Socio-Hydrology of Keduang Sub-basin in Central Java, Indonesia using case study approach: Understanding the relation between hydrology of Keduang sub-basin and social aspects using qualitative case study

Since coined in 2011, socio-hydrology studies have been dominated with mathematical models developed by mostly hydrologists, which often did not take social aspects into account so seriously. Some people argued that more attention into the social part of socio-hydrology should be given, because often the social aspects were too oversimplified....

Undesirable sedimentation in the Magdalena River around the City of Barrancabermeja: The quest for an efficient solution

The reach of the Magdalena River around the city of Barrancabermeja experiences large issues concerning its navigability since the construction of the Yondó Bridge. The purpose of this study is to investigate possible causes of this poor navigability and to come up with an improvement to the current situation. The influence of bars and scour...

Sedimentation reduction and check dam design in the Cilalawi River

An overdose of sediment from the Cilalawi River is going into the reservoir Waduk Jatiluhur. This is resulting in the problem of reservoir capacity reduction. With water still coming from different rivers, the future will be inundation. In this matter the recommendation for this problem is check dam(s) and changing land use, stated by the local...

Sturende factoren erosie, transport en sedimentatie in stroomgebieden Rijn en Maas

Het Delft Cluster-project Waterkwaliteit & Calamiteiten brengt de toekomstige ontwikkeling van de water- en slibkwaliteit in beeld onder invloed van extreme gebeurtenissen (gerelateerd aan bijvoorbeeld klimaatsverandering en verandering in landgebruik) en door de mens veroorzaakte calamiteiten (zoals lozingsongelukken). Dit rapport is het...

Impact of sedimentation in the Dommel flood plain on heavy metal availability and bioaccumulation in flora and fauna

This report describes the application of the BioChem-DSS, being developed in the EU KP6-programme AquaTerra, BASIN R3 work package, with the aim to assist in the definition and improvement of management options for the Meuse region. A case study was carried out in a flood plain site of the river Dommel, a tributary to the Meuse. The present T0...

Sedimentation in the Maasmond: Non-linear statistics in Civil Engineering

Rijkswaterstaat and the Dutch contractors have many years of experience in the removal of silt and sand from the Rotterdam harbour. In all those years a great deal of valuable experience has been gained with the behaviour of silt in the harbour. They never succeeded, however in making an estimation/prediction of the amount of sedimentation which...

Planform changes and overbank flow in meandering rivers: The river Allier

In this study the river migration model MIANDRAS has been applied to simulations of the planform changes of the river Allier, a tributary of the river Loire in France. The Allier is a very dynamic and natural river system with braided and meandering river sections. Two meandering reaches of the Allier, located between Varennes-sur-Allier and...

Aanslibbing van een rivierhaven: Vermindering door aanpassing van de vormgeving van jachthavens 't Steel en La Bonne Aventure

Vermindering door aanpassing van de vormgeving van jachthavens 't Steel en la Bonne Aventure. Jachthavens aan rivieren slibben steeds verder dicht. AIs gevolg hiervan lopen de kosten voor het beheer van een dergelijke haven zo hoog op dat enkele havens misschien zelfs moeten sluiten. Daarom is er landelijk een onderzoek gestart om te bezien of...
