Hydrologic modeling of semi-arid watersheds is imperative for the development of appropriate water and soil conservation plans. In the current study, the efficiency of Kinematic Runoff and Erosion model-version 2 (K2) model was used to evaluate water discharge and sediment load simulation of Bar watershed, located in the north-eastern part of Iran. The K2 model relies on the kinematic wave appr...

Subglacial discharge influences glacier basal motion and erodes and redeposits sediment. At tidewater glacier termini, discharge drives submarine terminus melting, affects fjord circulation, and is a central component of proglacial marine ecosystems. However, our present inability to track subglacial discharge and its variability significantly hinders our understanding of these processes. Here ...

Introduction: Ever since the first recognition of channels on Mars, attempts to estimate the flow characteristics of channel systems and their sediment transport consequences have been a holy grail of martian hydrological and sedimentological studies [1-4]. Previous attempts were severely hampered by the lack of sufficiently precise data to perform the necessary calculations. The MOLA data set ...

Forestry best management practices (BMPs) are used to reduce sedimentation from forest stream crossings. Three BMP treatments (BMP ́, BMP-std, and BMP+) were applied to three forest road stream crossings (bridge, culvert, and ford). BMP ́ did not meet existing BMP guidelines, BMP-std met standard recommendations, and BMP+ treatments exceeded recommendations. Following BMP applications, three simu...

Accurately determining sediment loads is necessary for managing river environments but difficult because multiple processes can lead to large discharge-independent changes in transport. Thus, estimations of load using discharge–sediment rating curves fit sparse or historical sediment-transport measurements be inaccurate, necessitating alternative approaches reduce uncertainty. Continuous uncert...

Better understanding of suspended sediment transport processes allows for better management of both rivers and coasts. Based on field data and sediment transport energy theory, this study presents an analysis on the suspended sediment hysteresis in the Lower Tenryu River of Japan in connection to the channel carrying capacity of suspended sediment and morphological characteristics. The transpor...
