Title | Specification of Sediment Maintenance Flows for a Large Gravel-Bed River |
Creator | Wilcock, Peter Kondolg, G. M. G., W. V., Matthews Barta, A. F. |
Description | Reservoir releases may be specified to flush interstitial fine sediment from gravel beds in the river downstream. Choice of an effective flow depends on trade-offs among discharge, flow duration, and pool dredging as they determine rates of bed mobilization, sand removal, and gravel loss. A basis for evaluating these trade-offs is developed with an approximate method appropriate to the sparse data typically available. Sand and gravel transport are represented with rating curves.
