Predicting suspended sediment in Illinois rivers using dimensionless rating curves
Suspended sediment concentrations in Illinois are a serious concern to the environment and navigability of Illinois rivers, the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, understanding the amount of sediment in a river is important. Measuring the sediment, though, can be a lengthy, …

Analysis of sediment dynamics in intensively managed landscapes
The flux of fine sediment within agricultural watersheds is an important factor determining the environmental quality of streams and rivers. Human activity has significantly altered the hydrological and biogeochemical cycles within terrestrial and aquatic environments through agricultural …

Prediction of sedimentation and bank erosion due to the construction of Kahang Dam
… of tools for better understanding of the sediment dynamics and riverbank erosion downstream the dam will be of great benefit to researchers and policymakers. The present research employs the use of field techniques and estimation models to improve the (i) prediction of suspended sediment …

Geospatial analysis of specific degradation in South Korea
… Korea experienced many local and concentrated sediment problems such as landslides, upland erosion, rills and valleys, aggradation/degradation, and flood plain sediment deposition. These problems vary in space and time, therefore a reliable and consistent approach to model sediment processes is …

Stream Instability in Urban Watersheds and its Role in Sediment and Nutrient Loading
… watersheds typically experience an increase in sediment yield from bank material sources (Walter et al., 2007; Simon and Klimetz, 2008; Hawley et al., 2020). The research documented in this thesis seeks to determine: how best to determine whether a watershed channel is actually or potentially at …
