Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 110. The natural flow of almost every river in the United States has been modified to meet various socioeconomic goals—navigation, irrigation, power generation and flood control. The success of the dams and reservoirs built to achieve these goals has been accompanied by changes in the status of riverine resources downstream, a cause of growing environmental and ecological concern. For example, before Glen Canyon Dam was completed, the Colorado River transported large quantities of sediment in floods as large as 8500 m3/s. After the dam was closed in 1963, dam releases typically were less than the powerplant capacity of 890 m3/s and exhibited large daily flow fluctuations. The river carried little sediment. The daily fluctuations in flow eroded sand bars, and the smaller, controlled flow did not redeposit them. The clear, cold water resulted in increased aquatic productivity such that rainbow trout and other nonnative fishes thrived while most native species were lost or endangered.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colorado River Sand Budget: Lees Ferry to Little Colorado River The objective of this analysis is to demonstrate an approach to sand balance analysis in the Grand Canyon. We will determine how annual variations in sand input from the Paria River affect the balance of river-stored sand in the Colorado River between the Paria and Little Colorado Rivers under alternative conditions of annual sand transport capacity in the Colorado River. It will be shown that flow fluctuations and corresponding sand transport in the Colorado River can be managed to achieve a balance with long-term average annual sand inputs from the Paria River. However, it will further be shown that the variability in annual tributary sand mputs means that even under conditions of long-term sediment balance, there will inevitably be periods of fairly substantial deficits in river-stored sand. The implications of this analysis for dam operations are discussed. Specifically, the implications of six hypothetical flow release patterns from Glen Canyon Dam on annual sand transport are evaluated. The reach between Paria River and Little Colorado River is the focus of this analysis, because this reach is most susceptible to management-induced reductions in sand storage. Objectives for sediment management along the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon were developed by the Grand Canyon National Park as part of 1ts river management planning process. Those objectives are: 1) to maintain a positive sand balance, and 2) to maintain the range of morphologic features associated the temporary storage of sand in the river system sandbar deposits, high-flow terrace deposits, return channels.
