Book The Interactions between Sediments and Water

Download or read book The Interactions between Sediments and Water written by Brian Kronvang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on sediments as a pollutant in natural freshwater and marine habitats, and as a vector for the transfer of chemicals such as nutrients and contaminants. Sediment-water research is carried out all over the world within a variety of disciplines. The selected papers cover three main topics relating to assessment and/or restoration of disturbed watersheds, sediment-water linkages in terrestrial and aquatic environments and evaluation of sediment and ecological changes in marine and freshwater habitats. Innovative research in both developed and less developed countries is included. Both fundamental research, insight into applied research and system management are covered. The volume will also appeal to readers involved in sediment geochemistry and dynamics, aquatic habitats, water quality, aquatic ecology, river morphology, restoration techniques and catchment management.

Book The Interactions Between Sediments and Water

Download or read book The Interactions Between Sediments and Water written by R. Douglas Evans and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Association for Sediment Water Science sponsors a symposium triennially, during which the latest developments in the study of interactions between sediments and their overlying waters are presented. These proceedings are a collection of papers submitted following the 7th Symposium held in Baveno, Italy, during 22nd - 25th September, 1996. The study of sediment/water interactions crosses disciplinary and ecosystem boundaries. The work presented in this volume demonstrates the importance of multidisciplinarity to the field with papers included in the general subject areas of sediment/water dynamics, sediment/contaminant interactions, the role of sediments in element cycles, the use of sediments as historical indicators, sediment/organism interactions, and studies of sedimentary environments in remote areas.

Book Improving Surrogate Monitoring Techniques for Suspended Sediment

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quality of water of our nation0́9s rivers and streams is important to many vital uses including drinking water treatment, recreation, and the natural environment. Water quality can be severely impacted by the quantity and type of suspended sediment found therein. Because suspended sediment can be associated with many other contaminants that degrade water quality, it is noted as the most common impairment to water quality in the United States. Suspended sediment can cause significant ecological impacts to the chemical and biological characteristics of surface waters. The ability to accurately quantify suspended sediment concentrations at the appropriate time(s) and location(s) is critical in assessing whether streams are meeting their designated beneficial uses and in implementing and evaluating watershed management and mitigation plans and restoration efforts. Currently, new methods for quantifying suspended sediment concentrations use mathematical and statistical techniques to relate turbidity and suspended sediment and have been shown to be affected by several factors, including the size and characteristics of suspended sediment particles. In this research we used turbidity as a surrogate (substitute) for suspended sediment at six locations in the Little Bear River, Utah, U.S.A. We also examined the differences between single-point and width and depth integrated suspended sediment sampling at two sites. This was used to develop a method to account for the differences and improve the resulting estimates of suspended sediment concentrations. Statistical techniques were used to assess0́4in probabilistic terms0́4the duration and magnitude of potential water quality criteria exceedance. Findings highlight that among some monitoring locations with wide geographic distances, turbiditysuspended sediment relationships are not site-specific for the more frequent (90th percentile) but lower (

Download or read book Sediment and Contaminant Transport in Surface Waters written by Wilbert Lick and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-09-18 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contaminated bottom sediments and their negative impacts on water quality are a major problem in surface waters throughout the United States as well as in many other parts of the world. Even after elimination of the primary contaminant sources, these bottom sediments will be a main source of contaminants for many years to come. In order to determin

Book Silt  Turbidity and Suspended Sediments in the Aquatic Environment

Download or read book Silt Turbidity and Suspended Sediments in the Aquatic Environment written by Ontario. Ministry of Natural Resources. Southern Region. Science and Technology Transfer Unit and published by Brockville : Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Science and Technology Transfer Unit. This book was released on 1995 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impacts of siltation and suspended sediments on water quality and resident aquatic organisms is one of the most common problems facing resource managers today. Most construction activities in or near a watercourse have the potential to result in decreased shoreline stability and/or an increase in siltation, suspended sediments and turbidity. This annotated biliography was prepared in response to requests from seveal Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources biologists and technicians in the Southern Region. The author attempted to assemble and summarize reference material on various aspects of this topic including sources of suspended solids, physical/chemical processes, impacts to water quality and aquatic life, and remediations. This bibliography is intended to prove a consolidation and synthesis of information which is readily available for day-to-day use by field staff. Almost 1200 references are cited.
