Improve your water resources management with data-driven answers.
Hydrologic and hydraulic analyses are employed for hazard mitigation and forensic investigations of flooding events, for developing reservoir management plans, and for analyzing Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) floodplain mapping and impacts to infrastructure. These analyses are becoming increasingly relevant to Ä¢¹½tv's clients, who are developing plans to safeguard water supplies and availability and identify and mitigate costly hazards. Also, our technical approach to habitat management and restoration relies on these analyses.
Ä¢¹½tv has extensive experience addressing water issues and regulatory requirements, including rainfall-runoff and watershed analyses, flood protection, groundwater management, groundwater flow and transport simulations, dam and reservoir management, water supply development, water quality management, water distribution networks, and more. Ä¢¹½tv's expertise also includes evaluating sediment transport, geomorphology, and the impacts of subsidence on water flows in key infrastructure. Our scientists and engineers are focusing on the latest research describing the impacts of climate change and assisting our clients in understanding and responding to the resulting shifts in weather patterns, water availability, and water quality.
