Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of landfilled waste. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kazimoglu, Y. K., McDougall, J., & Pyrah, I. (2006, April). Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of landfilled waste. Presented at Fourth International Conference on Unsaturated Soils, Carefree, Arizona, USA

Unsaturated flow modelling of landfill hydraulics is a potentially valuable tool for the prediction of leachate discharge rates, design of leachate control systems and simulation of biodegradation in engineered landfills. Such an approach requires in... Read More about Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of landfilled waste..

Improved quality control procedures and models for solar radiation using a world-wide database. (2006)
Thesis
Younes, S. Improved quality control procedures and models for solar radiation using a world-wide database. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4282

This thesis deals with- various aspects of broadband horizontal solar
irradiance. Quality control of measured datasets are identified and analysed. It
was found that solar irradiance datasets may contain significant errors. These
sources of errors... Read More about Improved quality control procedures and models for solar radiation using a world-wide database..
