Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xxi + 282 pages + USB card in rear pocket, NOT ex-library. A small gentle puncture right on the upper edge of the front board, otherwise great condition. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- An authoritative and comprehensive guide that delves into the dynamic processes of sediment transport and deposition in riverine systems, this book is essential reading for environmental engineers, hydrologists, geomorphologists, and researchers involved in river basin management and environmental conservation. Key features of the book include: - Fundamentals of Sediment Transport (the book provides a thorough introduction to the principles of sediment transport, including the mechanics of sediment motion, the forces acting on particles, and the different modes of sediment transport: bed load, suspended load, and wash load); - Sedimentation Processes (detailed discussions on the processes of erosion, transport, and deposition in various river environments are included; the book explores how these processes shape river morphology and influence river behavior over time); - Modeling and Simulation (the book covers state-of-the-art techniques in modeling sediment transport and river morphology changes; it discusses numerical and physical models used to predict sediment dynamics and their applications in river engineering); - Environmental and Ecological Impacts (insight is provided into the environmental and ecological consequences of sedimentation, such as habitat destruction, water quality degradation, and the impacts on aquatic life; strategies for mitigating these impacts are also discussed); - Case Studies and Applications (the book includes numerous case studies from around the world, illustrating real-world applications of sediment transport theories and models; these case studies highlight best practices and innovative solutions for managing sediment-related issues in rivers); - Sediment Management (strategies for effective sediment management are explored, including sediment monitoring, dredging practices, sediment bypass systems, and the restoration of sediment balance in river systems); - River Morphodynamics (an in-depth look at the dynamic interaction between flow, sediment, and riverbed topography is provided; the book examines how these interactions influence river channel formation, migration, and evolution); - Human Activities and Sedimentation (the book addresses the impact of human activities, such as dam construction, land use changes, and river engineering projects, on sediment dynamics; it also discusses regulatory frameworks and policies for managing these impacts); - Advanced Topics (emerging research areas and advanced topics in river sedimentation are covered, including sediment fingerprinting, sediment tracing techniques, and the use of remote sensing and GIS in sediment studies). "River Sedimentation" serves as a critical resource for understanding the complex processes governing sediment transport and deposition in river systems. It combines theoretical insights with practical applications, making it invaluable for both academics and practitioners in the field. Whether for designing sustainable river engineering projects, managing sediment-related problems, or conducting advanced research, this book offers the knowledge and tools necessary to address the challenges of river sedimentation effectively.…
