It was named Ozero Glubokoye, meaning "deep lake", in 1809 by the Russian navigator Ivan Vasilyev. [3] Redoubt Lake is one of the largest meromictic lakes in North America. Its water is fresh to a depth of 330 ft (100 m), below which is a dense, saltwater layer. The lake's maximum depth is 870 ft (270 m) with a mean depth of 460 ft (140 m).
is the flood forecasting model, which can be a physically-based model, a data-driven model or a hybrid model depending on the approach chosen. In many operational systems forecasted precipitation is fed into rainfall-runoff and streamflow routing models to forecast flow rates and water levels for periods ranging from a few hours to days ahead ...
A "Pineapple Express" weather system, or atmospheric river storm, moves towards the U.S. west coast in a composite image from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) GOES-West ...
A strong atmospheric river storm is headed for Northern California this week, bringing heavy rain, mountain snow, high winds and the potential for flooding. California's about to get its first big ...
Most of the California coast is under a flood alert as torrential rain and mountain snow intensified over California Thursday morning, part of yet another atmospheric river storm, bringing a ...
The 2015 Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast, Version 3, or UCERF3, is the latest official earthquake rupture forecast (ERF) for the state of California, superseding UCERF2. It provides authoritative estimates of the likelihood and severity of potentially damaging earthquake ruptures in the long- and near-term.
Another atmospheric river is expected to bring heavy rain to most parts of California this week, raising concerns over flooding on the heels of an earlier system that broke daily rainfall records ...
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.
