Bedload sediment transport regimes of urban gravel-bed rivers under different management scenarios
(University of Waterloo, 2019-12-09)Watershed urbanization profoundly alters the hydrologic characteristics of urban rivers compared to their rural counterparts. This change in hydrologic conditions in combination with alterations to the sediment supply ... -
Characterizing sediment transport and stability in remote river systems
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-26)Canada is a large country with vast networks of linear infrastructure, such as roads and pipelines, that unavoidably intersect with waterways. Engineers must be able to characterize geomorphologic processes and channel ... -
Design of a Remote, Integrated, Automatic and Continuous Bedload Sediment Transport Monitoring Station and Application in a Rural Stream in Southern Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2021-01-07)The form and function of a stream network is directly influenced by natural processes and human activities that occur within the watershed. Human modifications in the form of urban and agricultural development alter natural ... -
Development of an RFID approach to monitoring bedload sediment transport and a field case study
(University of Waterloo, 2014-04-29)Bedload transport studies are essential in the understanding of river forms, functions and processes. These studies have been done using various methods over the past century. In recent years Radio Frequency Identification ...
