Numerical modeling of sediment transport in hydropower reservoirs has emerged as a crucial field of study in water resources engineering. This multidisciplinary approach combines computational fluid ...
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is well-known for maintenance dredging within the Great Lakes to support navigability and commerce. Tributaries connected to the lakes contribute to increased sediment ...
The Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) rivers carry a massive sediment load that feeds the world’s largest depositional system: the GBM megadelta. The mass of sediment transported annually by the GBM ...
Researchers have devised a better way to measure how fast sediment flows in rivers -- information that can help scientists and planners better prepare for flooding and weather-related events, ...
Sediment dynamics on Arctic shelves can impact coastal geomorphology, habitat suitability, and biogeochemical cycling, and are expected to be sensitive to changes in sea ice extent. Variability in ...
Journal of Coastal Research, SPECIAL ISSUE NO. 54. Geologic and Environmental Dynamics of the Pontchartrain Basin (FALL 2009), pp. 71-87 (17 pages) Algal blooms have been recorded in the Pontchartrain ...
This paper describes sedimentary conditions in a low-energy embayment in the Western Baltic. Water depths vary between 32 m and 4 m. The tidal range of 20 cm is less than the sea level fluctuations ...
