海绵城市设施的降雨径流和污染负荷频谱分析方法

海绵城市设施效果目前主要用年径流总量控制率和年径流污染物总量削减率评价,它们通过对事件数据进行累加得到.为直接分析事件,建立了适用于降雨、径流和污染事件的频谱分析方法 .在方法例证研究中,年径流总量控制率显示海绵设施能够完全还原自然径流总量,最佳规模为201 m³.而径流频谱显示,与自然对照相比,海绵设施截留小雨(导致径流总频次减少)、对大雨控制不足,只在中雨下接近自然径流,它不能还原自然径流事件,通过计算频谱相似度得到的最大修复程度为0.66,最佳规模为238 m³.污染负荷频谱提供了大量细节信息,例如,没有初雨池的弃流器只在1.5～8.0 kg·hm^-2·d^-1的排污量范围内污染削减效果较好,在其他情况下效果较差.降雨频谱和年径流总量控制率的比较表明,频谱不会对原始数据做任何改变,只原样地呈现事件累积频率分布,其表征水文特征的真实性更高.

为明晰蓄水期降雨对三峡库区香溪河支流主要藻种原位生长的影响因素,本文在三峡水库降雨前后采用原位培养装置(培养笼)对铜绿微囊藻、小球藻和栅藻生物量变化特征进行原位培养实验.结果表明:①研究期间(2017年10月4～18日)降雨期与非降雨期水动力条件存在显著性差异(ANOVA,P 0. 05),降雨期间3种主要藻种Chl-a总量、比生长速率均显著小于非降雨期(ANOVA,P 0. 05),表明降雨对藻类生长起一定的抑制作用;相关分析结果指出,表征垂向掺混的4个水动力参数与3种藻种比生长速率呈显著/极显著负相关关系,表明水动力条件中剪切力τ、垂向紊流黏性系数Vr和垂向紊流扩散系数Vt的改变是导致藻类迅速衰亡的关键因素;②降雨前培养装置内混合层深度较低(1～2 m),降雨后(10月10～18日)混合层深度明显上升(大于5 m),同时降雨期叶绿素a(Chl-a)浓度显著低于非降雨期(ANOVA,P 0. 05).相关分析结果表明,光混比与3种藻种的比生长速率呈显著/极显著正相关,表明降雨导致水体垂向扰动增强,混合层不断扩大,打破了水体原有的水温分层从而抑制藻类的生长增殖;③降雨量、水温、光照强度、总氮(TN)和溶解性总氮(DTN)在降雨期与非降雨期均存在显著差异(ANOVA,P 0. 05),相关分析表明,降雨带来降雨量、水温、光照强度、总氮(TN)和溶解性总氮(DTN)改变是影响3种主要藻种比生长速率的关键环境参数.     

苏州城市化进程对降雨特征影响分析

城市化的发展过程中,城市下垫面的改变以及人类的生产生活共同作用使大气边界层的特性发生变化,从而影响了城市地区的降雨。位于太湖流域平原水网地区的苏州城市化发展迅速。在分析了苏州城市化发展进程的特点及1953~2000年降雨时间序列特征基础上,采用同时期城区（苏州站）与郊区（望亭站）雨量横向对比、城市化发展不同时期同一站雨量纵向对比的方法,研究了城市化对该地区降雨量、降雨年内分配、降雨发生次数等的影响。通过研究发现：城市化对年雨量、汛期雨量和最大日雨量都有不同程度的增加作用,其中对最大日雨量的影响最显著;受城市化影响,降雨年内分配有集中的趋势;城市化使不同类型降雨发生次数均增加,其中对暴雨发生次数的影响最大。

Impact of Changing Climate and Land Cover on Flood Magnitudes in the Delaware River Basin,USA

Changing climate and land cover are expected to impact flood hydrology in the Delaware River Basin over the 21st Century. HEC‐HMS models (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center‐Hydrologic Modeling System) were developed for five case study watersheds selected to represent a range of scale, soil types, climate, and land cover. Model results indicate that climate change alone could affect peak flood discharges by ?6% to +58% a wide range that reflects regional variation in projected rainfall and snowmelt and local watershed conditions. Land cover changes could increase peak flood discharges up to 10% in four of the five watersheds. In those watersheds, the combination of climate and land cover change increase modeled peak flood discharges by up to 66% and runoff volumes by up to 44%. Precipitation projections are a key source of uncertainty, but there is a high likelihood of greater precipitation falling on a more urbanized landscape that produces larger floods. The influence of climate and land cover changes on flood hydrology for the modeled watersheds varies according to future time period, climate scenario, watershed land cover and soil conditions, and flood frequency. The impacts of climate change alone are typically greater than land cover change but there is substantial geographic variation, with urbanization the greater influence on some small, developing watersheds.     

