by far, different models for determining the relationship between the flow rate  and amount of precipitation have been developed. many models are based on regression models with limited assumptions. one of the most common methods for estimating  sediment of rivers is sediment rating curve. for better estimation of the amount of sediment based of sediment curve  rating equation, it is possible t...

abstract suspended sediment resulted from distributed soil erosions facilitates soil nutrients transportation and influences soil depletion. soil erosion plays a key role in loss of organic matter and therefore study of the relationship between organic matter and soil erosion processes and soil nutrient loss is very important. the present case study was conducted in kojour educational forest wa...

Modeling of stream flow–suspended sediment relationship is one of the most studied topics in hydrology due to itsessential application to water resources management. Recently, artificial intelligence has gained much popularity owing toits application in calibrating the nonlinear relationships inherent in the stream flow–suspended sediment relationship. Thisstudy made us of adaptive neuro-fuzzy ...

Abstract A study on the suspended sediment transportation downstream from the Danjiangkou Reservoir in China has shown that the dynamics of suspended sediment grain size are complicated. During the period when the reservoir was used for flood retention, the suspended sediment median size decreased gradually; after entering the period when the reservoir was used for water storage, the median siz...

Seasonal and spatial distributions of cadmium (Cd) and organic matter (OM) in sediment and suspended matter of the semi-enclosed Kaštela Bay (middle Adriatic Sea) were investigated at four stations during a one year period (April 2000 April 2001). Samples of surface sediment and suspended matter were collected monthly. One sediment core was sampled at every station at the beginning of the sampl...

In laboratory experiments, the influence of inflow and outflow sequences on the behavior of fine sediment was investigated. The experimental set-up consisted of two interconnected rectangular basins, between which water was moved back and forth. Suspended sediment concentration in the main basin as well as the sediment exchange rates were derived from turbidity measurements.The suspended sedime...

Variations of suspended sediment concentration over ripples in regular waves were described using an existing numerical model system. Nielsen’s (1992) empirical formula for sediment entrainment rate from the bed surface was used with an additional scale factor in the model system. The model system was applied to two typical laboratory experimental conditions selected for description of the vari...

The "Selection At List Time" (SALT) scheme controls sampling of concentration for estimating total suspended sediment yield. The probability of taking a sample is proportional to its estimated contribution to total suspended sediment discharge. This procedure gives unbiased estimates of total suspended sediment yield and the variance of the estimate while automatically emphasizing sampling at h...
