Survey and Classification of Large Woody Debris (LWD) in Streams Using Generated Low-Cost Geomatic Products
Water authorities are required to have a survey of large woody debris (LWD) in river channels and to manage this aspect of the stream habitat, making decisions on removing, positioning or leaving LWD in a natural state. The main objective of this study is to develop a new methodology that assists in decision making for sustainable management of river channels by using generated low-cost, geomat...
متن کاملLarge Woody Debris in Urban Streams of the Pacific Northwest
Large woody debris (LWD) performs key functions in undisturbed streams that drain lowland forested watersheds, including dissipation of flow energy, stabilization of bedforms and channel banks, entrapment of sediment, and formation of pools. These functions vary between individual channels, however, depending on the size and morphology of the stream, which in turn depend on climate, watershed s...
متن کاملStress partitioning in streams by large woody debris
Using simple theoretical models and field measurements from a springdominated stream, we quantify how large woody debris affect channel hydraulics and morphology at both the local and reach-averaged scales. Because spring-dominated streams have nearly constant discharge, they provide a unique natural opportunity to study flow and transport processes near the channel-forming flow. We first show ...

1. Maximum rate of cut that would provide a hillslope landslide rate of <20% over background, assuming no areas are protected by no-cut buffers .. Summary Downstream impacts to aquatic environments and property generally occur as cumulative watershed impacts, which are usually caused by changes in the transport of woody debris, water, and sediment through a watershed. The downstream cumulative ...
متن کاملMonitoring salmon habitat in small streams using streambed profiling and the importance of large woody debris for juvenile chinook salmon habitat in small Yukon streams
Thalweg profiles are longitudinal profiles of the streambed elevation measured along the deepest portion of the stream. This technique has recently been advocated as a tool to monitor fish habitat in streams because profiles can provide useful information on such habitat, and measurements are both repeatable and independent of stream flow. However, a relation between fish abundance and metrics ...
