Frequency distribution for suspended sediment loads
Water Resources Research, 1989A method is described for deriving a frequency distribution for suspended sediment loads. The method uses a curvilinear regression relation between the logarithm of annual flood peaks and the logarithm of suspended sediment loads associated with that flood peak.

Interannual variation of suspended sediment load and sediment yield in an alpine catchment
Hydrological Sciences Journal, 2003Abstract The results are described of 16 years operation of a measuring station for the automatic recording of water discharge, bed load and suspended sediment transport in the Rio Cordon catchment, a small alpine basin (5 km2) located in northeastern Italy.

Artificial intelligence for suspended sediment load prediction: a review
Environmental Earth Sciences, 2021The estimation of sediment yield concentration is crucial for the development of stream ventures, watershed management, toxins estimation, soil disintegration, floods, and so on. In this study, we summarize various existing artificial intelligence (AI)-based suspended sediment load (SSL) estimation models to calculate the suspended sediment load, to ...

Suspended Wash Load Transport of Nonuniform Sediments
Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 2010The results of an experimental study on transport of suspended wash load through a coarse-bed stream are presented. The experiments were conducted under different concentrations of fine suspended sediment (wash load of uniform size, 0.064 mm diameter) and with three different coarse-bed sediments: two having uniform sizes and one with nonuniform size ...

Suspended sediment load in the Amazon basin: An overview
GeoJournal, 1989In this report the state of knowledge of sediment transport by rivers of the Amazon drainage basin is reviewed. On an annual basis the Amazon river transports about 1200×106 tons of sediment from the South American continent to the ocean, which puts it among the world's largest rivers in this respect. The main source of sediment is erosion in the Andes

Estimation of suspended-sediment rating curves and mean suspended-sediment loads
Journal of Hydrology, 1991Suspended-sediment loads are often estimated from an empirical relation between suspended-sediment load (L) and streamflow (S). This relation is usually defined as a power function, L = aSb, and is referred to as a suspended-sediment rating curve. This function can be formulated as either a linear or non-linear model to find the solution of the rating ...

On the calculation of suspended load for noncohesive sediments
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1992Calculation of suspended sediment transport rates requires integration of the product of sediment concentration times velocity over the depth of the flow; hence accurate profiles of these quantities are required especially near the sediment bed. Although this would appear to be a straightforward task, many effects can cause significant deviation of ...

Modeling Mixed Sediment Suspended Load Profiles
Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 1989Potential errors in calculated vertical suspended sediment concentration profiles in river flows carrying mixed sediments are investigated. These profiles are usually obtained through application of a standard ‘diffusion‐dispersion’ model; however, such models are normally formulated on the basis of a unique grain size for the sediment. Accordingly, in

Suspended sediment load of Bulgarian rivers
GeoJournal, 1996In 1951–52, a nationwide sediment gauge network was initiated in Bulgaria. In 1992–93 a Computerized Information Base of Sediment Data for the Bulgarian rivers was developed. Some analysis has shown that the long term sequences of the annual suspended sediment load of the rivers are not homogeneous. The period 1980–90 has received special attention due

Cokriging estimation of daily suspended sediment loads
Journal of Hydrology, 2006Daily suspended sediment loads (S) were estimated using cokriging (CK) of S with daily river discharge based on weekly, biweekly, or monthly sampled sediment data. They were also estimated with ordinary kriging (OK) and a rating curve method. The estimated daily loads were compared with the daily measured values over a nine-year-period.
