Impacts of Hydromodification and Sediment Supply Alterations on Bedload Transport and Bed Morphology in Urbanizing Gravel-bed Rivers
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-18)Urbanization is known to change the hydrologic and sediment supply regimes of rivers, causing more frequent, flashier flood events (hydromodification) and a reduction and redistribution of sediment sources. Presently, the ... -
The Impacts of Stormwater Management on Hydromodification and Bedload Sediment Transport in a Gravel-bed Stream
(University of Waterloo, 2017-09-27)Global trends of increasing urbanization have led many researchers to attempt to quantify the resulting impacts on channel morphology and on the ecological health of urban channels. Overall, there has been a lack of research ... -
Thresholds and Sediment Transport Dynamics in an Interbedded Shale and Limestone Controlled Urban Watercourse
(University of Waterloo, 2017-02-13)Sediment transport is a fundamental component of research into river morphology and related engineering practices. The relationship between flow and sediment particle entrainment underpins many of the empirical models used ...
