Abstract:After dam construction, the flow and sediment regime change downstream from the dam. For example, the armor coat progresses because of sediment trapping by the dam. To solve these problems, 'sediment replenishment' has been executed recently. Nevertheless, it is difficult to maintain effects of sediment replenishment over the long term because the restored sediments are washed away easily in steep rivers, especially in slippery bedrock sections. Therefore, the authors have proposed techniques that promote grav… Show more
