A major surface storage on the Burdekin River in North Queensland is to be constructed to supply water to approximately 680 km SUP 2 of mostly sugar cane. Currently an aquifer in the Delta region provides irrigation water for approximately 300 km SUP 2. The paper describes results from a dynamic programming and simulation study to investigate the performance of several operating rules for the surface reservoir. The possible advantages of conjunctive use of the surface and groundwater reservoirs are also examined. (A)

This paper describes and compares three ways of adjusting examination scores to account for marker variability and course options. With a bare minimum of statistical theory it indicates the criteria under which each method might be preferred. © 1982 Taylor & Francis Group.

This paper compares radial and upflow filters with conventional filters based on head loss development and the number of bed volumes filtered during a filter run. Mathematical formulations of K. J. Ives are used to study conventional and upflow filters. The model parameters obtained from conventional filters are used to predict the radial filter performance
