Assessing Riverbed Surface Destabilization Risk Downstream Isolated Vegetation Elements

چکیده
A few decades ago, river erosion protective approaches were widely implemented, such as straightening the course, enhancing riverbed/bank stability with layers of concrete or riprap, and increasing channel conveyance capacity (i.e., overwidening). However, recent research has established that practices can be tremendously costly adversely affect rivers’ ecological health. To alleviate these effects, green restoration emerged a sustainable environmentally friendly approach reduce negative impact riverbed bank destabilization flooding. One typical measures, especially for instream habitat improvement, is establishment vegetation, which leads to more diversified flow regime, availability serving refugia aquatic species. Within perspective presented above, flow–vegetation interaction problems several received significant attention. In studies, rigid rods have commonly been used simulate vegetative roughness elements without directly assessing potential. Here, an experimental study carried out investigate effect different vegetation porosity on near-bed hydrodynamics potential range simulated Specifically, field downstream, four distinct recorded using acoustic Doppler velocimetry (ADV), assuming about same solid volume fraction elements. addition, bed assessed by recording optical means (a He-Ne laser camera system) entrainment rate 15 mm particle resting uniform surface number impulses above critical value.

Interfacial destabilization and atomization driven by surface acoustic waves
Surface acoustic wave atomization is a rapid means for generating micron and submicron aerosol droplets. Little, however, is understood about the mechanisms by which these droplets form due to the complex hydrodynamic processes that occur across widely varying length and time scales. Through experiments, scaling theory, and simple numerical modeling, we elucidate the interfacial destabilization...
متن کاملRiverbed Clogging and Sustainability of Riverbank Filtration
Clogging refers to a reduction of riverbed hydraulic conductivity. Due to difficulties in determining the thickness of the clogging layer, the leakage coefficient (L) is introduced and used to quantify the recoverable portion of bank filtrate. L was determined at several riverbank filtration (RBF) sites in field tests and using an analytical solution. Results were compared with data from simila...
متن کاملCharacterization of downstream elements in a Raf-1 pathway.
At the poles of the Drosophila embryo, cell fate is established by a pathway that begins with the activation of a membrane-associated tyrosine kinase (the torso gene product); this then leads to activation of a serine/threonine kinase (Drosophila Raf-1). Activated Raf-1 then leads, by an undefined mechanism, to the transcriptional activation of the tailless (tll) gene; the tll gene product, its...
متن کاملColour Aerial Photography for Riverbed Classification
Colour aerial photography has the potential to identify and classify the size characteristics of exposed riverbed sediments over large areas efficiently. This paper describes the findings of a pilot project that sought to assess this potential and consider the impact of photo-scale on the accuracy of classifications obtained. Colour multi-scale digital imagery was acquired of a test area (120 x...
