DESCRIPTION:
From the Back Cover
It is a valuable resource for students and researchers conducting research on fluvial geomorphology and sedimentology. This book explains the causes, mechanisms and dimension of sedimentation in the Rupnarayan River, as an example of a tidal river combining fluvial and marine processes. In addition, the result of the work is also useful to the engineers, hydrologists, planners and other authorities affected by a number of aspects related to sedimentation.. It is unique in addressing all the complexities arising from interactions of riverine and estuarine processes that lead to sedimentation and explaining all the river’s hydrodynamic and geomorphological characteristics. The book presents precise data generation using continuous field monitoring and robust laboratory analysis, to enable readers to develop a systematic understanding of sedimentation processes in the Rupnarayan River
