA was a late entry in the UK 2D model Benchmarking project in 2010 using version 1 ...
A hydrologic model is a simplification of a real-world system (e.g., surface water, soil water, wetland, groundwater, estuary) that aids in understanding, predicting, and managing water resources. Both the flow and quality of water are commonly studied using hydrologic models.
The scale of the model is 1:1000 on the horizontal axis and 1:100 on the vertical axis. The model operates at a time scale of 1:100. [6] The model is distorted by a factor of ten between the horizontal and vertical scales. The distortion is designed into the model to ensure a proper hydraulic flow over the tidal flats and shallows.
The SWMM (Storm Water Management Model), the HSPF (Hydrological Simulation Program – FORTRAN) and other modern American derivatives are successors to this early work. In Europe a favoured comprehensive model is the Système Hydrologique Européen (SHE), [11] [12] which has been succeeded by MIKE SHE and SHETRAN.
HydroGeoSphere (HGS) is a 3D control-volume finite element groundwater model, and is based on a rigorous conceptualization of the hydrologic system consisting of surface and subsurface flow regimes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The model is designed to take into account all key components of the hydrologic cycle .
