Analytical model for flux saturation in sediment transport [PDF]
The transport of sediment by a fluid along the surface is responsible for dune formation, dust entrainment and for a rich diversity of patterns on the bottom of oceans, rivers, and planetary surfaces. Most previous models of sediment transport have focused on the equilibrium (or saturated) particle flux.

Rapid changes to global river suspended sediment flux by humans
Rivers support indispensable ecological functions and human health and infrastructure. Yet limited river sampling hinders our understanding of consequential changes to river systems.

Bacterial activity hinders particle sedimentation [PDF]
Sedimentation in active fluids has come into focus due to the ubiquity of swimming micro-organisms in natural and industrial processes. Here, we investigate sedimentation dynamics of passive particles in a fluid as a function of bacteria E. coli concentration.

Algal–bacterial water treatment is more effective for better harvesting and promotes energy savings than other traditional treatments, while the relationships between them are multifarious.

Role of sediment in speleogenesis; sedimentation and paragenesis [PDF]
Although the effects of sedimentation in caves have been recognised for many years, its role in speleogenesis is frequently overlooked. Influxes of sediment into a cave system fundamentally alter the way cave passages develop, either by alluviation in a vadose environment, forcing lateral corrosion and the development of notches, or by upwards ...

Trends of surface humidity and temperature during 1951−2012 in Beijing, China [PDF]
In this paper, two datasets, a long time series (1951–2012) of daily surface observations at one meteorological station and a shorter time series (1979–2012) of three-hourly data with 0.1°×0.1° spatial resolution were analysed by using non-parametric ...

A Machine Learning Model Relating Xrain and Rain Gauge
In the last decade, rainfall radars have been deployed at volcanoes such as Mt. Merapi in Indonesia and can even cover a whole country such as in Japan, where the X-Rain (eXtended Radar Information network) product has been available for local research ...

Observations in a sediment-laden flow by use of laser-doppler velocimetry [PDF]
The laser-Doppler velocimetry technique was adapted for use in sediment-laden flows. The developed instrumentation was used to make one-dimensional, instantaneous measurements of both fluid and sediment grain velocities throughout the water column in ...
