The catchment of the Dashidaira reservoir located on the Kurobe River has high sediment
yield. Because of the sufficient available amount of water in the catchment during flood …

This article provides a comprehensive review and best practices for numerically simulating
hydraulic flushing for reservoir sediment management. Three sediment flushing types are …

Reservoirs represent a globally significant source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH 4),
which is emitted via different emission pathways. In some reservoirs, reservoir flushing is …

Reservoir sedimentation is one of the most crucial issues for reservoir sustainability in the
world. In many countries, various countermeasures have been implemented to decrease …

Purpose Sediment transport and riverbed sedimentation were investigated in an alpine
stream below a small hydropower reservoir desilted by a controlled sediment flushing (CSF) …

The Unazuki Reservoir is located on the Kurobe River, which is influenced by a catchment
with one of the highest sediment yields in Japan. Due to a sufficiently available discharge …

Free-flow sediment flushing operation offers viable means to preserve the storage capacity
of dam reservoirs as the incoming flood erodes the flushing channel, and the deposited …

Reservoirs have been built on rivers to provide various benefits; undesirable consequences,
however, have been resulted in. One of them is reservoir sedimentation–a large amount of …

This thesis focuses on the desiltation of Alpine reservoirs in order to sustain their long-term
utilization and restore the functioning of the bottom outlets, minimizing at the same time …

Sediment flushing is one of the proposed methods for preserving the storage capacity of
dam reservoirs. In free-flow flushing (ie, flushing with complete drawdown), the incoming …
