Around seven decades river course shifting and bank erosion susceptibility of river Mujnai

open access: yesRiver, 2022
River bank erosion is a destructive fluvio‐hydrological hazard particularly inhabited flood plain of the dynamic Himalayan foreland basin. Every year during monsoonal months, morphology of the landscape is continuously modifying through the dynamic river

Assessing the Instability of Dong Nai River in Bien Hoa District Using Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) and Remote Sensing and GIS [PDF]

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
Abstract In this study, a method for developing a quantitative prediction of river bank erosion in Bien Hoa district in Dong Nai River is presented. The river bank erosion hazard index (BEHI) was estimated to assess the stability of the river bank erosion in consultation with bank height, bank slope, rooting depth, rooting density and ...

Estimation expédiée du risque érosif dans l’amont du bassin versant du Nahr el Kalb

open access: yesVertigO, 2022
Soil degradation by water erosion is a natural phenomenon that can be amplified by anthropogenic actions. The consequences of this phenomenon are harmful and can harm the intrinsic characteristics of the soil, and lead to its disappearance in certain ...

Bank erosion hazard index as an indicator of near-bank aquatic habitat and community structure in a southeastern Piedmont stream

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2014
Abstract Streams in the southeastern Piedmont region display varying degrees of bank erosion, which in turn can influence multiple physical and biological processes. In efforts to assess and predict bank erosion, the multi-metric tool Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) is often calculated.

Predicting the annual erosion rates on a small stream by the BANCS model

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2019
The erosion of streambanks causes soil loss and degrades the stream habitat. To optimize the prevention of bank erosion, we first need to determine the most vulnerable places on banks. This can be done by the BANCS model.
