Climatic and geologic controls on suspended sediment flux in the Sutlej River Valley, western Himalaya
The sediment flux through Himalayan rivers directly impacts water quality and is important for sustaining agriculture as well as maintaining drinking-water and hydropower generation. Despite the recent increase in demand for these resources, little is known about the triggers and sources of extreme sediment flux events, which lower water quality and account for extensive hydropower reservoir fi...
متن کاملMultispectral Remotely Sensed Models for Monitoring Suspended Sediment: A Case Study of Indus River, Pakistan
Soil erosion is a widespread problem causing the deterioration of both land and water resources. The water quality and quantity “Q and Q” connection is vital for sustainable water resources development and management. The prime objective of the research work is to quantify suspended sediment concentrations in surface waters by means of ALOS and ASTER satellite data. In this research work multis...
متن کاملCharacter and History of the Upper Ohio River Valley
Dismemberment of the preglacial Teays Valley system and development of the present Ohio River valley began in late Tertiary or early Pleistocene. By Illinoian time the present Ohio River was largely established in its present course, except for its headwaters above mile 114, which still flowed northward. The Illinoian glacial advance into northwestern Pennsylvania caused diversion of this porti...
متن کاملConstrain on Sediment flux Dependent River in incision
Transport of bedload sediment is one of the main processes that contribute to bedrock incision in a river and is therefore one of the key control parameters in the evolution of mountainous landscapes. In recent years, many studies have addressed this issue through experimental setups, direct measurements in the field, or various analytical models. In this article, we present a new direct numeri...
