  2. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

    Impervious concrete pavers installed with ample void space between each paver function in the same way as pervious concrete pavers as they enable stormwater to drain into the voids between each paver, either filled with coarse aggregate or vegetation, to a stone and/or soil base layer for on-site infiltration and filtering.

  3. Standard step method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Step_Method

    It uses a combination of the energy, momentum, and continuity equations to determine water depth with a given a friction slope (), channel slope (), channel geometry, and also a given flow rate. In practice, this technique is widely used through the computer program HEC-RAS , developed by the US Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering ...

  4. Global meteoric water line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_meteoric_water_line

    A meteoric water line can be calculated for a given area, named as local meteoric water line (LMWL), and used as a baseline within that area. Local meteoric water line can differ from the global meteoric water line in slope and intercept. Such deviated slope and intercept is a result largely from humidity.

  5. Water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle

    The ocean plays a key role in the water cycle as it is the source of 86% of global evaporation. [2] The water cycle involves the exchange of energy, which leads to temperature changes. When water evaporates, it takes up energy from its surroundings and cools the environment. When it condenses, it releases energy and warms the environment.

  6. Water cycle management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle_management

    The water cycle including human activities. Water cycle management is a multidisciplinary approach relating to all planning, developmental, operational and tactical decisions to influence the water cycle. Most importantly water cycle management is used to ensure availability of clean water for designated use, and to ensure safe release of ...

  7. Runoff (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runoff_(hydrology)

    The water cycle (or hydrologic cycle or hydrological cycle) is a biogeochemical cycle that involves the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time. However, the partitioning of the water into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, salt water and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_(graph_theory)

    Cycle graph, a graph that consists of a single cycle; Chordal graph, a graph in which every induced cycle is a triangle; Directed acyclic graph, a directed graph with no directed cycles; Forest, a cycle-free graph; Line perfect graph, a graph in which every odd cycle is a triangle; Perfect graph, a graph with no induced cycles or their ...

  9. Cycle graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_graph

    A directed cycle graph of length 8. A directed cycle graph is a directed version of a cycle graph, with all the edges being oriented in the same direction. In a directed graph, a set of edges which contains at least one edge (or arc) from each directed cycle is called a feedback arc set.
