Study on Strength and Permeability of Silt Soils Improving by Tung Oil and Sticky Rice Juice
Tianluoshan site (5000∼2500 BC), which belongs to the Hemudu culture, has suffered damages from the hydraulic effect like other Chinese earthen sites in moist circumstance. Tung oil and sticky rice juice, as Chinese traditional building materials, were chosen as the additives in this study. Tung oil has the property of good waterproofness, fast dry‐up,

Local human activities overwhelm decreased sediment supply from the Changjiang River: Continued rapid accumulation in the Hangzhou Bay-Qiantang Estuary system [PDF]
We investigate the morphological responses of the Hangzhou Bay, China, located immediately south of the Changjiang Estuary, to the drastic reduction of the sediment load from the Changjiang River and the large-scale coastal embankment schemes over past ...

State-Space Solution of Estuary Bed Responses Subjected to Extreme Hydrodynamic Conditions. I: Tidal Bore [PDF]
The evaluation of the extreme hydrodynamic forces-induced dynamic response in bed is particularly important for coastal geotechnical engineers involved in the design of the foundations of marine structures at estuarine area.

Effects of Qiandao Lake water diversion project on Qiantang River estuary saltwater intrusion
Qiandao Lake water diversion project will change the runoff process of the Fuchun reservoir and the salinity of Qiantang River estuary. A two-dimensional numerical salinity model which including tidal bore's action is established.

Analysis and numerical simulation of the limiting factors of algal blooms in Qiantang River estuary
Abstract Algal blooms generally occur in lakes and reservoirs rather than macro-tidal estuary. However, algal blooms repeated in the Qiantang River estuary, a typical macro-tidal estuary, which has seriously influenced the aquatic environment and water supply in Hangzhou. A coupled hydrodynamic-ecological model was established to explore

Morphodynamics of Sandbar in a Macro-tidal Estuary: A Model Approach [PDF]
This paper studied the development and the underlying physical mechanisms of the large sandbar in Qiantang estuary, China, using an idealized morphodynamic model. The model coupled shallow water equations, cohesive sediment transport and bed level update

Atmospheric noise of a breaking tidal bore [PDF]
A tidal bore is a surge of waters propagating upstream in an estuary as the tidal flow turns to rising and the flood tide propagates into a funnel-shaped system. Large tidal bores have a marked breaking roller.

Land Reclamation Impacts on Tidal Landscape Evolution
Abstract In the past 1000 years, the continuous need for fertile and strategically located land has led to the reclamation of intertidal areas. The direct and short‐term impact of land reclamation is a reduction in intertidal storage space and the loss of ecological value.

EFFECTS OF HYPERCONCENTRATION-RELATED DRAG REDUCTION ON TIDAL PROPAGATION IN THE QIANTANG ESTUARY
The Qiantang Estuary (QE) in the east coast of China is famous for its hyperconcentrated tidal bore with the highest sediment concentration up to about 80 kg/m3 (Pan et al., 2013). Recent research for some European estuaries has indicated that hyperconcentrated environment may affect tidal propagation through hydraulic drag reduction, resulting in an ...
