Prediction of sediment transport capacity based on slope gradients and flow discharge. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 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

Season, wind speed, and seasonal rain are major drivers of a regional aeolian sediment transport model. [PDF]
PLoS ONEWind erosion and sediment transport continue to increase in many parts of the world, leading to decreased soil quality, accelerated snow-melt, respiratory diseases, and traffic accidents.

Assessment of plot-scale sediment transport on young moraines in the Swiss Alps using a fluorescent sand tracer [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Glacial retreat uncovers large bodies of unconsolidated sediment that are prone to erosion. However, our knowledge of overland flow (OF) generation and sediment transport on moraines that have recently become ice-free is still limited. To investigate how

Assessment methodology for the prediction of landslide dam hazard [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014 This paper represents a contribution to the study of hazard caused by the interaction between landslides and river courses. The effects of such interferences are often catastrophic and could include the formation of upstream lakes, potential dam failure,

Possibilities and challenges of expanding dimensions of waterway downstream of Three Gorges Dam
Water Science and Engineering, 2019 The waterway in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River has long been known as the Golden Waterway and has served as an important link in the construction of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

Sediment transport by runoff on debris-mantled dryland hillslopes [PDF]
, 2012 Hillslopes supply sediment to river channels, and therefore impact drainage basin functioning and evolution. The relationship between hillslope attributes and sediment flux forms the basis of geomorphic transport laws used to model the long-term ...
