Effects of harvesting methods on sustainability of a bay scallop fishery: dredging uproots seagrass and displaces recruits [PDF]
Fishing is widely recognized to have profound effects on estuarine and marine ecosystems (Hammer and Jansson, 1993; Dayton et al., 1995). Intense commercial and recreational harvest of valuable species can result in population collapses of target and ...

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.

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 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 ...
