This book was released on 1988 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A combined office and field study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of constructing a navigation channel in the Brazos River Diversion channel (BRDC). The evaluation was made through an analysis of existing data and a computation of shoaling rates. The office study consisted on an evaluation of the shoaling history of the area, which was determined through quantification of shoreline migration rates, and volumetric changes in the growth of the BRDC delta. Nearshore available longshore sediment transport quantities and rates were determined using Littoral Environment Observation (LEO) data. A two-dimensional (2-D) laterally averaged numerical model was used to predict sediment transport in the BRDC for the proposed channel dimensions. A second 2-D numerical-wave refraction/diffraction model was used to predict wave propagation over the Brazos River ebb-tide delta and adjacent regions. Field data utilized to run the numerical models consisted of water surface elevations, current velocities, salinities, suspended sediment concentrations, nearshore sediment samples, and bathymetric survey data. Considerations of the hydraulics in the lower BRDC suggest sediment transport occurs on a seasonal basis, resulting in periodic flushing and shoaling conditions. Shoaling rate calculations for the proposed channel dimensions of 12-ft deep by 125-ft wide, with 6-ft overdredging predict an annual maintenance dredging requirement of 735,000 cu yd, with an estimated project duration of approximately 4 months.
Download or read book Framing the Challenge of Urban Flooding in the United States written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-04-29 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flooding is the natural hazard with the greatest economic and social impact in the United States, and these impacts are becoming more severe over time. Catastrophic flooding from recent hurricanes, including Superstorm Sandy in New York (2012) and Hurricane Harvey in Houston (2017), caused billions of dollars in property damage, adversely affected millions of people, and damaged the economic well-being of major metropolitan areas. Flooding takes a heavy toll even in years without a named storm or event. Major freshwater flood events from 2004 to 2014 cost an average of $9 billion in direct damage and 71 lives annually. These figures do not include the cumulative costs of frequent, small floods, which can be similar to those of infrequent extreme floods. Framing the Challenge of Urban Flooding in the United States contributes to existing knowledge by examining real-world examples in specific metropolitan areas. This report identifies commonalities and variances among the case study metropolitan areas in terms of causes, adverse impacts, unexpected problems in recovery, or effective mitigation strategies, as well as key themes of urban flooding. It also relates, as appropriate, causes and actions of urban flooding to existing federal resources or policies.
