With all this rain there's a chance the some roads could become impassible due to water flowing across them. If you encounter a flooded roadway always remember toTURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN.TxDOTreminds us that flash flooding is the leading cause of weather related deaths in Texas. If you en...
The term smog originally came about in the early 1900s. Today, the term refers to any ozone pollution that makes the air hard to see through. Photochemical smog is mostly what is seen today. It happens when sunlight mixes with chemicals released from things like factories, car exhaust, gasol...

In the past, there were no minimum first-floor elevation requirements for developments, and the city had minimal control over design. This led to numerous flooding problems that are still today challenging to resolve. 4. Results Return periods for several rainfall durations are the most common ...
The validation of the designed simulator was conducted by comparing the simulation results run in the ECLIPSE V2013.1 software (Houston, TX, USA) and the results from the polymer flooding experiments. While considering polymer degradation, simulations were undertaken by applying the designed simulator ...
