Abstract In the sense of challenging economic situation, it is difficult to perform laboratory tests in a whole intended area define soil characteristics for whatever task or situation within an entire city. Hence, this study has used spatial analysis through applying inverse distance weighted (IDW) technique integrate with available data 56 different samples collected from various depths Kirku...

[1] The first extensive dataset on subaqueous bed material grain size in a large river subject to reduced sediment supply is investigated alongside bathymetry, modeled flow, and sediment flux. Results suggest that following sediment supply decline and a shift to a finer sediment supply, the gravel‐sand transition (GST) in fluvial systems extends and subsequently migrates upstream. The non‐abrup...

The article considers the component composition of soil cover in areas mining sand and sand-gravel material Leningrad region. sites under study are anthropogenically transformed that have a direct indirect impact on natural cover. Direct should include burial soils dumps, complete removal profile as result quarrying changes relief. process rock can lead to change parent rock. Indirect influence...

Abstract: A tidal bore is a positive surge taking place during the flood tide under macro-tidal conditions and the bore represents the leading edge of the tidal wave propagating upstream. The fundamentals of tidal bores remain unknown, although some physical experiments were performed during the last two decades. In this study, some physical modelling was performed to investigate the tidal bore...

Local strain measurements opposite gravel contacts and around a single isolated perforation are reported for a high-density-polyethylene pipe (320 mm outside diameter, 32 mm thick) typical of that commonly used as part of the leachate collection system in municipal solid waste landfills. Emphasis is given to examining the localized effect of coarse gravel contacts on pipe strain and the strain ...

In this study constructed wetlands (CWs) were used to remove three heavy metals (Zn, Cu and Pb). The two tested substrates were made of coke and gravel, respectively. First order dynamic model was appropriate to describe removing of Zn and Cu. The experimental results showed that first dynamic removal rate constants of Zn in CWs with coke and gravel were 0.2326 h and 0.1222 h, respectively. And...

Deposits of open-framework gravel occurring in gravelly streambeds can exert a significant influence on hyporheic flow. The influence was quantified using a numerical model of the hyporheic zone. The model included open-framework gravel stratasets represented with commonly observed characteristics including a volume fraction of about one-third of the streambed sediment, a hydraulic conductivity...