ACCOUNTING FOR DISCREPANCIES IN PAN EVAPORATION CALCULATIONS1

ABSTRACT: Four experiments were made to document and account for differences in evaporation data that were calculated using pans equipped with float-activated recorders and pans with hook gauge/rain gauge instrumentation. Paired in-pan comparisons indicated that evaporation differences were not due to the technique of measuring water level within the pan. Also, the recorder float-lag did not account for the differences. By sampling rainfall events, it was found that evaporation pans and standard (8 in. orifice) rain gauges record significantly different amounts of rain, which results in differences in calculated evaporation on rainy days. Monitoring networks with evaporation pans should have uniform instrumentation that accurately records rainfall into the pans for consistent results.     

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS ON THE RANDOMNESS OF ANNUAL MAXIMUM DAILY RAINFALL1

ABSTRACT: Annual maximum daily rainfall data from nine stations throughout the southern slopes of the Eastern Italian Alps with record length of 67–68 years have been analyzed with the aim of verifying if their internal structure justifies the assumption of independence and identical distribution, or the “White noise hypothesis.” The approach is to consider the hypothesis H₀ of white noise as the intersection of several sub-hypotheses, each concerning one of the characteristics of a white noise process. To this end the nine series were subjected to various statistical tests regarding randomness, independence, change-points, and predictability. The results are examined first individually and then globally. They indicate that in eight of the nine considered time series the “white noise hypothesis” was rejected.     

INFILTRATION EVALUATION OF FOUR MECHANICAL RAINFALL SIMULATION TECHNIQUES IN SIERRA NEVADA WATERSHEDS1

ABSTRACT: Little quantitative site-specific infiltration, runoff and sediment transport data for Tahoe Basin soils under varying storm events or stage of development are available. Modular (Ml), F-type (M2), Impact nozzle (M3), and Impact-Fan nozzle (M4) rainfall simulators were evaluated as to their practicality and ability to characterize infiltration for the Cagwin Soil Series within the Tahoe Basin. Three slope (0–15,15–30, >30%) and four plot conditions (natural with duff [P1], natural without duff [P2], disturbed without duff [P3], and disturbed with duff [P4]) were studied. The measured data were incorporated into a modified Philip's infiltration model and multiple non-linear regression analyses were used to examine relationships between method, slope, plot condition, and infiltration characteristics.^t Simulation methods Ml and M4 produced statistically similar (P=0.01) infiltration data, as did M2 and M3 which produced lower infiltration rates. All were found suitable for use in Sierra Nevada watersheds. Ml was considered most practical. Slope had negligible effect on infiltration. The plot condition was found to significantly influence infiltration, and the effect of each plot condition was significantly different. Final infiltration rates ranged from 4.7 to 6.2 cm/hr. Thus, the Cagwin soil demonstrated moderate to high infiltration rates even when exposed to extreme storm conditions (8–10 cm/hr).     

HYDROLOGIC RESPONSES OF AN AGRICULTURAL WATERSHED TO VARIOUS HYDROLOGIC AND MANAGEMENT CONDITIONS1

ABSTRACT: The hydrologic responses from an agricultural watershed in southeast Nebraska were investigated under an array of physiographic, hydrologic, meteorologic, and management conditions. For analytical purposes, the hydrologic responses were narrowed to include only runoff and sediment yield. The study was performed by utilizing the ANSWERS (Areal Nonpoint Source Watershed Environment Response Simulation) hydrologic-simulation model. Results of this study indicate that, generally, nonstructural (agronomic) Best Management Practices (BMPs) have a more significant impact in controlling erosion and nonpoint-source pollution than structurally oriented BMPs. The percentage of reduction in average soil loss as a result of changing tilage systems from conventional to chisel plow was in the mid-40s. The corresponding percentages of reduction in sediment yield from the watershed under minimum tillage and no-till systems were in the mid-60s and mid-80s, respectively. The impact of these management strategies on runoff varied considerably. That is primarily based on the watershed's antecedent soil moisture condition, land use, and the growth stage of crops. Generally, an intense, short, thunderstorm type of rainfall event had more relative impact on runoff, and therefore sediment yield than a long, gentle, and steady event.
