Long term evolution of a dam reservoir subjected to regular flushing events [PDF]
Advances in Geosciences, 2014 An analysis of the long term morphological evolution of the Génissiat reservoir (France) is provided. First, a methodology for bathymetric data processing and reservoir sediment volume budget calculation is described.

Assessment of the Slop Gradient on the Estimated Erosion and Sediment Delivery Ratio by Using 137Cs in the Khamsan Representative Watershed [PDF]
پژوهشهای آبخیزداری, 2020 The sediment budget has been introduced as a valuable concept and tool for describing the production, transport and deposition of sediment in a watershed.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Breakwaters are a common shoreline protection structure, often trapping sediment as the incoming wave energy is reduced. Quantifying the dynamics and volume of these sediment sinks within a coastal system is an important step toward understanding the ...

Modeling long-term, large-scale sediment storage using a simple sediment budget approach [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2016 Currently, the anthropogenic perturbation of the biogeochemical cycles remains unquantified due to the poor representation of lateral fluxes of carbon and nutrients in Earth system models (ESMs).

Sediment budget monitoring of debris-flow and bedload transport in the Manival Torrent, SE France [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012 Steep mountain catchments typically experience large sediment pulses from hillslopes which are stored in headwater channels and remobilized by debris-flows or bedload transport.

Reassessment of the Volumes of Sediment Sources and Sinks on Venus
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 The dominant source of sediment on Venus is thought to be impact cratering, wherein crater ejecta is redistributed across the planet by winds. Here we provide a refined global sediment budget for Venus by mapping and quantifying the volume of sediment ...

In‐situ Mass Balance Estimates Offshore Costa Rica
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 The Costa Rican convergent margin has been considered a type erosive margin, with erosional models suggesting average losses up to −153 km3/km/m.y. However, three‐dimensional (3D) seismic reflection and Integrated Ocean Drilling Program data collected ...

Assessment of Moraine Cliff Spatio-Temporal Erosion on Wolin Island Using ALS Data Analysis
Remote Sensing, 2022 The aim of the article is to present the temporal and spatial variability of the cliff coast erosion of the Wolin Island in 2012–2020 in three time periods (2012–2015, 2015–2018, 2018–2020).
