Miniature of Flood protection and management for the Lower Illinois River system, Phase III : real-time simulation of floods with managed LDD storage options

Flood protection and management for the Lower Illinois River system, Phase III : real-time simulation of floods with managed LDD storage options

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

This report documents the structure and the use of an improved version of the Windows-based interface of the unsteady flow model, UNET. This interface was developed by the Illinois State Water Survey for the Office of Water Resources, Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The current version of the interface program can download historic, real-time, and forecasted stage and flow data from U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and National Weather Service Web sites interactively. These data can be used to update an existing Data Storage System (DSS) database or to create new ones. The interface allows the user to create or update gaging station information in a Microsoft Access database. The user can create project files to run the UNET model for historic, design, real-time, and forecasted flood events. The graphing function allows plotting of single and multiple hydrographs, or stage profiles of a single reach and multiple reaches. The utility tools include screen captures, document editing, and DSS file editing. This interface program uses the original UNET generic geometry and boundary condition files to maintain the same level of accuracy as the UNET model, but it also allows the user to change some of the parameters, such as, the simulation time interval, time windows, and numerical Corant number, and etc., in the BC file. Real-time simulation of a flood event simulates flood stage profiles using real-time stage and flow data downloaded from related Web sites. Locations and magnitudes of levee overtopping will be displayed for the lower Illinois River should these occur. The interface program lets the user modify parameters to simulate simple levee failure or two types of complicated embankment failures, overtopping and piping. Simulations also can be performed using the modified levee information, such as breaches or revised crest elevations. The change of water surface elevation induced by modifying levees can be compared with another simulation graphically and also in table format. Stage profiles from all simulations can be plotted together with levee heights on both sides of the channel along the Lower Illinois River to visually show the impacts of particular floods.

Evaluation of the accuracy of radar precipitation for use in flow forecasting for the Fox Chain of Lakes.

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

This study evaluated the use of radar-derived daily precipitation values for estimating watershed precipitation in the Fox River watershed in northeastern Illinois and southeastern Wisconsin, and for the potential use in preparing real-time streamflow forecasts for the Fox River. Two types of radar-derived precipitation estimates based on data from the National Weather Service (NWS) WSR-88D radar network were evaluated. These estimates were developed using a 4-km grid resolution and computed using: 1) radar data alone and 2) composite or multi-sensor precipitation estimate based on radar data and real-time hourly precipitation gage observations. These gridded precipitation estimates were obtained from the National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and were compared to point measurements of daily precipitation from precipitation gages in the vicinity of the Fox River watershed for the period February 2002-September 2004. Multi-sensor precipitation estimates were found to be a considerable improvement over the gridded radar estimates during all seasons. In comparison to the daily gage data, however, the multi-sensor precipitation estimates were on average 25 percent lower throughout the year. Multi-sensor daily precipitation estimates from four storm periods were input to the Fox River Forecast Model to evaluate their potential application in hydrologic forecasting. Only one storm event produced flooding conditions on the Fox River in the period for which radar data was available. The remaining three storm events analyzed in this report produced only moderately high flows. Simulated flow forecasts using the multi-sensor precipitation values were less accurate than companion forecasts using observed data from precipitation gages. Based on the limited number and size of storm events available for simulation, this study was unable to conclude whether or not the multi-sensor precipitation values would be useful for forecasting floods. Until more comparisons can be conducted using data from future major flood events, flow forecasts for the Fox River should continue to be developed using near real-time data from precipitation gages. The present tendency of the multi-sensor precipitation data to underestimate rainfall amounts also makes their use generally inappropriate for longer term hydrologic simulations.
