Description
Control the impact of cohesive sediments on open channels by managing the effects of silt, clay and other sediments in harbors, estuaries
and reservoirs. Cohesive Sediments in Open Channels provides you with a practical framework for understanding how cohesive sediments
are transported, deposited and eroded. One of the first books to approach the subject from an engineering's perspective, this book supplies
insight into applying hydraulic design as well as understanding the behavior of cohesive sediments in a flow field.
Audience
Environmental Engineers, Civil Engineers, Hydrologists, Water Resources Professionals, Hydrogeologists, and Coastal Engineers
