Book excerpt: Little is known about the coarse load carried by streams in urban areas or the length of time needed for stream channel adjustments to urban conditions. In this study, I examine the history of urbanization in the basin of Second Creek, the status of the channel, and the sediment load of the creek in recent years. Second Creek is a small perennial stream whose 18.6 km2 drainage basin is almost entirely contained within the City of Knoxville, Tennessee. Almost all of the drainage basin was developed more than 40 years ago, and is now urban and suburban in character. For this study, I inspected the channel of Second Creek, measured its dimensions in many places, and recorded the types of materials present and evidence of recent deposition and erosion. My analysis of channel materials included measuring the sizes of more than 100 coarse particles on the streambed at each of several locations. In addition, I measured stream discharge and suspended sediment load near the mouth of the stream during several low and high flows, measured suspended load for a year using rising stage samplers, and estimated bedload by calculating the volume of sediment deposited at the mouth of the stream. Data made available as a result of this study include suspended sediment concentrations from rising stage samplers at five locations for a year of record (October 1998 to October 1999), discharge measurements and suspended sediment concentrations from nine storm events, bedload particle sizes from eight sites, and cross-sectional surveys from 18 sites. If a stream channel is adjusted to present-day hydrologic and sediment load regimes, little net deposition or erosion is expected to take place, yet my examination of the channel of Second Creek reveals that both deposition and erosion have occurred in recent decades. Sediment deposits in box culverts and concrete-lined channel reaches cannot be more than 30 years old, but I found few signs of present-day deposition. Rather than deposition, much of the channel (where not lined with concrete or thick riprap) shows signs of recent erosion. Therefore, channel erosion appears to have replaced deposition as the dominant process in the last few years. This suggests that Second Creek has not adjusted to the urban conditions of its drainage basin, and that channel enlargement is occurring in many places. Impervious surfaces and lawns cover most potentially erodible soil in the drainage basin, so the suspended load is expected to be low, yet measurements show it to be high. Channel erosion is likely to be contributing suspended sediment and coarse particles to the stream. reservoir at the stream outlet indicate the amount of bedload carried by the creek in the last 50 years to be low. to respond to major changes made decades ago and to smaller, more recent changes.
Download or read book River Dynamics written by Bruce L. Rhoads and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rivers are important agents of change that shape the Earth's surface and evolve through time in response to fluctuations in climate and other environmental conditions. They are fundamental in landscape development, and essential for water supply, irrigation, and transportation. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the geomorphological processes that shape rivers and that produce change in the form of rivers. It explores how the dynamics of rivers are being affected by anthropogenic change, including climate change, dam construction, and modification of rivers for flood control and land drainage. It discusses how concern about environmental degradation of rivers has led to the emergence of management strategies to restore and naturalize these systems, and how river management techniques work best when coordinated with the natural dynamics of rivers. This textbook provides an excellent resource for students, researchers, and professionals in fluvial geomorphology, hydrology, river science, and environmental policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the world's population continues to grow, the continual development of riparia areas stresses stream ecosystems. These collected articles aim to provide researchers, aquatic resource managers, land use planners and others with the results of recent studies of the effects of urbanization on stream ecosystems. By presenting fifteen case studies and five regional comparisons, the editors of these proceedings hope to help protect streams form the damages of what they recognize as inevitable urbanization. Foci of the studies include the effects of urbanization on biological diversity and populations, geology, hydrology, and economics.
Book Synopsis Reservoir Sedimentation by : Kumkum Bhattacharyya
Download or read book Reservoir Sedimentation written by Kumkum Bhattacharyya and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reservoir Sedimentation: Assessment and Environmental Controls appraises the issues of sedimentation in reservoirs and discusses measures that can be employed for the effective management of sediment to prolong the operational life of reservoirs. It provides information for professional consultants and policymakers to enable them to manage dams in the best possible way, in order to ensure their sustainability as well as the sustainability of water resources in general. It examines the effects of anthropogenic intervention and management of sediment in dams and reservoirs, as water resources become more sensitive and the demand for clean water continues to increase. Features: Examines the issue of sedimentation in dams and reservoirs and presents water management strategies to alleviate environmental issues Presents methods to help ensure the environmental sustainability of dams and reservoirs, as well as the sustainability of water resources- with consideration of climate change and increased demand Illustrates the spatial distribution of sedimentation characteristics for several dams using geographic information systems (GIS) Explains the relationships between loss in capacity and catchment characteristics Examines regional variation in sediment yield, defines geomorphic regions on the basis of similar hydrometeorology, physiography, geology, and vegetation affecting reservoirs

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the mechanisms of reservoir sedimentation being well known for a long time, sustainable and preventive measures are rarely taken into consideration in the design of new reservoirs. To avoid operational problems of powerhouses, sedimentation is often treated for existing reservoirs with measures which are efficient only for a limited time.Th

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The aim of this research is to investigate the effective discharge of urban streams using an Erosion Potential Based approach. The urban streams selected for this study are Fishpot and Fee Fee Creek in St. Louis. A six step method was adopted to compute effective discharge which includes creating design storms then running the SWMM model with three different sets of parameters values to simulate conditions in the watershed in the existing (1998), future (2010), future with detention (2010)...A secondary aim will be to study geomorphic parameters of urban streams and find the effects of detention basins on the effective discharge"--Abstract, leaf iii.
