Theeffectof settlingvelocityon the transport of mussel larvae in a cobble-bed river: Water column and near-bed turbulence
Simple transport models predict that the distance organisms drift downstream in rivers is determined by their settling velocity (ws), the release height (zr), and the stream velocity (U). Unfortunately, empirical evidence is lacking on whether and how factors such as ws affect mussel larvae dispersion in rivers under natural turbulent conditions. The main goal of this study was to examine how U...
متن کاملDetermining environmental flow requirements for substrate maintenance in cobble and boulder bed rivers in South Africa
To ensure a healthy and biodiverse ecosystem in cobble and boulder bed rivers, it is imperative that the channel bed is maintained. In pristine catchments this is achieved by the range of flows characteristic of the natural flow regime, which typically incorporates “maintenance” flood flows of different timing, duration and frequency. The construction of dams however, leads to a change in the f...

متن کاملsimulation of armouring process in river bed
abstract the concept of armouring is used to discuss the coarse surface layer in rivers. selective erosion in an alluvial channel reach for which there is no upstream sediment supply can lead to formation of a layer coarser than the under laying material. this phenomenon inhibits sediment transport from the reach.numerical modeling of armouring river bed, provides an approach to simulation of t...
متن کاملUnsteady Turbulence in Tidal Bores: Effects of Bed Roughness
A tidal bore is a wave propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising. It forms during spring tide conditions when the flood tide is confined to a narrow funneled channel. To date, theoretical and numerical studies rely upon physical experiments to validate the developments, but the experimental data are limited mostly to visual observations and sometimes free-surface measurements. Here...
