Volume loss in water reservoirs due to sedimentation is conventionally estimated from the
change in bathymetric surveys repeated five or more years apart. Despite many recent …

Multi‐frequency reservoir survey techniques offer a technological means to verify historic
sediment delivery estimates and to quantify the effectiveness of conservation …

The acoustical properties of bottom sediments in two lakes were shown to be strongly
correlated with clay content, organic C and total N concentrations, and other important …

Bathymetric and sedimentation surveys were conducted using a dual frequency (28/200
kHz) echo sounder system in two reservoirs (Lee Creek Reservoir and Lake Shepherd …

This study draws on drainage basin hydrography, numerical modeling and geographic
information system (GIS) techniques in concert with dual frequency echo sounder data to …

Wave base was calculated from standard formulae utilizing the concept of effective fetch for
a portion of northeastern Lake Ontario. Effective fetch, shown to depend significantly on the …

Multiphase suspension systems are used extensively in hydrology, biochemistry, and the
food industry. Ultrasonic spectroscopy is a rapid, on‐line, non‐invasive measurement …

Computation of accurate sediment loads in rivers where the transport of suspended
sediment is at least partially regulated by changes in the upstream sediment supply requires …

Sands and muds accumulating under the influence of apparently strong bottom currents in a
deep-water environment of Lake Superior were studied in detail using 3.5-kHz echo …

Since 1948, the USDA‐NRCS has constructed nearly 11,000 flood control dams across the
United States, and many of the reservoirs are rapidly filling with sediment. To rehabilitate …
