Comprehensive Water Resource Solutions

Verdantas offers a comprehensive suite of water resource engineering services for the development of environmentally and economically sustainable solutions to habitat, restoration, public safety, and river engineering projects. Our expertise allows us to integrate hydrology, hydraulics, fluvial geomorphology, and sediment transport along with a complete suite of specialized services to predict, manage, preserve, and coexist with one of life’s most precious resources.

Hydraulic Modeling and Analysis

At Verdantas, our staff have become industry-leading problem-solvers and designers through their deep, foundational understanding of hydraulics and fluid dynamics. Backed by North America’s largest hydraulic laboratory, our technical expertise in the field of hydraulic engineering allows us to utilize cutting-edge numerical and physical modeling tools and techniques, including 1-D, 2-D, and 3-D (CFD) numerical models to identify solutions and guide decision makers.

Sediment Transport and Fluvial Geomorphologic Assessments

Our staff are widely recognized and bring a deep understanding of stream processes and river mechanics.  We apply our decades of practical nationwide experience in a variety of landscapes and stream types, including small to large river systems and both sand- and gravel-bed streams, to thoroughly understand the physical processes and functions controlling the behavior of each system. Using a physically based approach, we then integrate key drivers such as hydrology, hydraulics, fluvial geomorphology, sediment transport, anthropogenic influences, and biological components to provide a sound basis for developing sustainable riverine solutions.

Application of Fundamental Expertise

At Verdantas, we leverage our specialized expertise in hydraulics and river mechanics to support a wide range of water resource needs from flood mitigation to bridge scour analysis and countermeasure design to fish passage and stream restoration.  Our qualifications also include technical training and development of guidance documents, hydrologic evaluations, and assessments of stream condition and behavior. We thrive on successfully solving the most complex problems to provide truly viable solutions to our clients.
