The rate of bank erosion by the Zambezi River downstream of Lake Kariba is discussed. Probable reasons for the apparently excessive rate of erosion in parts of the bank are the out-of-season flooding, sudden changes in water level due to operations at Lake Kariba, the silt-free water leaving...
Gravel beach nourishment, as a new performance to beach conservation, has rapidly developed in coast defense of the world. Due to its coarse particle size and high porosity, the gravel beach has the capability to filter water out when they are under wave actions. The higher penetration rate ...
Waterfall, area where flowing river water drops abruptly and nearly vertically (see video). Waterfalls represent major interruptions in river flow. Under most circumstances, rivers tend to smooth out irregularities in their flow by processes of erosion a
Inriversandestuaries, the erosion of banks is caused by the scouring action of the moving water, particularly in times offloodand, in the case of estuaries, also by the tidal flow on theebb tidewhenriverand tidewatercombinein their erosive action. This scouring action of the moving water en...

1.River Sediment In France,due to more coastal development projects,increasing attention is paid to the transportation of fine sand and clay in these coastal areas.The transportation of these fine particles not only depends on force,but also on the physical and chemical properties of the particle...
The rate of river migration affects the stability of Arctic infrastructure and communities1,2 and regulates the fluxes of carbon3,4, nutrients5 and sediment6,7 to the oceans. However, predicting how the pace of river migration will change in a warming Arctic8 has so far been stymied by conf...
or other storage sites including channel migration, bank widening, and avulsion (Hupp and Phillips, 1997). In a predominantly humid and semi-humid climate like the Congo River Basin (CRB), the main erosion agent is water, although wind erosion may also exist on exposed hill slopes and ...
