Mixed sediment beaches are morphologically distinct from and more complex than either sand or gravel only beaches. Three digital imaging techniques are employed to quantify surficial grain size and bedload sediment transport rates along the mixed sediment beaches of Kachemak Bay, Alaska. Applying digital imaging procedures originally developed for quickly and efficiently quantifying grain sizes...

the sarghaye-sarnish watershed, with elongated shape and about 70.654 km2 area, is located in south of mashhad. sarghaye and sarnish rivers are the main ones in this watershed. the purpose of this study is to investigate grain size varietions based in sedimentary links and its relation to textural parameters such as sorting, skewness and kurtosis, as well as identification of sedimentary lithof...

Road maintenance agencies subjectively assess loose gravel as one of the parameters for determining road conditions. This study aims to evaluate performance deep learning-based pre-trained networks in rating images according classical methods done by human experts. The dataset consists roads extracted from self-recorded videos and Google Street View. were labelled manually, referring standard g...

Stratification and estimated paleoflow conditions for valley-fill deposits suggest that Ogallala Group streams in western Nebraska were similar to modem streams of south-central Alberta. Ogallala stratification includes medium-scale (0.5 to 2. O m thick) trough crossbedded sand and gravel, tabular indistinctly horizontally bedded and imbricated gravel, and horizontally bedded sand and pebbly sa...

This paper addresses the issue of polishing electroplating wastewater in subsurface vertical flow constructed wetland. Electroplating wastewater treatment or polishing in constructed wetlands (CWs) was studied to a very limited degree. Four types of microcosm upflow constructed wetlands were selected for the experiment based on type of bed media and the presence or absence of vegetation (Phragm...

The effects of substratum particle size (cobbles, coarse gravel and medium-fine gravel) on recolonization by benthic macroinvertebrates after disturbance was investigated in small plots (0.05 m2) in the Finniss River, an intermittent stream in South Australia. Six weeks after flow resumed, the intermediate particle size (coarse gravel) supported the greatest densities of taxa and individuals. E...

Laboratory scale studies were conducted to investigate the feasibility of Industrial by-products as potential alternative medium to conventional gravel in the drainage layer of leachate collection system as permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) for landfill leachate treatment. Industrial by-products were used to treat effectively the landfill leachate, which is an innovative in-situ remediation te...

A model is presented that simulates the effects of streamflow and sediment transport on survival of salmonid embryos incubating in spawning gravels in a natural channel. Components of the model include a 6-yr streamflow record, an empirical bed load-transport function, a relation between transport and infiltration of sandy bedload into a gravel bed, effects of fine-sediment infiltration on grav...

Incubating salmonid eggs in streambeds are often threatened by deposition of fine sediment within the gravel. To relate sedimentation of spawning gravel beds to sediment transport, infiltration of fine sediment (<2 mm in diameter) into clean gravel beds, bed material size distributions, scour-fill depths, and sediment transport during 10 storm flow events were measured in three streams of north...
