STUDH: A Two-Dimensional Numerical Model for Sediment Transport
TABS-2 water level and flow computations are performed by the generalized numerical model program RMA-2V; salinity and tracer transport computations are performed with RMA-4, and sediment...
ASCE Task Committee on Analysis of Laboratory and Field Sediment Data Accuracy and availability
Alluvial channel observations for laboratory and field conditions have been collected throughout the twentieth century. These data have not been adequately evaluated as to accuracy or...
Task Committee on Analysis of Laboratory and Field Sediment Data Accuracy and Availability
One of the main purposes of the ASCE Task Committee on Analysis of Laboratory and Field Sediment Data Accuracy and Availability is to assemble worldwide sedimentation data from field and...
Criteria for a Sediment Data Set
The transport of sediment through a hydrologic system or basin is an extremely complex phenomenon. Many factors affect this movement. Criteria are established for an 'ultimate' or complete...
Total Sediment Discharge Measurement
A procedure for measuring total sediment discharge using point-source suspended-sediment data was developed. The procedure, Total Sediment Discharge (TSD), was compared to field and modified...
Total Sediment Load Calculations for Goodwin Creek
Total sediment transport load of Goodwin Creek was calculated for the period from 10/1/84 to 9/30/88 using transport relations derived from sample data for the fines (< 0.06 mm),...
Estimation of Unsampled Sediment Discharge
A procedure is developed to estimate the total bed material load without using the size distribution of suspended load. Because of the uncertainties involved in the calculation of the...
Settling Basin Model for the Personal Computer
The SETSIZE program, models sediment deposition in a settling basin. The program can be applied to determine the length of time until dredging or cleaning is necessary or solve for an...
Soil Erosion, Sediment Yield, and Deposition in the Illinois River Basin
The amount of soil erosion of the Illinois River Basin was estimated by using the 1982 National Resources Inventory (NRI) and the Illinois Geographic Information System (GIS). The sediment...
Soil Erosion and Sediment Transport Modeling on Small Tropical Watersheds
A fundamentally-based concept of a soil erosion and sediment transport model in a forest tropical area is presented. It will be incorporated to the ANSWERS model. The forest hydrology...
Sediment Yield and Mean Annual Discharge from Watersheds in the Indian Subcontinent
Measurements of sediment deposition in reservoirs located in the Indian subcontinent (India, Nepal, Pakistan) indicate that the rate of sedimentation is much higher than predicted during...
A Watershed Model of Sediment Transport?Load-I
A watershed sediment transport model has been formulated and optimized upon storm hydrographs and the associated sediment load data for several watersheds that have been urbanized and...
Estimation of the Effect of Land Use Changes on Storm-Event Sediment Yield from a Small Watershed
The influence of partial deforestation in a small lowland watershed in the center of Poland on storm-event sediment yield is analysed. Rainfall-runoff model has been applied to estimate...
Convective Sedimentation from a Stable Turbid Layer
A set of experiments was conducted to test T Green's criterion for the existence of double-diffusive convective motions at an originally sharp, horizontal interface separating...
Movement of Sediment Mixtures in a Parabolic Flume with Simulated Rainfall
A 4-m long flume with parabolic cross section and adjustable slope was constructed to investigate the sediment carrying capacity and the variation of grain size distribution during deposition....
Measuring Resuspension of Sediment by Barge Tows
An earlier effort to measure resuspension of sediment relied on U.S. standard depth-integrating sediment samplers. In designing a new effort to collect field data on resuspension, the...
A Computer Model for Gravel Pit Headcut Simulation
Sand and gravel mining activities have led to numerous problems in river management. A review of many complaints on sand and gravel mining indicates that the major concern is structural...
Earthquake Effect on Sediment in Rivers and Deltas
Many authors have studied the age and distribution of the Holocene deltaic deposits of the Mississippi River. Several others have written about the magnitude and the recurrence interval...
The Sediment Problem in South Africa Reservoirs
The reservoir sedimentation problem has been studied in South Africa from 1903 onwards. A substantial capacity reduction in reservoirs located in high sediment production regions has been...
Intrusion of Turbid Water into a Two-Layer Stratified Environment
The horizontal intrusion of a turbid water with some intermediate density spreading on the interface of a two-layered homogeneous body of water is investigated. The study is directed towards...
