1 Sediment Transport Measurements in Alluvial Rivers! Sediment Transport Measurements 1
2 Sediment transport mechanisms! ISO 3716, Liquid flow measurement in open channels - Functional requirements and characteristics of suspended sediment load samplers (definition of sediment loads)! Sediment Transport Measurements 2
3 Which kind of rivers considered?!! This presentation is about sand and gravel bed rivers, which morphology is influenced by sediment transport!! Are not considered here:!! Rivers with only wash load, where the suspended load behaves as a quality parameter of the water!! Rivers with very coarse sediment, such as pebbles, cobbles and rocks which transport rate cannot be measured directly with samplers, only indirectly! Sediment Transport Measurements 3
4 Which kind of rivers considered?!! In rivers with mainly wash load, the solid discharge can be obtained by multiplying the flow discharge with the sediment concentration!! In rivers with very coarse material, main sediment transport mode is bed load and flow velocities are very high during floods, so that samplers cannot be lowered safely in the water! Sediment Transport Measurements 4
5 Why sample gravel/sand bed rivers?!! In gravel and sand bed rivers, contribution of bed load to the sediment transport rate will be significant at low flow, while during floods, contribution of near-bed transport and suspended load will increase with flow intensity!! For projects with morphological aspects, not only suspended load must be measured, also bed load and near-bed load should be sampled; these ones are usually wrongly considered as negligible! Sediment Transport Measurements 5
6 Categories of samplers! Source: Erosion and sedimentation in the Nepal Himalaya Vic Galay, 1987! Sediment Transport Measurements 6
7 Flow and sediment distribution! Distribution of flow and sediment by size fraction shows that the fines are more homogeneously distributed in cross-sections than the coarse fractions.! This means that sediment should not be sampled only following the flow distribution (needs different strategy)! Sediment Transport Measurements 7
8 Isokinetic sampling principle! Sediment Transport Measurements 8
9 Brinkley sampler Bangladesh! Tube sampler, oriented in the flow direction. Is made of a central metal cylinder connected to 2 outer metal cylinders with rubber tubes. Closing is by turning the central cylinder so that the rubber tubes are squeezed so that the sediment is trapped. Disadvantage: no isokinetic sampling, small sample (little water and sediment).!

22 Variability of sediment transport!! The bed load data from the Mescalapa River in Mexico were obtained with the sampler US BM-84, 4 consecutive samples of 2 minutes in each vertical!! The results show differences between the 4 consecutive samples; however, the heterogeneous transversal distribution of the transport rates is clearly visible, due to morphological reasons (presence of sandbars, see last slides of the ppt)!

45 Bed form changes during floods! Sediment Transport Measurements 45 Changes during flood:! Large dunes flatten out (disappear) while small ones appear; flow conditions pass from lower to upper regime, what should happen for a Froude number larger than 0.8, while in the river, the Froude number was never > 0.3! For first time was observed that classification established in laboratory conditions at Colorado State University was not fitting field observations!

69 Flow and Sediment gauging Loire - Results! Data from 5 cross-sections at different flood stages show that there is no evident relation between flow and sediment discharge. Interesting to note is the variable percentage of the bed load in the total load, varying between 17 and 66%, much more than what is usually mentionned in the litterature.!

70 Influence of morphology!! In sand and gravel bed rivers, sediment transport is distributed according to the morphology (presence of bars, islands, structures)!! This explains the data in the Loire River and also those shown earlier about the Congo River!! The following sketches were made for explaining the interaction between bed load transport (sediment paths) and the morphology of a sandbar! Sediment Transport Measurements 70

78 Conclusion!! Our experience is that good sediment data can be collected by using apropriate methods and instruments, if based of an understanding of the dynamic behavour of sand or gravel bed rivers!! Field data are most of the time missing, not only because engineers and researchers consider them very difficult to collect, also because many prefer to rely on formula s, while today we do not have one single reliable universal formula or theory! Sediment Transport Measurements 78
79 To those who want trying! to measure sediment in rivers! It will not be easy! You ll have to accept adversity! If you do not like difficulties! If you want to remain happy! Do not measure sediment! Sediment Transport Measurements 79
