      title = {Continuous Hydrologic Modeling to evaluate a Stream Water  Diversion},
      abstract = {A continuous hydrologic model (HEC-HMS) was developed and  will be used to evaluate a water diversion for wetland  creation in Evansville, IN. Continuous hydrologic models  require continuous tracking of soil moisture changes. This  requires vapor loss to the atmosphere via  evapotranspiration (evaporation plus transpiration) to be  modeled. Two methods were used to calculate  evapotranspiration using 20 years of historic  meteorological data. Field data was collected to aid in  validation of the HEC-HMS model. This required installation  of a staff gauge and a water level measurement station. The  validated model will be used in future storage routing  calculations to design a culvert to divert water towards  the center of the site. A hydraulic model (HEC-RAS)  developed by a previous capstone design team was also used  to aid storage routing calculations with HEC-HMS. In  addition to the developed model, water quality analysis was  conducted to reinforce the objective of improving water  quality at the site. The results from the model will  provide estimates of water diversion quantities achievable  over a wide range of meteorological conditions.},
