Delhi, the capital city of India is facing many problems of water shortage which are exacerbated by the population growth, urbanization, industrialization and migration. As part of the WP 7.9 of the TECHNEAU integrated project, the feasibility of the OBM process combined with river bank filtration to provide a sustainable and safe drinking water supply for Delhi is investigated within this repo...

riverbank erosion, land loss and associated sedimentation are river engineering and water resources management problems of global significance. the ability to predict riverbank stability on eroding rivers is the prerequisite of developing a channel width adjustment model and is essential for estimating riverbank erosion and associated sedimentation. in this research, a detailed model for stabil...

A fundamental challenge in river analysis and modelling is the lack of readily available and reliable information on river bank geometry. Traditional survey methods are expensive and time consuming and often difficult to execute in many river systems because of hazardous terrain or lack of access. However, as high quality aerial and satellite imagery becomes available for more of the globe, it ...

Accurate estimation of abundance is one of the most important tasks for conservation and management of the endangered species. However, the population estimation of cetaceans in riverine systems is difficult due to the limited cruise course restricted by shallow water and ship lanes. In the present study, we conducted a zigzag survey trial with towed acoustic system in the main stem of the Yang...

the concentrations and speciation of mo, together with fe, cu, and zn, in nver river sediments impacted with mo mining activities in western liaoning, northeast china, were investigated withgeochemical method. using the x-ray fluorescence and x-ray diffraction, the characterizations of metals in tailings ponds deposited along the nver river bank were analyzed. analysis and comparison of the con...

the vital need for river management is understood and predict of bank erosion processes. almost models will not be able to evaluate bank erosion,accurately. bstem model is the most usable model in many of river engineering projects in the world. necessary data for this model are related to driving and resisting forces controlled by hydraulic and geotechnical processes. these data include geomet...

annina mesopotamica (ahmed, 1971), from iraq (shat-al-arab river bank, basrah) is redescribed. a. mesopotamica can be distinguished from other species of the genus in having a pair of short and blunt dorso-lateral horns on the male pereonite 2. a revised generic diagnosis is provided for the genus annina.

Sediment yield is a key factor in river basins management due to the various and adverse consequences that erosion and sediment transport in rivers may have on the environment. Although various contributions can be found in the literature about sediment yield modeling and bank erosion monitoring, the link between weather conditions, river flow rate and bank erosion remains scarcely known. Thus,...
