The present study intended to review the historical development of regime geometry equations proposed by many researchers since 1895. Kennedy started search for attributes stable channels on Upper Bari Doab Canal Punjab in 1980-1984. concept was presented Lindley (1919) that later Lacey (1930) modified a set most widely used relations. Later on, Blench (1941-1957), and Simons Albertson (1960) t...

The spatial variability in the concentrations of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(p-chlorophenyl) ethane (DDT) in surface soils was studied on the basis of the analysis of 131 soil samples collected from the surface layer (0-20 cm depth) of the alluvial region of Beijing, China. The concentrations of total HCHs (including alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-isom...

The genus Vitis is represented by several coexisting species in Europe. Our study focuses on naturalised rootstocks that originate in viticulture. The consequences of their presence to the landscape and to native European species (Vitis vinifera ssp. silvestris) are evaluated. This study compares ecological traits (seven qualitative and quantitative descriptors) and the genetic diversity (10 SS...

when a dam is constructed on a river path, inevitably sedimentation of alluvial materials occurred. therefore, the initial capacity of the reservoir reduce gradually, and if don’t predict the effects of this phenomena and its proper control methods, the application of the reservoir may be affected. the findings of this thesis confirm that, the sedimentation in reservoirs and the variations of t...

The paper presents recommendations for using the results obtained in sediment transport simulation and modeling of channel deformations rivers. This work relates to issues empirical water flow characteristics natural riverbeds with a movable bottom (alluvial channels) which are extremely complex. study shows that calculation rivers, it is expedient use dependences Chézy’s coefficient assessing ...

The evolution of fault slip through time may yield insight into the geodynamics of deforming lithosphere. Precise determination of temporal variations in fault slip is often hindered, however, by a dearth of markers of varying age from which to reconstruct fault slip. Here we determine slip rates across the White Mountain Fault Zone over the past ca. 0.8 Ma from displaced alluvial deposits pres...

17 Abstract—This study outlines a method for generating an 18 automated micro-landform map of an alluvial plain for 19 further flood hazard assessment by combining Shuttle Radar 20 Topographic Mission Digital Elevation Model (SRTM DEM) 21 and satellite images. Average elevation and channel features 22 extracted from DEM are associated with soil moist condition 23 (thresholds of Modified Normali...

In specific geological contexts, such as alluvial environments, the lithology is highly heterogeneous and laterally variable. As a result, a large number of lithological data are collected (generally random and under sampled) for stratigraphic reconstruction. The integrated management of geo-lithologic data causes major methodological problems, because data obtained from geognostic investigatio...

Samples of a naturally bioreduced, U-contaminated alluvial sediment were characterized with various microscopic and spectroscopic techniques and wet chemical extraction methods. The objective was to investigate U association and interaction with minerals of the sediment. Bioreduced sediment comprises approximately 10% of an alluvial aquifer adjacent to the Colorado River, in Rifle, CO, that was...
