Sentence examples for sedimentation load from inspiring English sources

Low stream frequency values are susceptible to high erosion and sedimentation load (Sreedevi et al. 2013).

We suggest that the observed differential survival resulted from the unique suites of environmental conditions at the two habitats, mainly in terms of sedimentation load and current velocities, yet not from differences in substratum type (artificial vs. natural).

The values of elongation ratio (Re) of the subwatersheds vary from 0.18 (SW1) to 0.29 (SW2); out of these subwatersheds SW2, SW3 and SW5 show higher Re values suggesting high infiltration capacity and low runoff, whereas subwatersheds SW1, SW4, SW6 and SW7 with lower Re values suggest susceptibility to erosion and sedimentation load (Khanday 2009).

In this study the applicability of an in situ coral intensive farming was tested, as first step of an active reef rehabilitation strategy, in the reefs of Singapore China Seaa, Western Pacific Ocean) that suffer from extreme sedimentation loads.

Sedimentation rates decreased by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; but despite these lower sedimentation rates, floodplains continue to store a significant fraction of total suspended sediment load.

Lowest sedimentation was associated with the flood with the smallest peak discharge, peak sediment concentration and sediment load.

However, if the incoming water and sediment load recovers to the mean level of the last century, main channel shrinkage due to sedimentation inevitably occurs for both wide-river and narrow-river training.

Estimations of specific hillslope erosion, sedimentation and export rates highlight the evolution of the catchment and its sensitivity to variations in the ratio of sediment load to stream discharge.

The total sediment load is constrained using sedimentation/erosion estimated from bathymetric survey data to produce continuous daily sediment transport estimates from 1849 to 1955, the time period prior to sediment load measurements.

Cold-water scleractinian corals also appear to be adversely affected by heavy sedimentation and consequently areas with high sediment loads and soft bottoms may not be suitable for coral colonisation or survival [49].

We developed a bead suspension hopper that exploits sedimentation to load beads into a microfluidic droplet generator.
