A field‐scale infiltration model accounting for spatial heterogeneity of rainfall and soil saturated hydraulic conductivity     

Renato Morbidelli  Corrado Corradini  Rao S. Govindaraju 《水文研究》2006,20(7):1465-1481

This study first explores the role of spatial heterogeneity, in both the saturated hydraulic conductivity K_s and rainfall intensity r, on the integrated hydrological response of a natural slope. On this basis, a mathematical model for estimating the expected areal‐average infiltration is then formulated. Both K_s and r are considered as random variables with assessed probability density functions. The model relies upon a semi‐analytical component, which describes the directly infiltrated rainfall, and an empirical component, which accounts further for the infiltration of surface water running downslope into pervious soils (the run‐on effect). Monte Carlo simulations over a clay loam soil and a sandy loam soil were performed for constructing the ensemble averages of field‐scale infiltration used for model validation. The model produced very accurate estimates of the expected field‐scale infiltration rate, as well as of the outflow generated by significant rainfall events. Furthermore, the two model components were found to interact appropriately for different weights of the two infiltration mechanisms involved. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

A kinematic‐wave‐based distributed watershed model using FEM,GIS and remotely sensed data

For the appropriate management of water resources in a watershed, it is essential to calculate the time distribution of runoff for the given rainfall event. In this paper, a kinematic‐wave‐based distributed watershed model using finite element method (FEM), geographical information systems (GIS) and remote‐sensing‐based approach is presented for the runoff simulation of small watersheds. The kinematic wave equations are solved using FEM for overland and channel flow to generate runoff at the outlet of the watershed concerned. The interception loss is calculated by an empirical model based on leaf area index (LAI). The Green‐Ampt Mein Larson (GAML) model is used for the estimation of infiltration. Remotely sensed data has been used to extract land use (LU)/land cover (LC). GIS have been used to prepare finite element grid and input files such as Manning's roughness and slope. The developed overland flow model has been checked with an analytical solution for a hypothetical watershed. The model has been applied to a gauged watershed and an ungauged watershed. From the results, it is seen that the model is able to simulate the hydrographs reasonably well. A sensitivity analysis of the model is carried out with the calibrated infiltration parameters, overland flow Manning's roughness, channel flow Manning's roughness, time step and grid size. The present model is useful in predicting the hydrograph in small, ungauged watersheds. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

X-ray spectroscopy of Cygnus X-3     

M. Choudhury  A. R. Rao 《Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy》2002,23(1-2):39-43

We have analysed the X-ray spectra of the highly variable X-ray source Cygnus X-3 over a wide energy range from 5 keV to 150 keV using data selected from the RXTE archives. Separate analysis of the low and hard states show the presence of a hard powerlaw tail in both the states. Here we present the result of the wide band spectral study of the source.  相似文献   

'Clean' spectral analysis of long-term sea-level changes     

J.G. Negi  R.K. Tiwari  K.N.N. Rao 《地学学报》1990,2(2):138-141

A new ‘clean’ spectral technique has been applied, for the first time, to analyse a record of long-term sea-level fluctuation during the last 200 million year (Myr). The technique is based on a one dimensional complex deconvolution algorithm and removes the effects of the data sampling as well as the artifacts arising from the choice of data window. The analysis reveals a dominant periodicity of 33 Myr in the sea-level variations. This periodicity compares well with the known half-period of the Sun's oscillation perpendicular to the galactic plane. Interestingly, a 33 Myr periodicity can also be correlated with the reported mass extinction cycles and other geological periodicities. The results suggest galactic forcing as a possible driving mechanism for quasi-periodic terrestrial processes.  相似文献   

VV Orionis – improved elements     

M. B. K. Sarma  P. Vivekananda Rao 《Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy》1995,16(3-4):407-424

TheUBV light curves obtained by Duerbeck (1975) andHa (wide) and Ha (narrow) light curves obtained by Chambliss & Davan (1987) of the detached eclipsing binary VV Orionis (VV Ori) were analysed using the Wilson-Devinney method fixing the two parametersT _h (25,000 K) and q(0.4172), resulting in the following absolute elements:A = 13.605 ± 0.03 LR_⊙,R _h = 5.03 ±0.03R _⊙, R_c = 2.43 ±0.02R _⊙,M _bol,h = -5.18 ± 0.11,M _bol,c = -1.54 ± 0.06,m _h =10.81 + 0.42m _⊙ andm _c = 4.51 ± 0.41m _⊙. The de-reddened colours obtained from applying the reddening corrections ofE(B-V) = 0^m.05 andE(U-B) = O ^m .04, and the derived temperatures of the components, gave spectral types ofB 1.5V for the primary and 54-5V with anUV excess of 0 ^m ·3 for the secondary component. A comparison of the logL and logT _e of the components with the observed ZAMS shows the primary component to be a little above and the secondary component to be a little below/or on the ZAMS. A comparison of the properties of the components of VV Ori and a few other detached systems with the normal stars in the logL, logR and logT _e versus logm planes, indicated a need for either a readjustment of the scales of the above parameters or modifications in the theoretical models. From the position of the components on the evolutionary tracks of Pop I composition computed by Schaller et al. (1992) it is noticed that while the primary component of W Ori had slightly evolved along the main-sequence, its secondary is still unevolved. The age of VV Ori is found to be 10 ± 1 million years and it is at a distance of 368 ± 10 pc.  相似文献

Field isotope investigations and numerical simulation of lake hydrodynamics     

J. S. R. Murthy  U. Saravana Kumar  S. V. Navada  S. M. Rao 《水文研究》2002,16(9):1703-1723

A three‐dimensional, numerical free‐surface‐flow simulation model is developed to investigate hydrodynamics of a lake and the predictive capabilities of the numerical model are validated by comparing them with field results obtained from Lake Naini, Uttar Pradesh, using environmental isotope (δ¹⁸O, δD and ³H) techniques. This has been carried out in order to understand the hydrodynamics of a lake (i.e. circulations, mixing and transport of water within the lake). Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Methane Emission Pattern of Indian Rice-Ecosystems     

K. R. Manjunath  Sushma Panigrahy  T. K. Adhya  V. Beri  K. V. Rao  J. S. Parihar 《Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing》2011,39(3):307-313

The rice land is linked to the climate change due to its methane emission potential. The systems of growing rice and associated soil and crop management practices that have evolved are varied and complex. However, from the methane emission point of view, water regime is a crucial parameter. According to IPCC guidelines the rice ecosystem need to be categorized into four strata for methane emission study. The remote sensing based stratification map previously developed was used for in-situ weekly/monthly measurements of methane emission from the representative ecosystems, samples were collected and analysed using gas chromatography following the IPCC standards for three consecutive years; 2003, 2004 and 2005. This paper highlights the results of methane emission measurement and pattern from rice lands of India based on in-situ measurements. The CH₄ emission pattern of irrigated crop in dry season showed a steady increase in the beginning which peaks during flowering stage, decreasing gradually thereafter. The results were consistent for different varieties and across the years. The emission pattern of irrigated wet season crop showed two peaks. The emission pattern also showed the influence of crop variety as well as year (of observation). The mean emission coefficient derived from all categories and all samples (n = 471) weighted for the Indian rice crop was 74.05 + 43.28 kg/ha.  相似文献
