Book Mitigation and Enhancement Techniques for the Upper Mississippi River System and Other Large River Systems

Download or read book Mitigation and Enhancement Techniques for the Upper Mississippi River System and Other Large River Systems written by Rosalie A. Schnick and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large river systems are valuable national resources that provide numerous benefits to travel, shipping, recreation, and fish and wildlife. However, efforts to expand one of the uses frequently come in direct conflict with one or more of the othersThis guide attempts to bring together all scientific data that are available on techniques that have been or can be used to offset or reduce the impacts of development and maintenance of Upper Mississippi River System or other large river systems. Decision makers are thus provided an objective descriptin of options now at their disposal when they attempt to weigh the merits of defects associated with a particular action.

Book Effects of Tow Traffic on the Resuspension of Sediments and on Dissolved Oxygen Concentrations in the Illinois and Upper Mississippi Rivers Under Normal Pool Conditions

Download or read book Effects of Tow Traffic on the Resuspension of Sediments and on Dissolved Oxygen Concentrations in the Illinois and Upper Mississippi Rivers Under Normal Pool Conditions written by Jeffrey H. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was conducted to determine the effects of single and multiple tow traffic on the resuspension of riverbed sediments and on dissolved oxygen concentrations at several locations on the Illinois and Upper Mississippi Rivers during normal pool conditions. In total, 19 separate tows were monitored on the Mississippi River and 21 tows on the Illinois River at locations chosen to correspond to upper, middle, and lower river reaches. Composite water-column samples were collected simultaneously at each sampling station at selected time intervals. Current velocity profiles, water depth, water temperature, and river stage were also measured. Dissolved oxygen measurements were made in situ at surface, mid-depth, and near-bottom strata in the main channel only. These analyses indicated that tow traffic on the Illinois and Upper Mississippi Rivers during normal pool conditions does contribute to existing levels of suspended sediment measured as both suspended solids and turbidity, and, furthermore, that sediments resuspended from the main channel do move laterally to shoreward areas, including potentially productive side channel areas. Based on the relative responses of suspended solids concentrations and turbidity levels following the passage of tow traffic on both the Illinois and Upper Mississippi Rivers, the Illinois River appears to be more susceptible to tow traffic effects than the Mississippi River. It was also shown that in most cases tow traffic did not reduce dissolved oxygen concentrations in the water column of the main channel of either river.
