According to the PUC, “the proposed route must be established as the best out of other alternatives, considering safety, environment impacts, impacts on scenic and historic sights, existing land use, soil and sedimentation, plant and wildlife habitats, terrain, hydrology and landscape.” The application must ...

... in the process to remove the largest remaining dam on the Cuyahoga River. The 60-foot-tall Gorge Dam in Cuyahoga Falls once powered trolley cars in Akron. The park's head of natural resources management, Mike Johnson, says the $70,000 hydrology study will model the effect of a free-flowing river.

Although he's in the geography department, Ficklin is a physical scientist and much of his research focuses on how climate changes affect the hydrologic cycle, watershed hydrology, surface water, groundwater and water quality modeling and drought modeling assessment. "Water is important for a lot of ...

He has been the lead soil scientist on a team that is conceptualizing a new approach to addressing broad-scale questions about how plants, soils, hydrology and climate interact. The team's interdisciplinary, synthetic approach — referred to as the "critical zone approach" — brings together biology, soil ...

This bridge goes a long way in reducing risk associated with major hydrology hazards and brings us peace of mind," Major General J.T. Thomson, III, III Corps Deputy Commanding General said. The new bridge, a $9.7 million dollar endeavor, allows all weather 24/7 access for the Army and for the public ...

“This winter has been very dry in Northern and Central California, and though conditions have improved during March, the dynamics of the hydrology necessitated a conservative approach to the initial allocations,” said Jeff Rieker, CVP operations manager. “We are monitoring the situation closely.

Visakhapatnam: The 35th and 36th annual convention of Association of Hydrologists of India (AHI) and a national seminar on 'Hydrology' with a colloquium on 'Nature based solution to water challenges' was inaugurated on Thursday at Andhra University to mark the World Water Day. Delivering the ...

Dick said the project potentially threatens the hydrology of the basin and “poses the threat of destruction of already diminishing wetlands.” She also agreed with environmental groups that centuries-old “legacy” trees can't be replaced once they're cut down. Bayou Bridge lawyers claimed the sudden halt in ...

When her mother saw a newspaper advert for a multidisciplinary hydrology degree in Freiburg, Proemse packed her bags. It's a field that's taken her to extreme places across the world. During her master's degree, she jetted to California to work at the United States Geological Survey, and then moved to ...

The use of environmental isotopes is a well-established and reliable tool for urban hydrology, as isotopes can provide important information to water managers for assessing sources and interactions between water bodies. The provision of water for domestic supply in urban areas is complex and usually ...

MORGANTOWN — West Virginia University's Davis College of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Design hosted a workshop to show how easy and cheap it can be to monitor water and soil. Within the college's Agricultural Sciences Building, the university's Mountain Hydrology Laboratory and the Institute ...

Todd Rasmussen does more than hydrology. He works to make change through his research, teaching and outreach with the community. He said he has been fascinated with water and its movement since he was a child growing up in northern California and has turned his love into a career as well as an ...

He is a professor in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, with research and teaching interests in applied hydrology, environmental education and glacial geology. His teaching and mentoring have been recognized by Purdue's top university awards. He is a prolific author whose ...

Mallory McGregor, 7, views marine organisms in the Life's Innovations exhibit Friday at the new Eureka! McConnell Science Museum, 1400 N. Seventh St., which recently relocated to the campus of Colorado Mesa University. Nearly 150 new or updated exhibits showcase math, science, technology and art.

Pressure from the 600,000 inhabitants in Utah Lake's watershed has taken a serious toll on its hydrology, ecology and overall health. Perhaps just as troubling is the declining symbolic health of Utah Lake. What Utah Lake means to us is changing, and its status as a defining natural landmark appears to be ...

Since the 1990s, efforts to restore the hydrology and ecology of Utah Lake have made real progress. Most invasive carp have been removed, the native June sucker are recovering and the sustaining water flow and deltas of the Provo and Spanish Fork rivers are being restored. These citizen- and state-led ...

The Bureau of Reclamation's Klamath Basin Area Office is hosting a hydrology meeting from 1-3 p.m. on Friday in the Exhibit No. 2 building at the Klamath County Fairgrounds, where officials will talk about the March 1 forecast and planned next steps in the face of the 2018 water year. Speakers will include: ...

Hydrology is an inexact science but one that is rather important for the management of water resources, freshwater and terrestrial habitats, and environmental quality. Good management generally requires model predictions of future conditions to inform decisions. We know that such models are necessarily ...

InterMET Asia is a unique marketplace bringing together the global weather and climate industry with those in the public and private sectors seeking to mitigate and manage the risks of extreme weather and climate change, and to understand the opportunities. This year it will take place in Singapore on ...

Finally, the IGEA-informed remotely sensed discharge data will be used to calibrate an open source global hydrology model, integrating the other components of this project to reach a fuller understanding of the entire Arctic system achieved through improved process-based understanding of Arctic rivers, ...
