This paper presents a new grid-associated algorithm to improve the performance of a D8 algorithm based distributed hydrological model computation.The algorithm is based on the well known single-flow D8 algorithm of grid flow.This algorithm allocates calculation priorities according to the distance between the units and the outlet,then carries out the ergodic computations of the hydrological units according to the priority division.For the parallelized algorithm,a standard thread-level shared memory system for parallel programming(OpenMP-Open specifications for Multi Processing) was introduced,and the parallel coding was implemented in C lan-guage.A case study showed that the absolute speed-up ratio of the grid-associated algorithm is 1.64 over the original D8 algorithm,and the linear speed-up ratio of the parallel associated algorithm is 2.42 under 4 cores.The parallel grid-associated algorithm can be applied to a variety of research fields that use the grid method.

For pollution research with regard to urban surface runoff, most sampling strategies to date have focused on differences in land usage. With single land-use sampling, total surface runoff pollution effect cannot be evaluated unless every land usage spot is monitored. Through a new sampling strategy known as mixed stormwater sampling for a street community at discharge outlet adjacent to river, this study assessed the total urban surface runoff pollution effect caused by a variety of land uses and the pollutants washed off from the rain pipe system in the Futian River watershed in Shenzhen City of China. The water quality monitoring indices were COD (chemical oxygen demand), TSS (total suspend solid), TP (total phosphorus), TN (total nitrogen) and BOD (biochemical oxygen demand). The sums of total pollution loads discharged into the river for the four indices of COD, TSS, TN, and TP over all seven rainfall events were very different. The mathematical model for simulating total pollution loads was established from discharge outlet mixed stormwater sampling of total pollution loads on the basis of four parameters: rainfall intensity, total land area, impervious land area, and pervious land area. In order to treat surface runoff pollution, the values of MFF30 (mass first flush ratio) and FF30 (first 30% of runoff volume) can be considered as split-flow control criteria to obtain more effective and economical design of structural BMPs (best management practices) facilities.

Pollutant vertical mixing in stratified waters is a key factor that affects the vertical pollutant distribution in deep thermal-stratified reservoirs. This article presents an experimental study of the vertical mixing in thermal-stratified waters and an analysis of the retarded tracer jet diffusion in the thermocline layer. In the experiment, Reynolds number rapidly decreases from 104 to 10I. The stronger the stratification, the more seriously retarded the mixing will be. Some small tracer blobs may penetrate the thermocline layer into the hypolimnion layer even the main tracer cloud is retarded. According to its appearance, it can remain with salt-fingering, where the blobs are isolated away from the main cloud and mixed with the surround cold water in the hypolimnion layer. Therefore, the vertical distribution of the tracer under the thermocline layer would take larger values than expected. According to measurements, the isolated blob contents are accounted for about 5%-20% of the main tracer cloud, and are decreased with the increase of the stratification intensity. Results also show that the stronger the stratification, the smaller finger width would be. The averaged width of the incipient fingers is proportional to -0.3272 of the thermal Rayleigh number, Rat, in the turbulent jet fluid. power of the temperature gradient, AT/Az, or - 0.2823 power
It is well known that event mean concentrations(EMCs) cannot be determined by simple statistical averaging of ...
