Data Interpretation for In Situ Measurements of Cohesive Sediment Erosion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Methods for interpreting data from in situ flume measurements of cohesive sediment dynamics are evaluated and a technique for estimating various erosion parameters using in situ measurements is proposed. There is currently ...
Stream Bank Erosion: In Situ Flume Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new technique for testing the erodibility of cohesive stream banks using an in situ flume is presented. The erosion rate is estimated from direct measurements of bed surface elevations by acoustic sensors. The sediment ...
Erosion of Cohesive Sediments: Resuspension, Bed Load, and Erosion Patterns from Field Experiments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: New field data on cohesive sediment erosion is presented and discussed, with particular focus on partitioning the total erosion into resuspension and bed load. The data were obtained using a recently developed in situ flume ...
Straight Benthic Flow-Through Flume for In Situ Measurement of Cohesive Sediment Dynamics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The design of a straight benthic flow-through flume for in situ studies of cohesive sediment dynamics is described including the flume structure and probes installed for routine measurements of suspended sediments and flow ...
