Water temperature of Alpine streams in response to discharge and radiation
… study is to examine the relationships between water temperature, discharge and their response to shortwave radiation in a highly glacierised Alpine basin. Due to the high altitude, the Alps have one of the highest solar radiation budgets in Europe and demonstrated almost double the rate of …

General equation for predicting cooling tower approach temperatures at lower wetbulbs
Cooling tower approach temperature is the difference in leaving water temperature and entering air wet-bulb temperature. Cooling tower manufacturers describe the design capacity with water volumetric flow, entering water temperature, leaving water temperature, and entering air wet-bulb temperature. …

Modeling Water Temperatures and Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) Growth Potential Within a Complex Appalachian Riverscape
Climate change is expected to cause air temperatures to increase 2-5°C in the Appalachians throughout the 21st century. These air temperature increases will cause water temperatures to increase, and may negatively effect cold and cool water fish species. Brook trout are an important game fish …

Distribution, Temperature Selection, and Gonadal Development of Fishes In A Power Plant Cooling Reservoir
The distribution, temperature selection, and gonadal development of fishes in the Big Stone Power Plant cooling reservoir were examined from July 1982 through July 1983. A total of 46.8% of the fishes captured during this study were from the discharge area, while 31.8% and 21.4% of the fish …

Mathematical modeling of river water temperatures
… regression to the mathematical modeling of river water temperature is demonstrated. Consideration is also given to the problem of estimating thermal inputs to rivers from man-made sources such as electrical power plants. First, power spectral density techniques are used in the time-series analysis …
