  2. Drainage density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_density

    Another impact on the hydrograph that drainage density has is a steeper falling limb following the storm event due to its impact on both overland flow and baseflow. [7] [10] The falling limb occurs after the peak of the hydrograph curve and is when overland flow is decreasing back to ambient levels. In higher drainage systems, the overland flow ...

  3. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A stream hydrograph is commonly determining the influence of different hydrologic processes on discharge from the subject catchment. Because the timing, magnitude, and duration of groundwater return flow differs so greatly from that of direct runoff, separating and understanding the influence of these distinct processes is key to analyzing and simulating the likely hydrologic effects of ...

  4. Runoff model (reservoir) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runoff_model_(reservoir)

    Otherwise, the factor A can be determined from a data record of rainfall and runoff using the method explained below under non-linear reservoir. With this method the reservoir can be used as a black box model. Conversions 1 mm/day corresponds to 10 m 3 /day per ha of the watershed 1 L/s per ha corresponds to 8.64 mm/day or 86.4 m 3 /day per ha

  5. Runoff curve number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runoff_curve_number

    The curve number method was developed by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, which was formerly called the Soil Conservation Service or SCS — the number is still popularly known as a "SCS runoff curve number" in the literature.

  6. Routing (hydrology) - Wikipedia

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

    Flood routing is a procedure to determine the time and magnitude of flow (i.e., the flow hydrograph) at a point on a watercourse from known or assumed hydrographs at one or more points upstream. The procedure is specifically known as Flood routing, if the flow is a flood. [14] [15] After Routing, the peak gets attenuated & a time lag is ...

  7. Group 4 compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_4_compression

    CCITT Group 4 compression, also referred to as G4 or Modified Modified READ (MMR), is a lossless method of image compression used in Group 4 fax machines defined in the ITU-T T.6 fax standard. It is only used for bitonal (black-and-white) images.

  8. MacCormack method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacCormack_method

    In computational fluid dynamics, the MacCormack method (/məˈkɔːrmæk ˈmɛθəd/) is a widely used discretization scheme for the numerical solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. This second-order finite difference method was introduced by Robert W. MacCormack in 1969. [ 1 ]

  9. Projection method (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_method_(fluid...

    In computational fluid dynamics, the projection method, also called Chorin's projection method, is an effective means of numerically solving time-dependent incompressible fluid-flow problems. It was originally introduced by Alexandre Chorin in 1967 [ 1 ] [ 2 ] as an efficient means of solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations .
