Abstract In recent years, as a result of emerging renewable energy markets, several developed regions have already launched Real-Time Pricing (RTP) strategies for electricity markets. Establishing optimal pump operation for water companies in RTP electricity markets presents a challenging problem. In a RTP market, both positive and negative electricity...

Abstract Understanding coastal plane jets which occur when a body of water discharges into an ocean or a lake through a channel or outlet is important, since they play a significant role in sediment, nutrient, and pollutant exchange. This study investigates the nearfield of initially shallow, neutrally buoyant plane jets, bounded by a free surface...

Abstract Despite rises in drought frequency and human water demands, streamflow regime shifts from perennial to non-perennial have not been evaluated in many arid/semi-arid regions. To document shifts, we created a methodology that classifies streams as naturally perennial or non-perennial. Our classification used historical, minimally disturbed-quality...

Abstract In this paper, a model is presented for modeling saturated granular-liquid free-surface flows, in which the volume-averaged mixture bulk velocity is employed to derive the balance equations for the mass and momentum of mixture flow. Additionally, an evolution equation of the slip velocity between granular-and liquid constituents is derived...

Abstract This study developed and evaluated 30-m daily evapotranspiration (ET) estimates using the Priestley-Taylor Jet Propulsion Laboratory (PT-JPL) model with ECOSTRESS, Moderate MODIS, harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (HLS) imagery, ERA5-Land reanalysis, and eddy covariance measurements. The new daily 30-m ET showed significantly improved performance...
