This book was released on 2017 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Channelization, levee construction, and gravel mining are land management practices that are used for flood control. However, they often alter the balance between sediment supply and available sediment transporting power in streams, causing channel instability. Streams can respond to instability through channel incision and sediment aggradation which can degrade riparian habitat, increase flood risks, and cause property damage. These problems have been observed along segments of Big Barren Creek, which drains 190 km2 of the Missouri Ozarks in Mark Twain National Forest. Field assessment and modeling methods were used to evaluate the spatial distribution of channel instability along the upper 20 kilometers of Big Barren Creek and quantify the changes in channel morphology, hydrology, and sediment transport capacity related to channel modifications. Results show that channelized reaches of Big Barren Creek are generally steeper, up to two times deeper, and can transport up to four times more sediment than nearby natural reaches. High sediment transport capacity given unchanged sediment supply can account for headcuts, bed coarsening, and downstream sediment aggradation that are associated with channelized reaches of Big Barren Creek. These findings identify channelization as the primary contributor to channel instability within Big Barren Creek. Restoration efforts should focus on development plans to mitigate channelization and enhance channel recovery.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the influence of human disturbance on channel conditions in Big Barren Creek. The Big Barren watershed drains 191 km2 of the Ozark Highlands in southeast Missouri. Several segments of the creek have been channelized by levee construction and gravel mining. Approximately 27.2 km of the main stem of Barren Creek were assessed for 13 photo-years ranging from 1939 to 2014. Geomorphic classifications using channel conditions in aerial photographs and field observations were used to evaluate patterns of disturbance. While 52% of the creek is managed by private landowners, 81% of disturbed length occurs on private lands. Further, 43% of disturbed channel length on public land is associated with channelization along private segments where channel incision and head-cuts migrate upstream and excess sediment loads are released downstream. While channelization started before 1939 in the upper segments, first time channelization occurred as late as 2007 in downstream segments. Channelization by private land managers is the main cause of channel instability in Big Barren Creek, however road crossings may also create unstable conditions in some reaches.
Book Synopsis Disturbing Geomorphology by Transportation Infrastructure by : Suvendu Roy
Download or read book Disturbing Geomorphology by Transportation Infrastructure written by Suvendu Roy and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on a significant branch of anthropogeomorphology, which is not adequately studied: the impact of transportation systems on altering earth surface processes and landforms. This book fills the gap with in-depth study on the interaction between individual modes of transport network (e.g., trail, roads, railways, waterways, airports, and tunnel) and surface hydro-geomorphology with intensive literature review, fieldwork, geo-environmental modelling, mapping, case studies, and examples from different parts of the world. On the one hand, this book also addresses the vulnerability of transport networks from climate change and critical geo-hazards like floods, landslides, etc. with case studies from the high-risk zones of India. Overall, this book promotes peaceful harmony between the transport network and its surrounding landscapes as an essential lesson for policymakers, planners, and stakeholders.

Book Synopsis Characteristics of Sediment Transport at Selected Sites Along the Missouri River During the High-Flow Conditions Of 2011 by : U. S. Department U.S. Department of the Interior
Download or read book Characteristics of Sediment Transport at Selected Sites Along the Missouri River During the High-Flow Conditions Of 2011 written by U. S. Department U.S. Department of the Interior and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-04-28 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During 2011, many tributaries in the Missouri River Basin experienced near record peak streamflow and caused flood damage to many communities along much of the Missouri River from Montana to the confluence with the Mississippi River. The large runoff event in 2011 provided an opportunity to examine characteristics of sediment transport in the Missouri River at high-magnitude streamflow and for a long duration. The purpose of this report is to describe sediment characteristics during the 2011 high-flow conditions at six selected sites on the Missouri River, two in the middle region of the basin between Lake Sakakawea and Lake Oahe in North Dakota, and four downstream from Gavins Point Dam along the Nebraska-South Dakota and Nebraska-Iowa borders.

Download or read book Missouri River Planning written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-02-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, the flow of sediment in the Missouri River has been as important as the flow of water for a variety of river functions. The sediment has helped form a dynamic network of islands, sandbars, and floodplains, and provided habitats for native species. Further downstream, sediment transported by the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers has helped build and sustain the coastal wetlands of the Mississippi River delta. The construction of dams and river bank control structures on the Missouri River and its tributaries, however, has markedly reduced the volume of sediment transported by the river. These projects have had several ecological impacts, most notably on some native fish and bird species that depended on habitats and landforms created by sediment flow. Missouri River Planning describes the historic role of sediment in the Missouri River, evaluates current habitat restoration strategies, and discusses possible sediment management alternatives. The book finds that a better understanding of the processes of sediment transport, erosion, and deposition in the Missouri River will be useful in furthering river management objectives, such as protection of endangered species and development of water quality standards.
