Abstract: This note is devoted to the correction of an error in a calculation contained in a classical published paper on the plunging of river flows as they enter lakes or reservoirs. The correction of the error provides a felicitous ...

Abstract: During summer 2017, two parallel trenches were excavated in the Sagavanirktok River (located in northern Alaska, United States) to acquire construction material for roadwork on the Dalton Highway nearby. A study to estimate ...

Abstract: The capacity to store water in a reservoir declines as it traps sediment. A river entering a reservoir forms a prograding delta. Coarse sediment (e.g., sand) deposits in the fluvial topset and avalanching foreset of the ...

Abstract: Debris flows occur under water, e.g., in lakes and the ocean, as well as under air. These two types of debris flow have many similarities, but also differ in striking ways. The focus of the research reported here is on the ...

Abstract: Rivers located on the North Slope of Alaska’s Brooks Range are typically not well characterized with respect to basic hydraulic and sedimentological data. In order to obtain basic hydrosedimentological information on the ...
