Mutation analysis of annual sediment discharge at Wu Long station in Wu Jiang River Basin from 1960 to 2016. [PDF]
This article introduces a new method for mutation detection, the approximate entropy method, which is based on the complexity of time series. The mutation of average annual sediment discharge in Wu Jiang River Basin from 1960 to 2016 is detected by the ...

Assessing modern river sediment discharge to the ocean using satellite gravimetry [PDF]
Measuring rivers’ sediment discharge is critical to assess continental erosion and landscape dynamics, yet it remains a challenging task. Here the authors show that GRACE satellite helps quantifying river sediment discharge by measuring the increment in ...

Modeling the spatially distributed nature of subglacial sediment transport and erosion [PDF]
Glaciers expel sediment as they melt, in addition to ice and water. As a result, changing glacier dynamics and melt produce changes to glacier erosion and sediment discharge, which can impact the landscape surrounding retreating glaciers, as well as ...

Spatial Variation in Specific Sediment Discharge Volume from First-Order Catchment due to Heavy Rainfall and its Factors [PDF]
In this study, we evaluated the variations in sediment discharge between basins from the first- order catchment of the Akatani River watershed, where sediment discharges as a result of heavy rainfall. We tested the correlation between sediment discharge,

Increased rainfall associated with climate change can increase sediment discharge. The supply of fine sediment from slope failures inhibits bed armoring of mountain rivers and increases sediment discharge to the downstream reaches.

Changes in streamflow and sediment discharge and the response to human activities in the middle reaches of the Yellow River [PDF]
The changes in streamflow and sediment discharge in the middle reaches of the Yellow River are a focus. In this paper, based on the precipitation, streamflow and sediment discharge series data (1950–2008), the streamflow and sediment discharge variation ...

Prediction of sediment transport capacity based on slope gradients and flow discharge.
Sediment transport capacity (Tc) is an essential parameter in the establishment of the slope soil erosion model. Slope type is an important crucial factor affecting sediment transport capacity of overland flow, and vegetation can effectively inhibit soil
