Book Description
The impacts of siltation and suspended sediments on water quality and resident aquatic organisms is one of the most common problems facing resource managers today. Most construction activities in or near a watercourse have the potential to result in decreased shoreline stability and/or an increase in siltation, suspended sediments and turbidity. This annotated biliography was prepared in response to requests from seveal Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources biologists and technicians in the Southern Region. The author attempted to assemble and summarize reference material on various aspects of this topic including sources of suspended solids, physical/chemical processes, impacts to water quality and aquatic life, and remediations. This bibliography is intended to prove a consolidation and synthesis of information which is readily available for day-to-day use by field staff. Almost 1200 references are cited.

Pages : 48
Book Description
From considerations of energy balance and of mechanical equilibrium, a mathematical expression is derived relating the rates of sediment transport as bedload and as suspended load to the expenditure of power by a statistically steady flow of water.

Environmental Aspects of River Ice
Author: Norman Carl Gridley
Publisher: Saskatoon, Sask. : National Hydrology Research Institute
ISBN:
Category : Ice on rivers, lakes, etc
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
"Recognizing the lack of comprehensive information on river ice environmental problems, the National Research Council of Canada's Subcommittee on Hydraulics of Ice Covered Rivers recommended in 1988 that a Task Force be form to investigate the environmental aspects of river ice. The Task Force has assembled this state-of-the-art report in order to document current knowledge and develop recommendations for research. ... This state-of-the-art report comprises contributions by Task Force members and is organized under three major chapters: physical, chemical and biological. The editors have re-arranged original material and inserted new text to enhance the degree of coverage, to maximize consistency among authors' presentations, and to better link the various sections. A subsequent publication "Proceedings of the Workshop on Environmental Aspects of River Ice" will be published following the release of this science report at the workshop of the same name"--Introduction, pages 1-2.
