Abstract:
The main objective of this study is an assessment of the potential of applying land use optimization methods for minimizing the sediment yield from catchments. The study area is the Siran watershed, a subwatershed of the Tarbela watershed in Pakistan which drains directly into the Tarbela reservoir. It has an area of 4Ub sq. miles and receives 47.82 inches annual average precipitation. The main land use practices on the Siran Watershed are agriculture, rangeland grazing and forestry. A stochastic model for simulating daily precipitation and another for simulating daily maximum temperatures are

Thesis (MScEng (Civil Engineering)--University of Stellenbosch, 2009.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A study of the state of reservoir sedimentation in South Africa based on reservoir sediment deposit data, has shown that a considerable number of reservoirs have serious sedimentation problems. The analysis of the reservoir sediment deposit data showed that almost 25% of the total number of reservoirs have lost between 10 to 30% of their original storage capacity. The average storage loss due to sedimentation in South African reservoirs is approximately 0.3% per year while the average annual storag

Abstract:
Bull Run Watershed was set aside in late the 1800s as the water supply source for the City of Portland. Other than two dams being constructed, Reservoir #1 (1929) and Reservoir #2 (1962), development of the land had been minimal as public access was restricted. In the early 1960s, land management changed with increased road building and timber removal raising concerns about increased sediment discharge into the reservoirs. The objective of this study is to evaluate how much and how fast the sediment has accumulated in Reservoir #1, and to determine if the rate of sediment accumulation has chan

Abstract:
Nowadays the sediment becomes one significant problem to reservoir watershed and it is effect and related to reservoir operation system. As the research topic, an integrated sediment approach and impacts of climate change on reservoir sedimentation, there are three main parts demonstrated in this research that all parts are related together with sediment point of view. Annual sediment depositing volume in reservoir was estimated by general soil loss equation but the efficiency was not acceptable. The first part of this study shows that the efficiency is improved by using general soil loss equa

Abstract:
A physically based, distributed parameter, event oriented, nonlinear, numerical model of watershed response is developed to accommodate the spatial changes in topography, surface roughness, soil properties, concentrated flow patterns and geometry, and land use conditions. The Green and Ampt equation with the ponding time calculation for an unsteady rain is used to compute rainfall excess rates. The kinematic wave equations are used to describe the unsteady one-dimensional overland and channel flow.

Abstract:
During high flow rates, the acceleration of flow and turbulence around bridge foundations lead to scouring, defined as the removal of bed sediments. Due to the interparticle physico-chemical forces of clay particles, erodibility and transport mechanisms for fine sediments are different from those for coarse sediments, and the capability to predict the erosion resistance of fine sediments is still in question. In this study, silt-clay soil mixtures with different kaolin contents were prepared by mixing ground silica and Georgia kaolin with tap water. Geotechnical tests were carried out to obtai

Abstract:
Spatial and temporal information on catchment sediment sources and sinks can provide an improved understanding of catchment response to human-induced disturbances. This is essential for the implementation of well-targeted catchment-management decisions. This thesis investigates the nature and timing of catchment response to human activities by examining changes in sediment sources and sinks in a dry-tropical subcatchment of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) catchment area, in northeastern Australia.

Abstract:
Lake sediments have been identified as an alternative to contemporary stream monitoring to establish catchment sediment yields and infer erosion rates. This is due primarily to the longer time period over which the former is based, which makes established yields and rates more representative of means or trends in sedimentation. Studies using lake sediments to establish sediment yields have generally assumed that all the sediment contained within a lake is derived from erosion of the catchment under investigation. This study undermines this assumption by constructing a comprehensive lake sedime
