Mining Area Arsenic Risk Based Residential Cleanup
Using Bioavailability

By Carlton's Dr. Mark Montgomery, Ph.D. Remediation of Chlorinated and Recalcitrant Compounds, Fifth IInternational Conference in Monterey, California   May 22-25, 2006

Structure of Storms and Development of Design Storms Paper

By Carlton's Dr. David C. Curtis, Ph.D. Presenting findings on the spatial structure of storms from Florida and other locations in the United States. Example frequency distributions of storm parameters will be presented. In addition, information will be presented on how new large scale databases of radar rainfall estimates are being used to develop more realistic design storms.

ASCE Presentation

Evaluation of the spatial structure and development of design storms utilizing data from the Sacramento, California region. Presented to the American Society of Civil Engineers, Sacramento Chapter, May 2007. By Dr. David Curtis, Ph.D.

Economic Impacts of Rainfall Measurement Systems

Many rain gage networks are ill-designed, not only from a network perspective, but individual site selection as well. When gage networks are poorly conceived and poorly sited, the data are unreliable.

A weather generator for hydrological, ecological, and agricultural applications

This LINK presents a weather generator that allows simulation of hydrometeorological variables representative of a given geographic location: precipitation, total cloud cover, incoming shortwave radiation, air temperature, humidity, and wind speed. Link to: American Geophysical Union
