Water Injection Dredging for improving and preserving reservoir storage capacity: modelling and measuring tools [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2022
Water Injection Dredging (WID) has been successfully applied for removing sediment deposits in reservoirs, which results in an increase of their storage capacity.

Coastal wave-energy attenuation by artificial wooden fences deployed for mangrove restoration: an experimental study

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
By offering natural protection along offshore wetlands, mangroves play a crucial role in providing great ecological and economic benefits to local communities.

Sediment load determines the shape of rivers [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 118(49) 2021, 2022
Understanding how rivers adjust to the sediment load they carry is critical to predicting the evolution of landscapes. Presently, however, no physically based model reliably captures the dependence of basic river properties, such as its shape or slope, on the discharge of sediment, even in the simple case of laboratory rivers.

Visual Sedimentation [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2013
We introduce Visual Sedimentation, a novel design metaphor for visualizing data streams directly inspired by the physical process of sedimentation. Visualizing data streams (e. g., Tweets, RSS, Emails) is challenging as incoming data arrive at unpredictable rates and have to remain readable.

Climate Change Impacts on Soil Erosion and Sediment Delivery to German Federal Waterways: A Case Study of the Elbe Basin

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Climate change is an important driver of soil erosion and sediment delivery to water bodies. We use observation data from 193 locations in the Elbe River basin as well as spatially distributed erosion rates and sediment delivery simulated in the WaTEM ...

Spatiotemporal variation and tendency analysis on rainfall erosivity in the Loess Plateau of China

open access: yesHydrology Research, 2020
Rainfall erosivity is an important factor to be considered when predicting soil erosion. Precipitation data for 1971–2010 from 39 stations located in the Loess Plateau of China were collected to calculate the spatiotemporal variability of rainfall ...

Supercarriers of antibiotic resistome in a world’s large river

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2022
Background Antibiotic resistome has been found to strongly interact with the core microbiota in the human gut, yet little is known about how antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) correlate with certain microbes in large rivers that are regarded as ...

Predisposition Factor of Safety of Landslide Dams from Typhoon Talas, Kii Peninsula, Japan

open access: yesForum Geografi, 2022
Landslide dams are less frequent than other landslides, and their very existence is often very-much short-lived, because the temporary dam tends to collapse rapidly.
