The main objective of this study was to quantify the impacts of the run of river (ROR) scheme on the instream habitat and macroinvertebrate community. We sampled the macroinvertebrate assemblages and collected the habitat variables above and below an ROR hydropower plant: Aotou plant in the Hailang River, China. The effects of the ROR scheme on habitat conditions were examined using regulation-...

the sefidrud dam was constructed and made operational in iran in 1962. the reservoir lost a considerable amount of its storage capacity in the first two decades of its operation when about 800 mcm sediment deposited in it and by considering the total capacity, 1800 mcm, the live storage capacity was reduced by 45 percent in 1980. the gilan project authorities have attempted to recreate the rese...

Abstract With the operation of Three Gorges Project (TGP) and reservoirs in upper reaches Yangtze River, sediment transport reduced significantly lower River since 2003, leading to great changes relationship between flow sediment. In order study variation characteristics river channel under new conditions, at main hydrological stations, amount intensity erosion/deposition Hukou-Jiangyin reach, ...

Fluoride is one of the parameters which is non-degradable and naturally occurring inorganic anion found in many natural streams, lakes, and groundwater. Serious problems are faced in several parts of India due to the high consumption of fluoride through drinking water. These may cause dental and skeletal fluorosis to humans. This study aims to examine the level of fluoride in both Bharalu river...

This paper deals with the morphological changes of the lower Brahmaputra-Jamuna River (BJR) in Bangladesh. Within few decades, the planform of the river has been changed abruptly by the combined effect of natural process and human interventions. Morphological features observing in this study were river planform, channel width, bankline migration and channel bed elevation. Eighteen sets of remot...

In humid regions, where gaining river conditions generally prevail, daily hydroelectric dam releases alter downstream surface water–groundwater interactions by reversing the head gradient between river and adjacent groundwater. Previously, it has been noted that artificial stage changes due to dam releases enhance hyporheic exchange. Here we investigate the regulated Deerfield River in northwes...

The lower reach of the Red River between Winnipeg and Lake Winnipeg is very prone to ice jam flooding. The onedimensional ice jam model RIVICE was implemented for this reach to better understand the processes leading to such events and to provide a tool to evaluate strategies for ice jam mitigation. The most downstream portion of this river stretch flows through a delta and marsh system which p...
