Book Description
This report is primarily concerned with intensive precipitation falling as rain over the central part of the Mississippi River Basin during the months of January through July. Other precipitation in the Basin is relatively ineffective in producing floods on the main stem. Snow melt is not negligible in Mississippi floods but has never been the primary cause of a historical Lower Mississippi flood. Major floods are not experienced from August to December because the ground, dried during the summer, has an accumulated capacity to soak up water; any hypothetical flood between August and December would be overshadowed for design purposes by a hypothetical flood of the same likelihood of occurrence between January and July. The latter would be drastically more severe.

Book Description
This is the second of the two final reports on the meteorological findings. The present report covers the meteorological aspects of the hypothetical floods that evolved from a number of conferences between the Office of Chief of Engineers, the Mississippi River Commission, and the Weather Bureau, and which have been adopted by the Corps of Engineers as the current basis for design in the Lower Mississippi River Basin.

ISBN: 3030289060
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
This book is the standard reference based on roughly 20 years of research on atmospheric rivers, emphasizing progress made on key research and applications questions and remaining knowledge gaps. The book presents the history of atmospheric-rivers research, the current state of scientific knowledge, tools, and policy-relevant (science-informed) problems that lend themselves to real-world application of the research—and how the topic fits into larger national and global contexts. This book is written by a global team of authors who have conducted and published the majority of critical research on atmospheric rivers over the past years. The book is intended to benefit practitioners in the fields of meteorology, hydrology and related disciplines, including students as well as senior researchers.
