Effective discharge calculation: a practical guide
David S. Biedenharn,Ronald R. Copeland,Colin R. Thorne,Philip J. Soar,Richard D. Hey +4 more
- 01 Aug 2000
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on a third approach to determine the channel-forming discharge, known as the effective discharge, which is the discharge that fills the channel to the top of its banks.
Classifying the hydraulic performance of riffle–pool bedforms for habitat assessment and river rehabilitation design
Joanne C. Emery,Angela M. Gurnell,Nicholas J. Clifford,Geoffrey E. Petts,Ian P. Morrissey,Philip J. Soar +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the hydraulic functioning of riffle-pool bedforms, particularly the variations in the hydraulic performance of different bed oscillation morphologies, is explored and defined by overlaying the hydraulic patch class boundaries on the bed topography to link the patches to the bed morphology.

Hydraulic Design of Stream Restoration Projects

- 01 Sep 2001
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic hydraulic design methodology to aid hydraulic engineers in the design of stream restoration projects is presented. But, the study area to which these techniques are applied must extend beyond the limits of the project site to the extent that both the project's effect on the stream system and the stream's impact on the project reach can be determined.
The anatomy of effective discharge: the dynamics of coarse sediment transport revealed using continuous bedload monitoring in a gravel‐bed river during a very wet year
TL;DR: In this article, seismic impact plates in a downstream reach of a flashy gravel-bed river (River Avon, Devon, UK) are explored in the context of plate performance.

Extreme wave events in the central Mediterranean: Geomorphic evidence of tsunami on the Maltese Islands
TL;DR: In this article, an extensive range of extreme wave signatures, both erosional and depositional, is presented for the first time and indicates a wave attack from the NE, which is consistent with the evidence from Mediterranean marginal coasts opposed to the Maltese Islands.
