Development of a Long-Term Dredged Material Management Plan Chincoteague, Virginia

Ground Failures Under Seismic Conditions
This proceedings, Ground Failures Under Seismic Conditions, contains invited and contributed papers which focus on the behavior of silty and...

Restoration of Batiquitos Lagoon: Cooperative Effort, Judicially Sanctioned
Restoration of badly degraded Batiquitos Lagoon required a project of unprecedented size and scope, involving numerous local, state and federal agencies. The restoration project will cost...

Environments Parameters of Sediments and the Interface Sediment-Water in the Tacarigua Lagoon (Venezuela)
A study was made of the sedimentological characteristics of a lagoon bottom, and of the anions present at the sediment-water interface. For this analysis, the lagoon was divided into five...

Disposal of Dredged Material from the Estuaries
The silting up of harbours and the lower parts of rivers are serious problems. These problems can be characterized in terms of quantity and quality. Two separated cases are described....

Evolution and Dynamics of the Chilka Lake
The Chilka Lake, the largest coastal lagoon in Asia, has occupied a possible tectonic depression along the east coast of India. Although the open sea coast was along the western margin...

Environmental Change in Southern Part of Mekong River Delta and Problems of Territorial Rational Use
Mekong river delta (MRD) is a largest plain in South-East Asia. Its southern part as a peninsula is a recently forming plain with low surface and it has been made up by muddy silt. Last...

Soda Dam: Influence of Reservoir Silt Deposits on the Uplift Load

Lateral Loading Curves from Pressuremeter Tests
The large drilled shafts for the proposed Klamath Falls Bridge, which are to be founded in diatomaceous silts, were to be designed to withstand earthquake induced large cyclic loading....

Pelton Landslide: An Unusual Double-Wedge Failure

Modeling of Lateral Spreads in Silty Sands by Sliding Soil Blocks

Physical Model Studies on Hydraulic Characteristics of High Permeable Silt Protector Sheets

Field and Numerical Investigations on Siltation Mechanism in Kumamoto Port
Synthetic investigations on siltation mechanism in Kumamoto Port were carried out by field observations, laboratory tests, and numerical simulations. Natural conditions such as tides,...

An Engineering Evaluation of Fine Sedimentation at the Mayport Naval Basin, Mayport, Florida
The Mayport Naval Basin is located near the mouth of the St Johns River in northeastern Florida, U.S.A. A total of 16.8 million cubic yards of fine sediment were dredged from the harbor...

Temporal Ion Balance Variation of an Irrigated Soil
The research was carried out in Southern Italy, from 1983 to 1988, using two gravity lysimeters irrigated with non saline water. The objective of this study was to test wether long-term...
