Stream Hydrology Project Analyzing Watersheds and Drainage Basins
- 1. Stream Hydrology ENGR 2100-603, Dr. Yasmin Team 3: Kenzie Brock, Brianna Chavarria, and Sarah Van Brunt
- 2. Introduction to Hydrology ● The water cycle ○ Continuous movement of water ○ Humans and their effects on the water cycle ● Watershed and drainage ○ Watershed: Area of land that drains into a stream ○ Drainage area: Allows for water volume predictions http://extension.usu.edu/waterquality/educator-resources/lessonplans/wc/ http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/Missions/MississippiRiverFloodControl/MississippiRiverTribut aries/MississippiDrainageBasin.aspx
- 3. Motivation ● Our areas of study analyze water ○ Civil Engineering - the battle between infrastructure and nature ○ Biosystems Engineering - a sustainable means to find a solution, pollution ○ Ex. permeable pavement http://www.citymetric.com/skylines/permeable-paving-solution-icy-roads-and-flooding-496
- 4. Contour ● Rough draft imported ○ Traced over ● Index contours marked and bolded ● Peaks, depression, and saddle marked
- 5. Channel Line ● Made using Polyline ● High to low elevation ○ Through “V’s” in contour lines
- 6. Direction of Flow ● Qleaders along straight lengths ○ Arrow size changed ● Text rotated ○ Background mask on
- 7. Outlet ● 12 ft. diameter circles ● Text with background mask on
- 8. Main Channel ● Normal capacity of channel ● Channel lines offset by 5 ft. ● MUDST hatch ○ Scale of 80 ● Trimmed and extended
- 9. Bankfull ● Maximum capacity without overflowing ● Main channel lines offset by 5 ft. ● GRAVEL hatch ○ Scale of 100 ● Trimmed and extended
- 10. Watershed ● Grass Hatch ○ Scale 70 ● Polyline to outline
- 11. Station-Station Hydrograph ● 24 stations total across both waterways ● Represents water surface elevation of flow at a given time
- 12. Stations ● 24 stations along 2 channels ● Changed point size ● Made using the channel length and Measure tool
- 13. Station Angles ● Helps to establish Floodplain Boundary ● Created by making 90 degree lines off channel line and using the Station-Stage Hydrograph
- 14. Stations and Lines ● Shows each line for the floodplain with individual station label
- 15. Stations-No Contour ● Shows clearer image without contour
- 16. Floodplain ● Defined by the dry, flat area adjacent to the river, stream, or lake ● Determined via delineation ● Areas and lengths shown ● Hatch is GRASS ○ Scale of 70
- 17. Floodplain, Contours, and Station Lines ● Shows full image of channel ● Areas once more referenced
