Bycatch and discard survival rate in a small-scale bivalve dredge fishery along the Algarve coast (southern Portugal) [PDF]
Although the bivalve dredge used on the Algarve coast (southern Portugal) is highly selective for the target species, in some periods of the year the bycatch can exceed the catch of the commercial species. The present study aimed to quantify the bycatch

Stabilizing and Destabilizing Breaching Flow Slides
As a result of the dilation of soil matrix, dense submarine sand slopes can temporarily be steeper than the natural angle of repose. These slopes gradually fail by the detachment of individual grains and intermittent collapses of small coherent sand ...

A Review of Environmental Implications of Dredging Activities [PDF]
Dredging is a global anthropogenic excavation activity of removing sediments from water bodies and depositing it elsewhere. It is a mixed blessing as it has both beneficial and adverse impacts.

Preliminary Study of Ecological Dredging Technology for the Three Gorges Reservoir [PDF]
[Objective] Traditional dredging methods for reservoir sedimentation can cause resuspension of sediments, leading to the release of nutrients, and then affect the water environment.

Construction of fairways and reconstruction of channels using rotary-bucket dredgers and calculation of soil-collecting devices [PDF]
Rotary bucket dredgers are used in various operations: dredging, mining, development of all types of soil. Despite their high weight, cost and complexity of construction, they are increasingly used in underwater soil development due to their versatility ...

A novel approach for the assessment of morphological evolution based on observed water levels in tide-dominated estuaries [PDF]
Assessing the impacts of both natural (e.g., tidal forcing from the ocean) and human-induced changes (e.g., dredging for navigation, land reclamation) on estuarine morphology is particularly important for the protection and management of the estuarine ...

A Technical Note on the Application of Interpolation Method on Modeling of 3D Surface Rock Layer
The planning stages of dredging require comprehensive and detailed analyses. Identifying the dredging environment is one of the important points. A three-dimensional (3D) geological modeling technology has been shown to be a robust tool for representing ...

A parametric study of DMS subjected to induced low-stress consolidation and heat treatment [PDF]
Dredging activities are important either in the control the accessibility and navigability to harbours or the maintenance to the existing facilities. Dredged marine sediments (DMS) is the products generated from dredging activities.
