Management of turbidity current venting in reservoirs under different bed slopes.

Journal of environmental management

Chamoun S, De Cesare G, Schleiss AJ.
PMID: 28934675
J Environ Manage. 2017 Dec 15;204:519-530. doi: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2017.09.030. Epub 2017 Sep 19.

The lifetime and efficiency of dams is endangered by the process of sedimentation. To ensure the sustainable use of reservoirs, many sediment management techniques exist, among which venting of turbidity currents. Nevertheless, a number of practical questions remain unanswered...

Space and time scales in human-landscape systems.

Environmental management

Kondolf GM, Podolak K.
PMID: 23716006
Environ Manage. 2014 Jan;53(1):76-87. doi: 10.1007/s00267-013-0078-9. Epub 2013 May 29.

Exploring spatial and temporal scales provides a way to understand human alteration of landscape processes and human responses to these processes. We address three topics relevant to human-landscape systems: (1) scales of human impacts on geomorphic processes, (2) spatial...

Stress changes from the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake and increased hazard in the Sichuan basin.

Nature

Parsons T, Ji C, Kirby E.
PMID: 18600260
Nature. 2008 Jul 24;454(7203):509-10. doi: 10.1038/nature07177. Epub 2008 Jul 06.

On 12 May 2008, the devastating magnitude 7.9 (Wenchuan) earthquake struck the eastern edge of the Tibetan plateau, collapsing buildings and killing thousands in major cities aligned along the western Sichuan basin in China. After such a large-magnitude earthquake,...

Quaternary stratigraphy and paleoenvironmental evolution of the Ningbo Coastal Plain revealed by core Z02.

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology

Wang P, Zhang PX, Yang ZJ, Dong XZ, Ning K, Zhou QS.
PMID: 33650354
Ying Yong Sheng Tai Xue Bao. 2021 Feb;32(2):453-466. doi: 10.13287/j.1001-9332.202102.009.

The Quaternary sediment in the Ningbo Coastal Plain was the deposit due to sea-land interaction, which recorded information of past climate changes. The region is therefore an ideal area to study paleoclimate changes and sedimentary characteristics. We determined the...

Modelled estimates of fine sediment and particulate nutrients delivered from the Great Barrier Reef catchments.

Marine pollution bulletin

McCloskey GL, Baheerathan R, Dougall C, Ellis R, Bennett FR, Waters D, Darr S, Fentie B, Hateley LR, Askildsen M.
PMID: 33640848
Mar Pollut Bull. 2021 Apr;165:112163. doi: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2021.112163. Epub 2021 Feb 25.

The eWater Source modelling framework has been modified to support the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) Dynamic SedNet catchment modelling concept, which is used to simulate fine sediment and particulate nutrient generation, loss, and transport processes across GBR catchments. Catchment...

Macrobenthic community of a tropical bay system revisited: Historical changes in response to anthropogenic forcing.

Marine pollution bulletin

Dash B, Rout SS, Lovaraju A, Charan Kumar B, Bharati A, Ganesh T, Satyanarayana B, Raman AV, Rakhesh M, Raut D.
PMID: 34375747
Mar Pollut Bull. 2021 Oct;171:112775. doi: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2021.112775. Epub 2021 Aug 07.

The present study examines historical perspectives of the macrobenthic community in response to different phases of anthropogenic perturbations in Kakinada Bay, a tropical embayment on the east coast of India. Multivariate analysis of the snapshot data (1958-2017) revealed considerable...

Environ Sci Technol. 2011 Oct 15;45(20):8804-10. doi: 10.1021/es2019109. Epub 2011 Sep 15.

Although sediment is a natural constituent of rivers, excess loading to rivers and streams is a leading cause of impairment and biodiversity loss. Remedial actions require identification of the sources and mechanisms of sediment supply. This task is complicated...

Studies on macrobenthic organisms in relation to water parameters at East Calcutta Wetlands.

Journal of environmental biology

Basu A, Sengupta S, Dutta S, Saha A, Ghosh P, Roy S.
PMID: 24640250
J Environ Biol. 2013 Jul;34(4):733-7.

East Calcutta Wetlands is an internationally important site for natural remediation of domestic sewage and organic waste and their successful recycling into habitat for pisciculture. Macrobenthic fauna is responsible for efficient utilization of sediments and their diversity indicates health...
