(Location: IWMI-HQ Call no: PER Record No: H02829)
A model of social cost minimizing spillway capacity for dams is constructed using (1) the estimated distribution of peak flows from historical data, (2) the estimated relationship between spillway capacity and cost, and (3) a characterization of downstream flood damage from dam failure. Net social cost is the sum of construction costs and expected flood damage. This model is applied to data for the Rio Grande River at Embudo, New Mexico. Minimum social cost is attained at a spillway capacity much smaller than that needed to handle a probably maximum flood.

A study was conducted to assess atrazine transport and distribution in a field soil in relation to four levels of early-season irrigation, with the overall objective of developing water management strategies to minimize the potential for atrazine pollution of water resources. The specific objective was to use the measured atrazine data to evaluate and compare the performance of two conceptually different contaminant transport models, IRRSCHM and LEACHP. The measured atrazine transport and distribution in soil profiles were directly related to levels of early-season and seasonal irrigation water. Generally, the measured and predicted atrazine data agreed within one order of magnitude, suggesting that both models gave reasonably good approximation of measured soil atrazine. IRRSCHM, a field-capacity and mixing-cell management oriented model, performed better than LEACHP, a classical deterministic model that uses Richard's and Convection-Dispersion Equations for simulating water and pesticide dynamics.
