SHALO: a simple theoretical description of drainage flow
A model for drainage flow has been developed using shallow fluid theory and considerations of entrainment of overlaying air and surface drage. Using explicit differencing techniques, a code was produced and applied to the nocturnal drainage flows in the complex valleys of the Geysers Geothermal Area of northern California.
