Sedimentology of the of Zayandeh-Rood River alluvial Terraces and the sediment source identification
In this research, three alluvial Terraces that are located in pathway of Zayandeh-Rood River are studied. The river starts from Bakhtiayri Zardkoh mountain and after through Esfahan city ends to Gawkhony lake. Age of alluvial terraces is younger in upstream than downstream and the height level of the terraces decrease relative to current river bed toward the downstream. The terraces were sample...
متن کاملSediment delivery processes at basin scale
Abstract Since eroded sediments are produced from different sources distributed throughout a basin, sediment delivery processes at basin scale have to be modelled by a spatially distributed approach. In this paper a new theoretically based relationship is proposed for evaluating the sediment delivery ratio, SDR{, of each morphological unit, i, into which a basin is divided. Then, using the sedi...
متن کاملRegime Shift Identification of Runoff and Sediment Loads in the Yellow River Basin, China
Runoff and sediment loads have exhibited significant changes over the past six decades in the Yellow River Basin, China. The current study evaluates the changing trends and regime shifts in runoff and sediment loads at both the annual and monthly time scales. The associated spatial and temporal variations are analyzed by a sequential t-test analysis of the regime shifts (STARS) approach and the...
متن کاملTemporal Variation of Streamflow, Sediment Load and Their Relationship in the Yellow River Basin, China
Variation of streamflow and sediment load in the Yellow River basin has received considerable attention due to its drastic reduction during the past several decades. This paper presents a detailed investigation on the changes of streamflow and sediment load from 1952 to 2011 using monthly observations at four gauging stations along the Yellow River. The results show significant decreasing trend...
متن کاملThe effect of land use and discharge changes on the coefficients of suspended sediment rating curve in Zagros forest areas
Extended abstract 1- Introduction The forests of the Zagros vegetation area cover about six million hectares (40%) of Iran's forest area, which is dominated by oak species. These forests are exposed to a number of threats, including land use change, deforestation, over grazing, deliberate and unintentional fires, pest and disease attacks, and climate change. Although accurate and timely...
