Progress report on the Worldwide Earthquake Risk Management (WWERM) Program Progress report on the Worldwide Earthquake Risk Management (WWERM) Program
Considerable progress has been made in the Worldwide Earthquake Risk Management (WWERM) Program since its initiation in late 1989 as a cooperative program of the Agency for International Development (AID), Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA), and the U.S. Geological Survey. Probabilistic peak acceleration and peak Modified Mercalli intensity (MMI) maps have been prepared...

Public-domain-software solution to data-access problems for numerical modelers Public-domain-software solution to data-access problems for numerical modelers
Unidata's network Common Data Form, netCDF, provides users with an efficient set of software for scientific-data-storage, retrieval, and manipulation. The netCDF file format is machine-independent, direct-access, self-describing, and in the public domain, thereby alleviating many problems associated with accessing output from large hydrodynamic models. NetCDF has programming interfaces...

Remote sensing of water clarity and suspended sediments in coastal waters Remote sensing of water clarity and suspended sediments in coastal waters
Processing of data for estimation of suspended sediment concentrations and water clarity in turbid coastal water requires three components: (1) correction of raw data to water reflectance; (2) establishment of appropriate general models relating reflectance characteristics to materials in the water; and (3) determination of the coefficients of the models appropriate for the area under...

Solution of the advection-dispersion equation by a finite-volume eulerian-lagrangian local adjoint method Solution of the advection-dispersion equation by a finite-volume eulerian-lagrangian local adjoint method
A finite-volume Eulerian-Lagrangian local adjoint method for solution of the advection-dispersion equation is developed and discussed. The method is mass conservative and can solve advection-dominated ground-water solute-transport problems accurately and efficiently. An integrated finite-difference approach is used in the method. A key component of the method is that the integral...
