Surface Ponding
Normally in flow routing, when the flow into a junction exceeds the capacity of the system to transport it further downstream, the excess volume overflows the system and is lost. An option exists to have instead the excess volume be stored atop the junction, in a ponded … Read the rest

Unit Hydrographs (UHs) estimate rainfall-dependent inflow/infiltration (RDII) into a sewer system. A UH set contains up to three such hydrographs, one for a short-term response, one for an intermediate-term response, and one for a long-term response. A UH group can have up to 12 UH sets, … Read the rest
| Introducing EPA SWMM5 |
The EPA Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) is a dynamic rainfall-runoff simulation model used for single event or long-term (continuous) simulation of runoff quantity and quality from primarily urban areas. The runoff component of SWMM operates on a collection of subcatchment areas that receive precipitation and generate … Read the rest
| Snowmelt |
Snowmelt parameters are climatic variables that apply across the entire study area when simulating snowfall and snowmelt. They include:
| · | the air temperature at which precipitation falls as snow |
| · | heat exchange properties of the snow surface |
| · | study area elevation, latitude, and longitude correction. |
