This study investigated the characteristics and major influencing factors of CBD in the meanders of the Middle Yangtze River (MYR), and proposed a formation condition for CBD. Concave-bank deposition occurred in 10 of 23 meanders in the MYR, including two types: counter point bar (CPB) and concave-bank bench (CBB). CPB occurred in both mildly-curved and sharp bends, while CBB only occurred in sharp bends. Hydrodynamic conditions and sediment supply are two major factors controlling the formation of CBD. The incoming sediment load remained in an amount of 0.68 × 10<sup>8</sup> t/y at Jianli and 0.77 × 10<sup>8</sup> t/y at Luoshan after Three Gorges Project operation, therefore, CBD development was not limited by a lack of sediment and instead is mainly dependent on the hydrodynamic conditions in the MYR. Flow separation zones were observed in the typical CBD-type bends of the MYR, which indicated that CBD was the result of flow separation or recirculation. An adverse longitudinal water surface gradient is the necessary condition for the formation of concave-bank flow separation. Therefore, a formation condition for CBD was proposed based on this assumption, which considered the combined effects of channel resistance, riverbed slope, channel widening, and curvature. CBD happens when the channel widening and curvature terms are greater than the channel resistance and longitudinal channel slope terms. The proposed condition was verified based on the data of the 23 bends in the MYR and 26 bends in 12 other rivers. The results indicated that more than 85% of the bends were correctly identified. Therefore, the proposed formation condition provided considerably high accuracy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50290,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sediment Research","volume":"39 6","pages":"Pages 903-915"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate prediction of flow resistance and dune geometry (length and height) is essential for environmental engineering and river management.

The first model, RANN–AHA is a hybrid artificial intelligence model using the recurrent artificial neural network (RANN) linked with the artificial hummingbird optimization algorithm (AHA) to optimize the biases and weights of the neural network model. The second model uses gene expression programming (GEP) as a nonlinear approach based on a genetic algorithm (GA) and genetic programming (GP) to explicitly determine dune characteristics.

Several factors are involved in the erosion process: rain erosivity, soil fragility, and degraded land cover on steep slopes associated with the intensification of inappropriate human practices. Thus, identifying erosion vulnerable sub-watersheds based on the assessed soil loss rate is very important to apply suitable conservation measures. The current research aimed to prioritize risky areas in the Lakhmess watershed, north-west Tunisia via the Soil Erosion Assessment using Geographical Information System (SEAGIS) model. To prioritize sub-watersheds vulnerable to soil erosion and sediment yield, the Lakhmess watershed, covering an area of 162 km<sup>2</sup>, was divided into 16 sub-watersheds (L1–L16), according to the hydrographic network. Then, the mean annual soil erosion rate and the mean annual sediment yield in the watershed were estimated by integrating the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the Sediment Delivery Ratio (SDR) in the SEAGIS model and their spatial distribution was determined. The obtained results indicate that the estimated average annual soil erosion rate is 4.2 t/ha/y and the annual sediment yield is 2.6 t/ha/y. Maner's SDR model was selected as the best model for estimating SY, with standard error, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation values of 0.75%, 0.01, and 0.45%, respectively. The prioritization of the Lakhmess sub-watersheds based on the estimated soil loss rate reveals that among the 16 sub-watersheds, three sub-watersheds (L10, L12, and L15) were identified as being in a very high priority soil erosion class. The high soil erosion rate and sediment yield in these sub-watersheds is explained by the steep slope and a high rainfall erosivity factor. Six sub-watersheds (L2, L4, L5, L6, L7, and L16) were found to belong to a very low priority soil erosion class, as they are characterized by a very gentle slope, which appears to be an extremely determining factor. These findings constitute a basis for decision makers to plan effective conservation measures to conserve agricultural lands, soil, and water resources in northwestern Tunisia.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50290,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sediment Research","volume":"39 6","pages":"Pages 868-884"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142186087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Experimental investigations were done to study the flow field in the vicinity of one cycle, two cycle, and three cycle piano key weirs (PK weirs) with noses to monitor the sediment passing capacity of the weir. The three dimensional (3D) velocities were measured close to the inlet and outlet keys using an acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV). The velocity fields near both the inlet and outlet keys were examined, and it was found that there were considerable increases in the vertical (<em>v</em>-component) and lateral (<em>w</em>-component) velocities. Added to this, it was seen that the mean vertical velocity was more in front of the outlet key as compared to the front of the inlet key while the mean lateral and longitudinal velocities were low. The maximum velocity was observed in front of the inlet key which resulted in an increase of sediment movement over the PK weir. Furthermore, 2.6%–5.2% of the total sediment passing over the upstream portion of the weirs are flushed over the inlet key by self-cleaning. The flow field over the keys could not be accurately estimated using an ADV, possibly due to the flow complexity so computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were done to understand the complex flow field for all the three PK weirs using a CFD solver which needs less computational cost and space. The widely used standard <em>k</em>–<em>ε</em> turbulence model (an eddy-viscosity model) was applied in the current numerical investigations.

