Long‐Term Effects of Low‐Drop Grade Control Structures on Channel Evolution in the Yazoo River Basin

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Channel incision is a widespread problem, especially in river basins that have an extensive history of channel alterations. Because channel incision causes large ecological and economic consequences, the prevention of continued migration of headcuts, defined as a steep change in stream gradient over a short reach, has been the focus of many ...

Experimental study on scour around beveled submerged vanes

International Journal of Sediment Research
Submerged vanes are an effective approach to sediment management in river systems. Nowadays, submerged vanes are increasingly utilized in contemporary river engineering due to their convenient and cost-effective installation, which distinguishes them ...

Temporal variation of clear-water scour at compound Abutments

Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2016
Most of actual abutments in rivers are built on foundation, while there is limited number of study available on the effects of the foundation on the local scour.

Effects of flow regime on the young stages of salmonid fishes. Summary and conclusions based on results for 1981-1985 [PDF]

, 1985
The main British salmonid species spawn in clean gravel in streams and rivers, many of them in the upland areas of Britain. The earliest stages of the life cycle (eggs and alevins) spend some months within the gravel of the river bed.

Dam It, I’m Stranded: Evaluating Fish Stranding Downstream of Two Hydropeaking Dams in Northern Ontario

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, there has been an increase in the development and use of hydropower to produce energy. Hydropeaking is an operating regime that is used to meet real‐time energy demands; however, daily fluctuations in flows may result in fish becoming stranded.

Scour near Offshore Monopiles, Jacket-Type and Caisson-Type Structures

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Scour near various offshore structures (monopile, caisson foundation and jacket structure) was studied by performing laboratory flume tests and numerical solutions with a semi-empirical model (SEDSCOUR) and a sophisticated 2DV model (SUSTIM2DV).

The Transboundary Reach of the Columbia River: Cottonwood Colonization Followed Flow Moderation From the Columbia River Treaty Dams

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Columbia river provides the largest Pacific outflow in the Western Hemisphere and the greatest hydropower production of any North American river system. For hydropower generation and flood risk management, four massive water storage reservoirs followed the Columbia River Treaty between Canada and the United States, with three Canadian dams,

Numerical Investigation of Local Scour Around Bridge Pile-Group Foundations Under Steady Flows

Infrastructures
Local scour around pile-group foundations is a predominant cause of hydraulic instability in bridge engineering. This study employs a fully coupled three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model to investigate local scour around a 2 × 2 inline pile
