Image‐based river sediment transport simulations show a significant decrease in flow velocity and sediment load in ice‐covered river conditions compared to open‐water low‐flow conditions. When an additional increase in ice thickness was simulated, bedload increased because the thicker ice narrowed the river channel substantially.

Abstract Understanding the strengths and limitations of the modeling capacity of surface flooding in urbanized floodplains is of utmost importance as such events are becoming increasingly frequent and extreme. In this study, we assess two computational models against laboratory observations of surface urban flooding in a reduced‐scale physical model of

Remote sensing of laboratory rivers
Remote sensing can be adapted for the lab to monitor the evolution of physical experiments without disrupting their processes. We review ways to deploy ‘remote sensing’ for experiments in fluvial geomorphology. We hope this paper will be helpful for experimentalists who want to collect data both continuously and cost‐effectively.

Application of an Automated Discharge Imaging System and LSPIV during Typhoon Events in Taiwan [PDF]
An automated discharge imaging system (ADIS), a non-intrusive and safe approach, was developed for measuring river flows during flash flood events. ADIS consists of dual cameras to capture complete surface images in the near and far fields. Surface velocities are accurately measured using the Large Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) technique ...

Optimization of Snow Drifting Mitigation and Control Methods for Iowa Conditions Part II, TR-626, 2015 [PDF]
Blowing and drifting of snow is a major concern for transportation efficiency and road safety in regions where their development is common. One common way to mitigate snow drift on roadways is to install plastic snow fences. Correct design of snow fences

Uso de viscosidade turbulenta constante na predição numérica do assoreamento numa armadilha [PDF]
A capacidade de predizer taxas de sedimentação e sua distribuição não uniforme em ri os e reservatorios é tarefa não trivial, sendo importante tanto na fase de concepçã o de estudos e projetos como para a gestão ambiental sustentável destes ...
