Detection of breaking waves using X-band pulse radar in the nearshore region
An X-band pulsed Doppler microwave radar has been used to determine the characteristics of breaking waves. Field experiments were conducted at the Shuang-Si estuary in the north of Taiwan in the winter of 2005...

Two new characteristic parameters for runoff computation
A method capable of estimating the hydrograph from a prescribed storm for a practical mild slope upstream catchment is proposed. This method makes use of two new characteristic parameters, τ andS, in conjunction ...

Overland flow computation with the characteristics method for a kinematic catchment model
This paper computes the depth profile and hydrograph for an overland flow on a slope under fixed rainfall intensity. The kinematic wave equation is used as the governing equation and solved by the method of ch...
