Annual and decadal net morphological displacement of a small gravel-bed channel

Kyle Wlodarczyk et al.

Summary: This study explores the morphological response of East Creek, a gravel-bed channel in British Columbia, Canada, to variations in flow and sediment supply over 15 years. It found that different reaches of the creek responded differently to the same hydrological events, highlighting the importance of long-term channel monitoring to assess river restoration projects.

Sediment Nourishments to Mitigate Channel Bed Incision in Engineered Rivers

Matthew J. Czapiga et al.

Summary: Engineering modifications of rivers often lead to riverbed erosion, which can be mitigated using sediment nourishments. The dumping location, grainsize, and volume of nourishments are important factors for mitigation efficacy.

Experiments on the Sediment Transport Along Pool-Riffle Unit

Marwan A. Hassan et al.

Summary: This study investigates the transport of sediment through riffles and pools in an experimental flume, and finds that sediment transport rates vary significantly across different locations. The texture of the bed surface and transported load cannot fully explain the transport trends, and population analysis suggests little difference in texture between pools and riffles.

Morphodynamics of Bedrock-Alluvial Rivers Subsequent to Landslide Dam Outburst Floods

Yongpeng Lin et al.

Summary: This study examines the morphodynamics of bedrock-alluvial rivers and the impact of landslide dam outburst floods. The simulation results reveal that during flood events, bedrock is eroded. In the following decades or centuries, landslide deposits can cover the river channel, hindering bedrock downcutting and resulting in a net rise of the bedrock surface. Eventually, a bedrock bump moves upstream and beyond the river reach over tens of thousands of years. When repeated dam breach events occur at a single site, a dynamic balance is achieved, with steeply increased bedrock slope near the dam site and gently decreased slope downstream. The study demonstrates the significant influence of landslide dam outburst floods on the behavior of bedrock channels.

Convolutional neural networks for image-based sediment detection applied to a large terrestrial and airborne dataset

Xingyu Chen et al.

Summary: Image-based grain sizing has been used as an efficient method to measure grain size compared to traditional methods. However, current automatic detection methods based on image intensity have limitations in suboptimal environments. In this study, a convolutional neural network model called GrainID was proposed to measure grain size in diverse fluvial environments. Tests showed that GrainID had high predictive accuracy and outperformed other methods, even in uncalibrated rivers with drone images. GrainID also showed less variation in results and was less affected by vegetation and noise.

Beyond Stationarity: Influence of Flow History and Sediment Supply on Coarse Bedload Transport

P. W. Downs et al.

Summary: Understanding how river bedload responds to climate and land use changes and water resource management initiatives is critical in developing sustainable approaches to river management. The relative proportion of supply-related coarse bedload yield is strongly related to the wetness of the previous year. High-resolution, multiyear passive monitoring data can reveal unique controls on bedload dynamics specific to a site's hydrogeoclimatic context.

Graded bed load transport in sediment supply limited channels under unsteady flow hydrographs

Le Wang et al.

Summary: Natural river channels affected by upstream water management practices exhibit different characteristics in bed load transport for different sediment size classes during flood hydrographs, with the temporal lag and hysteresis of sediment transport varying among fine, medium, and coarse size fractions.

Sediment Augmentation for River Rehabilitation and Management-A Review

Christian Moertl et al.

Summary: Sediment management is essential for river rehabilitation and management, with global case studies providing examples of successful sediment augmentation measures. This review introduces an objective-focused classification of these measures, along with case-specific restrictions, design approaches, and assessment methods based on literature and practical experience. The aim is to provide a comprehensive overview for applied river rehabilitation and management.

Effect of stress history on sediment transport and channel adjustment in graded gravel-bed rivers

Chenge An et al.

Summary: Results from experiments show that conditioning flow can reduce sediment transport rate during subsequent floods, but this effect is limited to a relatively short time at the beginning of the flood event. The stress history effect induced by bed reorganization during conditioning phase is likely to be erased with increasing flow and sediment transport intensity during the subsequent flood event.
