Temporary winter flooding is a common practice for enhancing wildlife habitat in the Lower Mississippi River Basin (LMRB) and other migratory waterfowl flyways in North America. This practice also facilitates nutrient retention and reuse of rainwater‐ or

Erosion depth of sand from an immobile gravel bed [PDF]
This study was conducted to improve prediction of the depth of erosion of sand (D50 = 0.3–0.9 mm) from immobile gravel (D50 = 36.1 mm) under steady uniform flows with bed shear stresses from 0.1 to 0.9 of that required to entrain the gravel.

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.

Evaluating sediment transport capacity relationships for use in ephemeral gully erosion models [PDF]
On cropland, ephemeral gully erosion in the USA may contribute up to 40% of the sediment delivered to the edge of the field. Well-tested, physically- and process-based tools for field and watershed scale prediction of gully erosion are lacking due to the

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 ...

Stability analysis of riverbanks with a dual structure under water–root–soil coupling
The collapse mechanism of dual-structure vegetation riverbanks at different water levels is unclear. A method for calculating the critical collapse width of a dual-structure vegetation bank under different failure modes that consider the variations in ...