Quantifying the impact of these events is becoming increasingly important, as sediment disturbance is predicted to intensify because of growing anthropogenic activity combined to the effects of current climate change. In this paper, the effects of a sediment pulse event on riverbed morphology and, in turn, on fish habitat availability are assessed in a regulated river, located in the southern European Alps. Specifically, four target fish species were selected: marble (<em>Salmo marmoratus</em>) and brown trout (<em>Salmo trutta</em>), grayling (<em>Thymallus thymallus</em>), and bullhead (<em>Cottus gobio</em>). The investigated event was triggered by the effects of localized landslides combined with an uncontrolled sediment release from a hydropower reservoir. A pre-post event integrated approach was applied, involving topographic surveys, fine sediment deposition measurements, and eco-hydraulic modeling. Habitat availability analysis was done using two-dimensional steady-state channel-flow simulation and standard habitat suitability modeling, with univariate suitability curves as biological input. The investigation focused on two river reaches, quite close each other, but characterized by significantly different streamflow patterns, due to the layout of the local hydropower system. The results showed that noticeable riverbed fining occurred at both study reaches after the pulse, with the maximum thickness of the fine sediment deposits up to one meter, and higher amounts of deposition detected in areas wetted at baseflow. Moreover, for both reaches, recovery to the pre-event riverbed grain-size condition occurred in about a year, but with differences related to different streamflow patterns. Pre-post topographic comparison showed that areas of erosion prevailed over areas of deposition, and fine sediment deposition was not systematically associated to the riverbed elevation raise. Simulated habitat availability was affected by both topographic changes and fine sediment deposition, with the latter predominantly impacting juveniles and the most bottom dwelling species, i.e., the bullhead. The study confirms the need for improving the management of the hydro-sedimentary regime of regulated rivers to preserve the habitat of fish species, particularly of those characterized by conservation status already endangered.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50290,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sediment Research","volume":"39 4","pages":"Pages 514-530"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1001627923000665/pdfft?md5=2947c24cd89524d6a698e3efcb6a9b31&pid=1-s2.0-S1001627923000665-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138495915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study presents a novel gravel automatic sieving (GAS) method designed to improve the accuracy and reliability of particle size analyses. At the macroscopic, the method utilizes the convex hull property of gravel to define the maximum extent of the searched gravel, effectively reducing over and under-segmentation problems. At the microscopic, the accuracy of gravel segmentation is improved by analyzing the color space characteristics of gravel to identify the pixel patches of gravel accurately. To validate the effectiveness of the GAS method, the proposed method was tested in both the laboratory and the field. In the laboratory, four artificial samples were processed using the GAS method, and the results were compared with those obtained using the traditional sieving method. The results showed that the correlation coefficients between the GAS method and the traditional sieving method ranged from 94.3% to 97.8%, and the relative errors ranged from 5.8% to 20.9%, demonstrating the validity of the GAS method. In addition, the application of ImageJ software to manually identify the particle size method (ImageJ method) was also compared with the mechanical sieving method, and the correlation coefficient between the two methods was greater than 98.2%, and the relative error was less than 10.9%, so the ImageJ method can be used as a standardized method to measure the other methods.

To address these limitations, the current study proposes two methods: (1) the division of the study area into zones based on key factors influencing gully formation, reducing the need for TI model calibration, and (2) a pixel-based binary classification approach coupled with a precision performance metric to identify the calibrated CT value within a watershed. The performance of seven TI models for predicting EG length was evaluated using local validation within zones and transferred validation between zones. Local validation demonstrated that among the TI models, modified stream power index (MSPI), stream power index (SPI), and compound topographic index (CTI), in descending order, yielded the most accurate predictions for EG length. Furthermore, the decrease in accuracy observed in the transferred MSPI model compared to the local MSPI model supported the study's hypothesis that dividing a large-scale area into distinct zones with varying topographic and climatic characteristics enables the determination of a CT value specific to each zone.

Generally, these sedimentary structures commence at the individual plant level, but sediment accumulation over time may lead to the formation of fluvial islands. Additionally, riparian vegetation exposed to current may provoke local scouring. However, little research has been done on how the permeability of plants affects flow fields and sedimentary processes. Therefore, the main aim of the current study is to experimentally investigate patterns of local scour and deposition around artificial obstacles with six different levels of porosity, using a systematically designed flume experiment. Two experimental setups were implemented, with sediment transport occurring either as bed load or in suspension. Porosity, as a measure of the volume of porous space to bulk volume, was determined using optical porosity which was estimated from digital photographs. Furthermore, VISS of individual <em>P. nigra</em> shrubs were investigated at different seasonal stages (leafless and full foliage) at the Loire River, France, for comparison. Results show that increasing porosity caused a reduction in sediment deposition from suspension and locally scoured bed load sediment. A threshold value for optical porosity was determined, at which point a prolonged area of flow calm develops behind the barrier, promoting the accumulation of suspended sediment and suppressing local scour caused by bed load transport. An empirical model is presented, which assesses sediment erosion and deposition volumes at porous obstructions, considering (a) the flow-exposed surface area, (b) the obstruction's optical porosity, and (c) the intensity of the incoming flow. On the field scale, local scour holes were identified at <em>P. nigra</em> shrubs where flood-caused debris obstructions were stuck at their front, lowering the obstruction's porosity and encouraging local scour processes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50290,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sediment Research","volume":"39 4","pages":"Pages 497-513"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1001627924000623/pdfft?md5=50f8432cf82ad8e74dd4e8efacca888c&pid=1-s2.0-S1001627924000623-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141511047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
