Sentence examples for flood sediments from inspiring English sources

Flood frequency based on dated flood sediments has been high since about 1850CE when average stream flow was high, and flood frequency and discharge were low during the Little Ice Age (LIA).

Changing in cultivation practices and removing layer of flood sediment in shallow sedimentation area are the major overcomes against the flood sediments.

Most paleoflood studies rely on stratigraphic sequences of fine-grained flood sediments deposited in slackwater and eddy environments in bedrock rivers to enable calculation of robust palaeodischarge estimates for floods that occurred during recent centuries or millennia.

The coarse grained cold phase deposits are covered by inter-bedded, horizontally-laminated silt and sand (representing flood sediments that often contain reworked soil material), during the (cold to warm) transitional phases.

The most recent advances include (1) new techniques for the accurate geochronology of flood sediments, notably TAMS radiocarbon analyses and OSL dating, and (2) the phenomenal increase in computer power that allows complex hydraulic calculations to become feasible for routine studies.

Applied flood geomorphology deals with the extension of flood records into the past from flood sediments, hydromorphological mapping of channel and floodplain landforms, and analysis and quantification of morphodynamic processes such as channel migration and sediment transport in response to individual or sequential flooding.

In this study, a coupled two-dimensional hydrodynamic, sediment transport and morphological model is applied to evaluate the impact of different river and basin management strategies on the flood inundation, sediment transport dynamics and morphological changes within extreme flood events of different magnitudes.

Furthermore, different basin management action plans, such as engineering structure modifications, may also greatly affect the flood inundation, sediment transport, solute transport and morphological processes within extreme flood events.

Then he fossilized beautifully in flood sediment.

Prevailing SW winds that were funneled across EF remobilized flood sediment into sand dunes, sand sheets, and loess.

Field measurement and information from questionnaire survey showed that the depth of the flood sediment are highly variable in impacted zones.
