Showing the dimensions and capacity of drains and sluices, and the area of land for which they are adapted. This table gives approximately the dimensions of drains and sluices required for conveying the water off fens or polders. The calculations are based on a quantity of water due to a quarter of an inch rain in 24 hours, and allowing for the drains and sluices to run the whole 24 hours. The larger sluices are calculated to discharge at about the same velocity as the drains. In the smaller sluices a greater head has been allowed. If a greater head can be given, the width of the sluices can be reduced accordingly. As the velocity varies as the square root of the fall, four times the fall per mile given in the table will double the discharge, or, onefourth of the fall will give one-half the discharge. INDEX. A.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man’s control over the elements of land and water for the purposes of agriculture was fundamental to the development of civilisations in the past, and remains so today. This volume deals with the processes of irrigation, and land drainage and reclamation, and illustrates the variety of technological and engineering solutions in a wide chronological and geographical perspective. The sophistication of many pre-modern systems is clear, as is the impact of modern technologies. Important points that emerge are that there was no steady or linear progression in techniques across time - instances of the transfer of ideas are balanced by cases of independent development - and that the correlations between irrigation systems and social structures demand more complex explanations than often proposed.

Download or read book Lost Fens written by Ian D. Rotherham and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of the great fenlands of eastern England is the greatest single removal of ecology in our history. So thorough was the process that most visitors to the regions, or even people living there, have little idea of what has gone. For many, the Fenlands are the vast expansive flatlands of intensive farming, the ‘breadbaskets’ of Britain. Lost are the vast flocks of wetland birds that filled the evening skies in winter, the frozen wetlands and the fen skaters of the winter, and the abundant black terns or breeding wading birds of the summer months. However, pause a while off main roads and consider place names and road names: Fenny Lane, The Withies, Commonside, Reed Holme, Fen Common, Turbary Lane, Wildmore, Adventurers’ Fen, Wicken Fen, and more; they tell a story of a landscape now gone but once hugely important.The Fens bred revolution and civil war and paid the penalty. They nurtured religious non-conformism with global impact. After 1066, the Saxons withheld the Normans’ onslaught, and in the 1970s, unting’s Beavers took action against twentieth-century invaders. The fenscapes, neither water nor land but something in-between, breed independence and, if necessary, dissention. This story is of politically and economically driven ecological catastrophe and loss. So much has gone, but we do not even know fully what was there before. With global environmental change, and especially climate change, fenlands once again have major roles in our sustainable futures.
