the offered approach is based on the establishment of the functional dependence between river water discharge (q) and suspended ms ,in a number of observations, which noticeably differs from the mean value (r) of subsequent allocated period(s). the earliest period anthropogenic component during the subsequent period(s) is the difference between an actual suspended sediment yield and its hypothe...

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...

Sediment transport relates to suspended sediment and bedload. The suspended sedi‐ ment plays the most important role on the land-ocen sediment flux. On the other hand, the bedload should be considered in order to assess the impacts of dams on sediment transport and sediment yield. Recent effects of dam construction have been widely reported. The sediment load has been reduced by more than 75% f...

SALT (Selection At List Time) is a variable probability sampling scheme that provides unbiased estimates of suspended sediment yield and its variance. SALT performs better than standard schemes which are estimate variance. Sampling probabilities are based on a sediment rating function which promotes greater sampling intensity during periods of high sediment yield. When preparing to monitor usin...

The Town Creek watershed is located in the Southeastern Plains Ecoregion in Mississippi. Its total area covers 1,769 km and represents approximately 50% of the upper Tombigbee River basin area contributing to the Aberdeen Pool on the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. The sediment yield from the watershed attributes to the estimated 320,000 T yr of deposition in Aberdeen pool, where annual dredging ...

there is a lack of accurate and correct information about erosion in iran. moreover, there is a big difference between measurements and estimations. sediment is also an important environmental problem which pollutes water physically and chemically and therefore, sediment problem is usually studied as environmental problems. estimation of sediment yield of drainage basins is important for preven...

An application of regression relationships depending on geomorphic parameters is proposed to predict the amount of the average annual suspended sediment yield at different sections of the drainage network. Simple and multiple regression relationships, utilising the drainage density and the hierarchical anomaly index as independent variables, based on data from 20 river basins of different size ...

identifying sediment sources is one of important factors in selecting of appropriate method of erosion control and soil conservation. the main objective of this study is to estimateuncertainty and contribution of forest roads to sediment yield in ziarat drainage basin, gorgan city using geochemical tracers. for this purpose, 47 soil samples were collected from different sources with different l...
