1 Sediments in a changing Environment Ecological implications of dredging and relocation in the Elbe estuary Günther Eichweber, WSD-Nord S1
2 Basic problem: sediment budget out of equilibrium S2
3 Effects: Increasing width of river bed S3
4 Effects: Increasing tidal amplitude Development of cross-section at the mouth [m ²] QsFl [m ] QsFl QsFl 09 MittelQsFl 350 Thb St. Pauli Polynomisch (MittelQsFl) Development of tidal amplitude Jahre S4
5 Effects: Increasing tidal amplitude Continuously decreasing low water levels S5
6 Effects: escalating cycle of fines by short-range relocation S6
7 Changing the relocation strategy: wide-range relocation of fines S7
8 Changing the relocation strategy: construction of a sediment trap to prevent marine material from intrusion into harbour S8
9 Valuable branches of the Elbe estuary S9
10 Wischhafen - attenuation of a branch today 200 years ago still 500 m wide and 10 m deep S10
11 Wischhafen - attenuation of a branch S11 Wischhafen Süderelbe today
12 Cutting off tributaries Mouth of Stör S12
13 Cutting off tributaries Mouth of Stör today S13
14 Effects: Siltation on flood plains reaches values of 60 cm in 30 ys by reduction of floodplains S14
15 Developing relocation strategies means assessment and integration of many criteria Criteria by economy: - size and cost of dredger - economy of work schedule - relocation distance - sediment reflux S15
16 Criteria by ecology: - toxicants, sinks of toxicants - effect on oxygen content - effect on benthic organisms - fish and spawn - siltation on mud flats - sediment accumulation by cycles S16
17 Sediment management means: the current and accurate solution of ever changing goal conflicts Minimizing the emission of toxicants locally overall In the estuary in the North sea Minimizing the impact on fish and benthic organisms In the marine section in the freshwater section S17
18 Solving goal conflicts: evaluation of long-term impacts for different relocation szenarios S18
19 Sediment management means the current and accurate solution of goal conflicts among regulations like London-, OSPAR-Convention Water Framework Directive Natura 2000-Directive Marine Strategy Framework Directive S19
20 Sediment management means the current and accurate solution of ever changing goal conflicts all of these have to be integrated in a management concept, but goal conflicts are not always insoluble: Optimization by engineering criteria and by ecological criteria may lead to similar concepts for relocation - Reducing reflux for economic reasons - Stabilizing sediment budget for engineering reasons - Reducing siltation of shallow areas - Promoting high oxygene values are to be followed by the same strategy of long range relocation! S20
21 Sediment management means the current and accurate solution of goal conflicts Oxygene levels show critical minima at Wedel in summer S21
22 For the implementation of river maintenance in the integrated management plan of the Natura 2000 Directive the following procedure is defined: - specific monitoring of endangered species (red herring) - monitoring of maintenance related parameters like toxicants, siltation, sinks of toxicants - evaluation of maintenance effects important to Natura 2000 goals - optimization of strategy of dredging and relocation by monitoring results S22
23 In order to solve goal conflicts, basic understanding and assessment of ecological effects is needed to prioritize criteria of - effects of morphology - effects of deposition - effects of overall water quality - local effects of toxicants - wide range long term effects of toxicants S23
24 Thank You for Your attention! S24
