Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of 137Cs Activity to Investigate Sediment Movement and Transport Modeling in River Coastal EnvironmentM. E. Toriman, Muhamad Barzani Gasim, Zulkifli Yusop et al.Conflicts between human and environment always triggered to sedimentation and erosion problems within the coastal areas, Therefore understanding sediment transport processes in a river estuary and coastal waters was important when studying sediment transport and mobility within the river coastal environment. This article aims to investigate the sediment transport and mobility of the Kemaman River estuary, Terengganu Malaysia. In this … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 22 Jun 2012 · 7,764 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTemporal Variability on Lowland River Sediment Properties and YieldMohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin, Mohd Ekhwan Toriman, A.S. Sharifah Mastura et al.Problem statement: A sediment analysis study was conducted at the Chini River on 16 and 31 August 2008. This study was conducted to review the formation of suspended sediment load in the Lake Chini catchment area, which flows into the Pahang River via the Chini River. Approach: Three sampling stations were chosen, the first one at upstream Chini River (S1), … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,188 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Suspended Sediments Concentration in Surface Waters, Using Modis ImagesMobasheri Mohammad RezaRemote sensing from air-borne and space-borne sensors have proved to be a useful method for Suspended Sediment Concentration (SSC) estimation as it provides an instantaneous and synoptic view of suspended sediments that would otherwise be unavailable. The reason for the success of remote sensing in such surveys is the strong positive relationship that exists between SSC and remotely sensed water … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,006 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVisible Derivative Spectroscopic Monitoring of the Old Woman Creek National Estuary During a Historically Dry Year and a Wet YearLorita Nivanthi Mihindukulasooriya, Brenna Shae Mabry, Madison Slocum, Joseph Daniel OrtizVisible derivative spectroscopy was used to interpret the sediment and phytoplankton assemblages within the old woman creek natural estuarine reserve during the summers of 2016 and 2017. A Varimax-rotated Principal Component Analysis (VPCA) of reflectance data collected from four sampling sites in 2016 identified three Varimax-rotated Principal Components (VPCs): Diatom + Illite (2016-VPC 1), Dinoflagellate Algae + Cyanobacteria + Cryptophytes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 6 · 11 Jul 2024 · 4,669 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentifying Nutrient Contributors in North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater RiversNarayan B. Rajbhandari, Sushama Pradhan, Mauro Di Luzio et al.The goal of this study was to assess potential nitrogen and phosphorus contribution from point sources and non-point sources in North East Cape Fear River (NECFR) watershed in North Carolina. A watershed scale hydrologic model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), was used to quantify Total Nitrogen (TN) and Total Phosphorus (TP) loadings to North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater Rivers. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 7,389 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrological and Sediment Transport Simulation to Assess the Impact of Dam Construction in the Mekong River Main ChannelSatoshi Kameyama, Hiroto Shimazaki, Seiichi Nohara et al.The downstream impact of dams is a complex problem in watershed management. In the upper Mekong River watershed and its main channel, dam construction projects were started in the 1950s to meet increasing demands for energy and food production. Dams called the Mekong Cascade were completed on the Mekong River in China, the Manwan Dam in 1996 and the Dachaoshan … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 29 Jun 2013 · 8,571 accessesView PDF Cite
