An interdisciplinary model chain quantifies the footprint of global change on reservoir sedimentation [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Global change alters hydro-climatic conditions, affects land use, and contributes to more frequent droughts and floods. Large artificial reservoirs may effectively alleviate hydro-climatic extremes, but their storage capacities are threatened by ...

Estimation of reservoir sedimentation using bathymetry survey at Shumburit earth dam, East Gojjam zone Amhara region, Ethiopia [PDF]
Heliyon, 2022 Sediment accumulation is a major factor in reducing the useful life of irrigation reservoirs. As a result, information on any changes in storage capacity is required to reduce the reservoir's risk. Therefore, the goal of this research was to identify the

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 In nearly all reservoirs, storage capacity is steadily lost due to trapping and accumulation of sediment. Despite critical importance to freshwater supplies, reservoir sedimentation rates are poorly understood due to sparse bathymetry survey data and ...

Risk analysis of reservoir sedimentation under non‐stationary flows
Journal of Flood Risk Management, 2021 Reservoir sustainability is strongly impacted by the reservoir sedimentation processes. Most of the substantial sedimentation processes occur in non‐stationary flows such as in the case of flash floods, surges and tidal waves.

The sedimentation datasets of Keuliling reservoir
Data in Brief, 2020 Sedimentation is commonly found as one of the problems affecting the function of reservoirs in Indonesia. High risk soil erosion leads to the increase in sediment production which negatively influencing the capacity or functional age of the reservoir ...

INFLUENCE OF THE RESERVOIR SEDIMENTATION ON THE DAM OPERATION – A STUDY OF ASWAN HIGH DAM IN EGYPT [PDF]
JES: Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020 Reservoirs are an important source of water supply, provide hydropower, reduce the deficiency influences, and provide flood protection. Due to the dam structure and reservoir founding, the releases from the dam has become more restrained and the hanging ...

Remote Sensing, 2023 Soil loss (SL) and its related sedimentation in mountainous areas affect the lifetime and functionality of dams. Darbandikhan Lake is one example of a dam lake in the Zagros region that was filled in late 1961.

Stability criteria for Bayesian calibration of reservoir sedimentation models
Modeling Earth Systems and Environment, 2023 Modeling reservoir sedimentation is particularly challenging due to the simultaneous simulation of shallow shores, tributary deltas, and deep waters. The shallow upstream parts of reservoirs, where deltaic avulsion and erosion processes occur, compete ...
